Tim Peters 38fd5b6413 Derived from Martin's SF patch 110609: support unbounded ints in %d,i,u,x,X,o formats.
Note a curious extension to the std C rules:  x, X and o formatting can never produce
a sign character in C, so the '+' and ' ' flags are meaningless for them.  But
unbounded ints *can* produce a sign character under these conversions (no fixed-
width bitstring is wide enough to hold all negative values in 2's-comp form).  So
these flags become meaningful in Python when formatting a Python long which is too
big to fit in a C long.  This required shuffling around existing code, which hacked
x and X conversions to death when both the '#' and '0' flags were specified:  the
hacks weren't strong enough to deal with the simultaneous possibility of the ' ' or
'+' flags too, since signs were always meaningless before for x and X conversions.
Isomorphic shuffling was required in unicodeobject.c.
Also added dozens of non-trivial new unbounded-int test cases to test_format.py.

/*
Type PyStringObject represents a character string. An extra zero byte is
reserved at the end to ensure it is zero-terminated, but a size is
present so strings with null bytes in them can be represented. This
is an immutable object type.
There are functions to create new string objects, to test
an object for string-ness, and to get the
string value. The latter function returns a null pointer
if the object is not of the proper type.
There is a variant that takes an explicit size as well as a
variant that assumes a zero-terminated string. Note that none of the
functions should be applied to nil objects.
*/
/* Two speedup hacks. Caching the hash saves recalculation of a
string's hash value. Interning strings (which requires hash
caching) tries to ensure that only one string object with a given
value exists, so equality tests are one pointer comparison.
Together, these can speed the interpreter up by as much as 20%.
Each costs the size of a long or pointer per string object. In
addition, interned strings live until the end of times. If you are
concerned about memory footprint, simply comment the #define out
here (and rebuild everything!). */
