Standardize on test.test_support.run_unittest() (as opposed to a mix of run_unittest() and run_suite()). Also, add functionality to run_unittest() that admits usage of unittest.TestLoader.loadTestsFromModule().

Convert test_global, test_scope and test_grammar to unittest.
...
I tried to enclose all tests which must be run at the toplevel
(instead of inside a method) in exec statements.

A few updates about how/where to import test_support from.

Get rid of relative imports in all unittests. Now anything that
...
imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name
such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support".
This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the
duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by
Lib/email/test/data).
Now Tim and Jack can have at it. :)

Rewrote the PyUnit description so that it now recommends to use
...
run_suite() instead of run_unittest(). Best practice is to plan for
multiple test classes.

Teach regrtest how to pass on doctest failure msgs. This is done via a
...
horridly inefficient hack in regrtest's Compare class, but it's about as
clean as can be: regrtest has to set up the Compare instance before
importing a test module, and by the time the module *is* imported it's too
late to change that decision. The good news is that the more tests we
convert to unittest and doctest, the less the inefficiency here matters.
Even now there are few tests with large expected-output files (the new
cost here is a Python-level call per .write() when there's an expected-
output file).

When Tim untabified this file, his editor accidentally assumed 4-space
...
tabs. The title was centered using 8-byte tabs, however, and the
result looked strange. Fixed this.

Remove test_doctest's expected-output file.
...
Change test_doctest and test_difflib to pass regrtest's notion of
verbosity on to doctest.
Add explanation for a dozen "new" things to test/README.
