Added two predictions:
  GET_ITER --> FOR_ITER
  FOR_ITER --> STORE_FAST or UNPACK_SEQUENCE

Improves timings on pybench and timeit.py. Pystone results are neutral.

Applied to common cases:
    COMPARE_OP is often followed by a JUMP_IF.
    JUMP_IF is usually followed by POP_TOP.

Shows improved timings on PyStone, PyBench, and specific tests
using timeit.py:
    python timeit.py -s "x=1" "if x==1: pass"
    python timeit.py -s "x=1" "if x==2: pass"
    python timeit.py -s "x=1" "if x: pass"
    python timeit.py -s "x=100" "while x!=1: x-=1"

Potential future candidates:
    GET_ITER predicts FOR_ITER
    FOR_ITER predicts STORE_FAST or UNPACK_SEQUENCE

Also, applied missing goto fast_next_opcode to DUP_TOPX.

Add a -v option that shows the raw times.  Repeating it cranks up the
display precision.

Always use the "best of N" form of output.

  function, if supported.  (SF patch #675422, by Stuart Bishop.)

- Make all local variables in the template start with an underscore,
  to prevent name conflicts with the timed code.

- Added a method to print a traceback that shows source lines from the
  expanded template.

- Use that method in main().

This closes SF patch #669683.

My previous patches should have used fast_next_opcode
in a few places instead of continue.

Also, applied one PyInt_AS_LONG macro in a place where
the type had already been checked.
