SF bug 1071087: os.walk example for deleting a full tree is sometime wrong.

Clarify that the example assumes no links are present; the point of the

platform-dependent link convolutions.
Also spell os.path.join() out in full, instead of using a shortcut import.
The bug reporter was confused by that too, and it's clearer this way.

Mistakes in the "sequence types" page:
...
* explanation for example with lists of lists made confusing use of
the word "contains" to mean "is built out of".
* wrong formula for slices with step. Is it ok to use LaTeX formulas
(which become images in the html document)? This version needs one
because it's based on a fraction. Just writing "\code{(j-i)/k}" here would
be ambiguous because it looks like a rounding-down-to-the-previous-integer
division, which is not what we need here. Of course we could write
"\code{float(j-i)/k}" but it just looks confusing.

Big email 3.0 API changes, with updated unit tests and documentation.
...
Briefly (from the NEWS file):
- Updates for the email package:
+ All deprecated APIs that in email 2.x issued warnings have been removed:
_encoder argument to the MIMEText constructor, Message.add_payload(),
Utils.dump_address_pair(), Utils.decode(), Utils.encode()
+ New deprecations: Generator.__call__(), Message.get_type(),
Message.get_main_type(), Message.get_subtype(), the 'strict' argument to
the Parser constructor. These will be removed in email 3.1.
+ Support for Python earlier than 2.3 has been removed (see PEP 291).
+ All defect classes have been renamed to end in 'Defect'.
+ Some FeedParser fixes; also a MultipartInvariantViolationDefect will be
added to messages that claim to be multipart but really aren't.
+ Updates to documentation.

A number of list examples used 66.6, but I doubt there's any box on which
...
repr(66.6) == "66.6", so doubt that the claimed output has ever been seen.
Changed it to 66.25 everywhere, and manually verified that the new claimed
output is correct.

Reverted the addition of a NORMALIZE_NUMBERS option, per Tim Peter's
...
request. Tim says that "correct 'fuzzy' comparison of floats cannot
be automated." (The motivation behind adding the new option
was verifying interactive examples in Python's latex documentation;
several such examples use numbers that don't print consistently on
different platforms.)
