Brian Curtin e5aa886b44 Implement #1220212. Add os.kill support for Windows.
os.kill takes one of two newly added signals, CTRL_C_EVENT and
CTRL_BREAK_EVENT, or any integer value. The events are a special case
which work with subprocess console applications which implement a
special console control handler. Any other value but those two will
cause os.kill to use TerminateProcess, outright killing the process.

This change adds win_console_handler.py, which is a script to implement
SetConsoleCtrlHandler and applicable handler function, using ctypes.

subprocess also gets another attribute which is a necessary flag to
creationflags in Popen in order to send the CTRL events.

Brian Curtin e33fa887d3 Implement #7347. Add CreateKeyEx, DeleteKeyEx, and update _winreg tests.
*ReflectionKey functions used to not be documented or tested, but they are
now sufficiently documented and tested on platforms where they apply.
Additionally, fixed a bug in QueryReflectionKey which was returning an
incorrect value.

All tests pass from XP through Windows 7, on 32 and 64-bit platforms.

Mark Dickinson 99d8096c17 Issue #2531: Make float-to-decimal comparisons return correct results.
Float to decimal comparison operations now return a result based on
the numeric values of the operands.  Decimal.__hash__ has also been
fixed so that Decimal and float values that compare equal have equal
hash value.
