Michael Foord 345b2fe21e Better exception messages for unittest assert methods.
- unittest.assertNotEqual() now uses the inequality operator (!=) instead
  of the equality operator.

- Default assertTrue and assertFalse messages are now useful.

- TestCase has a longMessage attribute. This defaults to False, but if set to True
  useful error messages are shown in addition to explicit messages passed to assert methods.

by Google and completed with help from mfoord and GvR at PyCon 2009 sprints.

Barry Warsaw dbf95a3643 A fix for issue 1974, inspired by the patch from Andi Albrecht (aalbrecht),
though with some changes by me.  This patch should not be back ported or
forward ported.  It's a bit too risky for 2.6 and 3.x does things fairly
differently.

Antoine Pitrou f8387af262 Issue #4688: Add a heuristic so that tuples and dicts containing only
untrackable objects are not tracked by the garbage collector. This can
reduce the size of collections and therefore the garbage collection overhead
on long-running programs, depending on their particular use of datatypes.

(trivia: this makes the "binary_trees" benchmark from the Computer Language
Shootout 40% faster)
