Gerhard Häring e11c9b3dfd Implemented feature request 2157: Converter names are cut off at '('
characters. This avoids the common case of something like 'NUMBER(10)' not
being parsed as 'NUMBER', like expected. Also corrected the docs about
converter names being case-sensitive. They aren't any longer.

Gregory P. Smith 19b4411181 Major improvements:
* Default to using /dev/tty for the password prompt and input before
  falling back to sys.stdin and sys.stderr.
* Use sys.stderr instead of sys.stdout.
* print the 'password may be echoed' warning to stream used to display
  the prompt rather than always sys.stderr.
* warn() with GetPassWarning when input may be echoed.

Christian Heimes e74c8f2879 Added kill, terminate and send_signal to subprocess.Popen
The bits and pieces for the Windows side were already in place. The POSIX side is trivial (as usual) and uses os.kill().

Christian Heimes 6f34109384 I finally got the time to update and merge Mark's and my trunk-math branch. The patch is collaborated work of Mark Dickinson and me. It was mostly done a few months ago. The patch fixes a lot of loose ends and edge cases related to operations with NaN, INF, very small values and complex math.
The patch also adds acosh, asinh, atanh, log1p and copysign to all platforms. Finally it fixes differences between platforms like different results or exceptions for edge cases. Have fun :)

Brett Cannon e974689038 Re-implement the 'warnings' module in C. This allows for usage of the
'warnings' code in places where it was previously not possible (e.g., the
parser). It could also potentially lead to a speed-up in interpreter start-up
if the C version of the code (_warnings) is imported over the use of the
Python version in key places.

Closes issue #1631171.

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 7adc776ea6 Issue 2408: remove the _types module
It was only used as a helper in types.py to access types (GetSetDescriptorType and MemberDescriptorType),
when they can easily be obtained with python code.
These expressions even work with Jython.

I don't know what the future of the types module is; (cf. discussion in http://bugs.python.org/issue1605 )
at least this change makes it simpler.
