Do not copy free variables to locals in class namespaces.
...
Fixes bug 1569356, but at the cost of a minor incompatibility in
locals(). Add test that verifies that the class namespace is not
polluted. Also clarify the behavior in the library docs.
Along the way, cleaned up the dict_to_map and map_to_dict
implementations and added some comments that explain what they do.

a TypeError. Trying to catch a string exception raises a DeprecationWarning.
References to string exceptions has been removed from the docs since they are
now just an error.
