Serhiy Storchaka e0ed2d75c8 Issue #19936: Added executable bits or shebang lines to Python scripts which
requires them.  Disable executable bits and shebang lines in test and
benchmark files in order to prevent using a random system python, and in
source files of modules which don't provide command line interface.

Walter Dörwald abb02e5994 Patch #1436130: codecs.lookup() now returns a CodecInfo object (a subclass
of tuple) that provides incremental decoders and encoders (a way to use
stateful codecs without the stream API). Functions
codecs.getincrementaldecoder() and codecs.getincrementalencoder() have
been added.

Marc-André Lemburg 716cf91839 Moved the encoding map building logic from the individual mapping
codec files to codecs.py and added logic so that multi mappings
in the decoding maps now result in mappings to None (undefined mapping)
in the encoding maps.

Marc-André Lemburg 2d9204199f This patch changes the way the string .encode() method works slightly
and introduces a new method .decode().

The major change is that strg.encode() will no longer try to convert
Unicode returns from the codec into a string, but instead pass along
the Unicode object as-is. The same is now true for all other codec
return types. The underlying C APIs were changed accordingly.

Note that even though this does have the potential of breaking
existing code, the chances are low since conversion from Unicode
previously took place using the default encoding which is normally
set to ASCII rendering this auto-conversion mechanism useless for
most Unicode encodings.

The good news is that you can now use .encode() and .decode() with
much greater ease and that the door was opened for better accessibility
of the builtin codecs.

As demonstration of the new feature, the patch includes a few new
codecs which allow string to string encoding and decoding (rot13,
hex, zip, uu, base64).
