When simple query dialogs (tkinter.simpledialog), message boxes
(tkinter.messagebox) or color choose dialog (tkinter.colorchooser)
are created without arguments master and parent, and the default
root window is not yet created, a new temporary hidden root window
will be created automatically. It will not be set as the default root
window and will be destroyed right after closing the dialog window.
It will help to use these simple dialog windows in programs which do
not need other GUI.
Previously, message boxes and color chooser created the blank root
window and left it after closing the dialog window, and query dialogs
just raised an exception.

* Tkinter functions and constructors which need a default root window
raise now RuntimeError with descriptive message instead of obscure
AttributeError or NameError if it is not created yet or cannot
be created automatically.
* Add tests for all functions which use default root window.
* Fix import in the pynche script.
The function accepts now the representation of the default state as
empty sequence (as returned by Style.map()).
The structure of the result is now the same on all platform
and does not depend on the value of wantobjects.
This fixes the test failure with Tk 6.8.10 which is caused by changes to how Tk rounds the `from`, `to` and `tickinterval` arguments. This PR uses `noconv` if the patchlevel is greater than or equal to 8.6.10 (credit to Serhiy for this idea as it is much simpler than what I previously proposed).
Going into more detail for those who want it, the Tk change was made in [commit 591f68c](591f68cb38) and means that the arguments listed above are rounded relative to the value of `from`. However, when rounding the `from` argument ([line 623](591f68cb38/generic/tkScale.c (L623))), it is rounded relative to itself (i.e. rounding `0`) and therefore the assigned value for `from` is always what is given (no matter what values of `from` and `resolution`).

On Windows use UTF-16 (or UTF-32 for 32-bit Tcl_UniChar) with the
"surrogatepass" error handler for converting to/from Tcl Unicode objects.
On Linux use UTF-8 with the "surrogateescape" error handler for converting
to/from Tcl String objects.
Converting strings from Tcl to Python and back now never fails
(except MemoryError).
* Fix multiple typos in code comments
* Add spacing in comments (test_logging.py, test_math.py)
* Fix spaces at the beginning of comments in test_logging.py
* tracing in the "u" mode now works
* trace_vdelete() with wrong mode no longer break tracing
* trace_vinfo() now always returns a list of pairs of strings
tkinter.Variable class. They replace old methods trace_variable, trace,
trace_vdelete and trace_vinfo that use obsolete Tcl commands and might
not work in future versions of Tcl.
and selection_toggle() of ttk.TreeView now allow to pass multiple items as
multiple arguments instead of passing them as a tuple. Deprecated
undocumented ability of calling the selection() method with arguments.
