Plistlib currently throws an exception when asked to decode a valid
.plist file that was generated by Apple's NSKeyedArchiver. Specifically,
this is caused by a byte 0x80 (signifying a UID) not being understood.
This fixes the problem by enabling the binary plist reader and writer
to read and write plistlib.UID objects.
* Fixed saving bytearrays.
* Identical objects will be saved only once.
* Equal references will be load as identical objects.
* Added support for saving and loading recursive data structures.
Values in the range of an unsigned long long, but outside of the range
of a signed long long were serialized as a negative value.
Due to a bug in PyObjC my test scripts indicated that the previous behavior
matched Apple's plist code, instead the handle large unsigned values correctly.
The change to plistlib.py is from a patch by Serhiy.
* Negative integer support in binary plists was broken
* Better exception for invalid data
* Fix the versionadded/versionchanged markup in the documentation
* Add the interface cleanup to what's new for 3.4
This patch adds support for binary plists on OSX to plistlib (based
on a patch by 'dpounces').
The patch also cleans up the API for the plistlib module.

#1330538: Improve comparison of xmlrpclib.DateTime and datetime instances.
Remove automatic handling of datetime.date and datetime.time.
This breaks backward compatibility, but python-dev discussion was strongly
against this automatic conversion; see the bug for a link.

- Added a chunk of plist data as generated by Cocoa's NSDictionary and
verify we output the same (including formatting)
- Changed the "literal" plist code to match the raw test data
