Code contributed by Matt Giuca.  quote() now encodes the input
  before quoting, unquote() decodes after unquoting.  There are
  new arguments to change the encoding and errors settings.
  There are also new APIs to skip the encode/decode steps.
  [un]quote_plus() are also affected.

  Backport of r63826.

  Optimization of str.format() for cases with str, unicode, int, long,
  and float arguments.  This gives about 30% speed improvement for the
  simplest (but most common) cases.  This patch skips the __format__
  dispatch, and also avoids creating an object to hold the format_spec.

  Unfortunately there's a complication in 2.6 with int, long, and float
  because they always expect str format_specs.  So in the unicode
  version of this optimization, just check for unicode objects.  int,
  float, long, and str can be added later, if needed.
