Fix formatting of values with embedded newlines when rfc2047 encoding
Before this patch if a value being encoded had an embedded newline,
the line following the newline would have no leading whitespace,
and the whitespace it did have was encoded into the word. Now
the existing whitespace gets turned into a blank, the way it does
in other header reformatting, and the _continuation_ws gets added
at the beginning of the encoded line.

#10960: fix 'stat' links, link to lstat from stat, general tidy of stat doc.
Original patch by Michal Nowikowski, with some additions and wording
fixes by me.
I changed the wording from 'Performs a stat system call' to 'Performs
the equivalent of a stat system call', since on Windows there are no
stat/lstat system calls involved. I also extended Michal's breakout
of the attributes into a list to the other paragraphs, and rearranged
the order of the paragraphs in the 'stat' docs to make it flow
better and put it in what I think is a more logical/useful order.

#5871: protect against header injection attacks.
This makes Header.encode throw a HeaderParseError if it winds up
formatting a header such that a continuation line has no leading
whitespace and looks like a header. Since Header accepts values
containing newlines and preserves them (and this is by design), without
this fix any program that took user input (say, a subject in a web form)
and passed it to the email package as a header was vulnerable to header
injection attacks. (As far as we know this has never been exploited.)
Thanks to Jakub Wilk for reporting this vulnerability.

#9824: encode , and ; in cookie values so that browsers don't split on them
There is a small chance of backward incompatibility here, but only for
non-SimpleCookie applications reading SimpleCookie generated cookies. Even
then, any such ap is likely to be handling escaped values already, and it would
take a fairly perverse implementation of unescaping to fail to unescape these
newly escaped chars, so the risk seems minimal.

#5258/#10642: print fn, line, traceback and continue when .pth file is broken
If a .pth file contained an error, it could cause a traceback in site.py,
terminating its processing. In 2.7 and 3.2, the interpreter will then not
start. Previously, a message would print saying to use -v to get the
traceback. In either case, the traceback generated for a failed .pth file did
not include the .pth filename, making it difficult to debug the problem. Now
site.py reports not only the .pth filename but also the line number causing the
error, and just skips the remainder of the file.
