Clarify the handling of characters following backslashes in raw strings.

Moved the mutex docs to be adjacent to the sched docs, since these are
meant to be used together (if they are used at all!).

Tim discovered another "bug" in my get_line() code: while the comments
said that n<0 was invalid, it was in fact still called with n<0 (when
PyFile_GetLine() was called with n<0).  In that case fortunately
executed the same code as for n==0.

Changed the comment to admit this fact, and changed Tim's MS speed
hack code to use 'n <= 0' as the criteria for the speed hack.

code duplication is to let us get away without a realloc whenever possible;
boosted the init buf size (the cutoff at which we *can* get away without
a realloc) from 100 to 200 so that more files can enjoy this boost; and
allowed other threads to run in all cases.  The last two cost something,
but not significantly:  in my fat test case, less than a 1% slowdown total.
Since my test case has a great many short lines, that's probably the worst
slowdown, too.  While the logic barely changed, there were lots of edits.
This also gets rid of the reference to fp->_cnt, so the last platform
assumption being made here is that fgets doesn't overwrite bytes
capriciously (== beyond the terminating null byte it must write).

variant that never needs to "search from the right".
Also fixed unlikely memory leak in get_line, if string size overflows INTMAX.
Also new std test test_bufio to make sure .readline() works.

realized that this behavior is already present in PyFile_GetLine(),
which is the only place that needs it.  A little refactoring of that
function made get_line_raw() redundant.

These will detect regression on SF bug #127271 and other import statement
bugs.

This closes SF bug #127271.

the mapping dictionaries can now contain 1-n mappings, meaning
that character ordinals may be mapped to strings or Unicode object,
e.g. 0x0078 ('x') -> u"abc", causing the ordinal to be replaced by
the complete string or Unicode object instead of just one character.

Another feature introduced by the patch is that of mapping oridnals to
the emtpy string. This allows removing characters.

The patch is different from patch #103100 in that it does not cause a
performance hit for the normal use case of 1-1 mappings.

In the process, I added an optional bufsize argument to the input()
function and the FileInput class.

- The raw_input() functionality is moved to a separate function.

- Drop GNU getline() in favor of getc_unlocked(), which exists on more
  platforms (and is even a tad faster on my system).

urljoin():  Make this conform to RFC 1808 for all examples given in that
            RFC (both "Normal" and "Abnormal"), so long as that RFC does
            not conflict the older RFC 1630, which also specified

an empty keywords dictionary (via apply() or the extended call syntax),
the keywords dict should be ignored.  If the keywords dict is not empty,
TypeError should be raised.  (Between the restructuring of the call
machinery and this patch, an empty dict in this situation would trigger
a SystemError via PyErr_BadInternalCall().)

Added regression tests to detect errors for this.
