Issue #7701: Fix crash in binascii.b2a_uu() in debug mode when given a
1-byte argument. Patch by Victor Stinner.

with ASCII value less than 32. Also, it correctly quotes dots only if
they occur on a single line, as opposed to the previous behavior of
quoting dots if they are the second character of any line.
Several functions adopted the strategy of altering a full lengthed
string copy and resizing afterwards. That would fail if the initial
string was short enough (0 or 1) to be interned. Interning precluded
the subsequent resizing operation.
The solution was to make sure the initial string was at least two
characters long.
Added tests to verify that all binascii functions do not crater when
given an empty string argument.
invalid, rather than returning a string of random garbage of the
estimated result length. Closes SF patch #703471 by Hye-Shik Chang.
Will backport to 2.2-maint (consider it done.)
imports of test modules now import from the test package. Other
related oddities are also fixed (like DeprecationWarning filters that
weren't specifying the full import part, etc.). Also did a general
code cleanup to remove all "from test.test_support import *"'s. Other
from...import *'s weren't changed.
and replaces them with a new API verify(). As a result the regression
suite will also perform its tests in optimization mode.
