qsize() raises NotImplementedError on OS X, don't use it.

Original patch by Nicolas Estibals.  My tweaks to the patch were mostly
style/cosmetic, and adding more tests.

Move also the "ready" trigger after the installation of the signal handler and
the call to siginterrupt().

Use a timeout of 5 seconds instead of 3. Two seconds are supposed to be enough,
but some of our buildbots are really slow (especially the FreeBSD 6 VM).

Backport commits 968b9ff9a059 and aff0a7b0cb12 from the default branch to 3.2
branch. Extract of the changelog messages:

"The previous tests used time.sleep() to synchronize two processes. If the host
was too slow, the test could fail.

The new tests only use one process, but they use a subprocess to:

- have only one thread
- have a timeout on the blocking read (select cannot be used in the test,
select always fail with EINTR, the kernel doesn't restart it)
- not touch signal handling of the parent process"

and

"Add a basic synchronization code between the child and the parent processes:
the child writes "ready" to stdout."

I replaced .communicate(timeout=3.0) by an explicit waiting loop using
Popen.poll().

TemporaryFileTests has tests for os.tempnam() and os.tmpfile(), functions
removed from Python 3.

Move fdopen() tests to the FileTests testcase to test fdopen() on a file
descriptor, not on a directory descriptor (which raises an error on Windows).

py-list displays the error. py-bt ignores the error (the filename and line

We don't need to create a temporary buffered binary or text file object just to
create an empty file.

Replace also os.fdopen(handle).close() by os.close(handle).
