An argparse option parser created with a prefix_chars that did not
include a '-' would happily add -h and --help options, and then throw
an error when it tried to format the help because the - was an invalid
prefix character. This patch makes it use the first character of
prefix_chars as the character for the help options if and only if '-'
is not one of the valid prefix_chars.
Fix by Theodore Turocy, unit tests by Catherine Devlin.

Remove Tools/modulator, a reference to it in the docs, and a screenshot of it.
(I asked the BDFL first, and he approved removing it. The last actual bugfix
to Tools/modulator was in 2001; since then all changes have been search-and-replace:
string methods, whitespace fixes, etc.)

Manually copy patch for bug 7250 from the release26-maint branch. I suck

Initial commit of the argparse library, based on argparse 1.1.
Docs still need some updating to make getopt and optparse match the wording promised in the PEP.
There are also probably a number of :class:ArgumentParser etc. links that could be added to the argparse documentation.
