This class is useless unless subclassed. A subclass should define
class attributes with defaults for any values that are to be
managed by the Policy object. The constructor will then allow
non-default values to be set for these attributes at instance
creation time. The instance will be callable, taking these same
attributes keyword arguments, and returning a new instance
identical to the called instance except for those values changed
by the keyword arguments. Instances may be added, yielding new
instances with any non-default values from the right hand
operand overriding those in the left hand operand. That is,
A + B == A(<non-default values of B>)
The repr of an instance can be used to reconstruct the object
if and only if the repr of the values can be used to reconstruct
those values.

"""Controls for how messages are interpreted and formatted.
Most of the classes and many of the methods in the email package
accept Policy objects as parameters. A Policy object contains a set
of values and functions that control how input is interpreted and how
output is rendered. For example, the parameter 'raise_on_defect'
controls whether or not an RFC violation throws an error or not,
while 'max_line_length' controls the maximum length of output lines
when a Message is serialized.
Any valid attribute may be overridden when a Policy is created by
passing it as a keyword argument to the constructor. Policy
objects are immutable, but a new Policy object can be created
with only certain values changed by calling the Policy instance
with keyword arguments. Policy objects can also be added,
producing a new Policy object in which the non-default attributes
set in the right hand operand overwrite those specified in the
left operand.
Settable attributes:
raise_on_defect -- If true, then defects should be raised
as errors. Default False.
linesep -- string containing the value to use as
separation between output lines. Default '\n'.
must_be_7bit -- output must contain only 7bit clean data.
Default False.
max_line_length -- maximum length of lines, excluding 'linesep',
during serialization. None means no line
wrapping is done. Default is 78.
Methods:
register_defect(obj, defect)
defect is a Defect instance. The default implementation appends defect
to the objs 'defects' attribute.
handle_defect(obj, defect)
intended to be called by parser code that finds a defect. If
raise_on_defect is True, defect is raised as an error, otherwise
register_defect is called.

Exception subclass. obj is the object on which the defect should be
registered if it is not raised. If the raise_on_defect is True, the
defect is raised as an error, otherwise the object and the defect are
passed to register_defect.
