Send/recv on the nil channel block forever; close panics.
If a nil channel is used in select - corresponding case is never selected.

Setting channel to nil is a usual idiom in Go to disable processing some
cases in select. Nil channel is also used as "done" for e.g.
context.Background() - for contexts that can be never canceled.

It was deprecated and scheduled to be removed in 942ee900 (golang:
Deprecate @method(cls) in favour of @func(cls)).

It will be fixed on next Gevent release, however until then the crash is there
and we have to workaround: we can skip patching existing locks as it will be
the same behaviour of next Gevent release, since its just not possible to patch
locks created via instantiated C-level classes:

https://github.com/gevent/gevent/commit/d0e04658

We are doing monkey-patching very early, so it should be safe.

Channel tests are passing on an idle machine. However if there is
another load - e.g. in the presence of simultaneous Firefox start,
channel tests break, for example:

	    def test_select():
	        ...

	        # non-blocking try recv: ok
	        ch = chan()
	        done = chan()
	        def _():
	            for i in range(N):
	                ch.send(i)
	            done.close()
	        go(_)

	        for i in range(N):
	            tdelay()
	            if i % 2:
	                _, _rx = select(
	                        ch.recv,
	                        default,
	                )
	                assert (_, _rx) == (0, i)
	            else:
	                _, _rx = select(
	                        ch.recv_,
	                        default,
	                )
	>               assert (_, _rx) == (0, (i, True))
	E               assert (1, None) == (0, (320, True))
	E                 At index 0 diff: 1 != 0
	E                 Use -v to get the full diff

	golang_test.py:209: AssertionError

The failure here is that it was default case selected, not ch.recv_. The
default was selected because the sending goroutine was not fast to
enqueue next send before we tried to receive. We were trying to make
sure that the sender will be enqueued first via adding 1ms time delay
before trying to receive, but in the presence of concurrent load spikes
that turns out to be not enough.

We could try to fix the test by increasing the time to sleep in tdelay,
make the tests more slow and still not 100% reliable. However we can
change the tests to instead actually wait for the condition that is
semantically required: a sender enqueued on the channel.

Do that everywhere where tdelay was used.

Now tests are faster (it was ~3s total, now it is ~ 0.5s total) and pass
irregardless of whether the machine is idle or otherwise loaded.

Debian started to ship PyPy3:

	https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=pypy3

Since we already have func (see 5146eb0b "Add support for defer &
recover") we can use @func for both plain functions and for methods.

For example instead of

	@func
	def my_function(...):
	    ...

	@method(MyClass)			<-- NOTE
	def my_method(self, ...):
	    ...

have it as

	@func
	def my_function(...):
	    ...

	@func(MyClass)				<-- NOTE
	def my_method(self, ...):
	    ...

which looks more similar to Go and exposes less golang keywords to a user.

Pymain was not adding e.g. directory of executed file to sys.path, and
as the result if there were e.g. 2 files

	dir/hello.py	# imports world
	dir/world.py

running `gpython dir/hello.py` would fail to import world.

The case for interactive console was also failing to setup sys.argv as
empty, so it was containing ['/path/to/gpython']. It was also, contrary
to standard python, unconditionally showing '>>>' prompt even when stdin
was not a tty.

Fix all that and add a test to cover pymain functionality.

Provide gpython interpreter, that sets UTF-8 as default encoding,
integrates gevent and puts go, chan, select etc into builtin namespace.
Please see details in the documentation added by this patch.

pymain was taken from kirr/go123@7a476082
(go123: tracing/pyruntraced: New tool to run Python code with tracepoints activated (draft))

We describe golang/testdata/ in MANIFEST.in, and that makes testdata to
be included into sdist. However testdata does not get installed.

Since, we want to be able to run pygolang tests, even on installed
package, we need the testdata files to be present there as well.

Fix it.

See https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html#including-data-files
for setuptools-related details.

Move version definition from setup.py to golang module so that it is
available at runtime with plain golang.__version__ .

A comma was missing - this way last element was 'funcgimport', not
'func' and 'gimport', and so `from golang import *` was failing.

	.../pygolang/golang/strconv_test.py:75: PytestDeprecationWarning: raises(..., 'code(as_a_string)') is deprecated, use the context manager form or use `exec()` directly
	...

See https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/deprecations.html#raises-warns-with-a-string-as-the-second-argument

Until now it was not included by `python setup.py sdist`.

On this topic, also include README.rst explicitly, since even if it is
currently implicitly included, that might change some day and break us.

This are functions to decode quotation that was produced by
strconv.quote().

Move quote implementation from gcompat to strconv. Make quote work on both
unicode|bytes string input and produce the same output type. Preserve qq
(still remaining in gcompat) to always produce str, since that is used
in prints.

Stop hiding qq and benchmarking bits in changelog only - add their
description into additional sections in readme.

Since py.bench description is now in readme, there is no need to keep
py.bench example in the changelog.

All tests pass.

`defer` allows to schedule a cleanup to be executed when current function
returns. It is similar to `try`/`finally` but does not force the cleanup part
to be far away in the end. For example::

   wc = wcfs.join(zurl)    │     wc = wcfs.join(zurl)
   defer(wc.close)         │     try:
                           │        ...
   ...                     │        ...
   ...                     │        ...
   ...                     │     finally:
                           │        wc.close()

For completeness there is `recover` and `panic` that allow to program with
Go-style error handling, for example::

   def _():
      r = recover()
      if r is not None:
         print("recovered. error was: %s" % (r,))
   defer(_)

   ...

   panic("aaa")

But `recover` and `panic` are probably of less utility since they can be
practically natively modelled with `try`/`except`.

If `defer` is used, the function that uses it must be wrapped with `@func` or
`@method` decorators.

The implementation is partly inspired by work of Denis Kolodin:

- https://habr.com/post/191786
- https://stackoverflow.com/a/43028386/9456786

While the second phase of select is running we queue send/recv cases to
corresponding channels. At some point - when some of the cases are
already queued - a peer goroutine might try to send/recv on that
channel. And it will succeed because a waiter was queued to the channel.

At the same time select is continuing its enqueue loop and before enqueuing
to a channel it tries to send/recv there. If that channel became just ready
(i.e. just after select poll phase) the try to send/recv will succeed. This
means that actually 2 select cases could be executed at the same time.

Fix it by carefully checking whether some case already won before trying
to send/recv on a channel.

This fixes the test failures that were demonstrated by previous 2 patches.

Previous select-select test uses 2 channels and recreats them every
iteration. However the bug we just saw in b51b8d5d (select: Run tests
more thoroughly) is of parasitic nature - where misbehaviour depends on
what state has been left there from previous select and whether the race
to get to that state fast enough succeeded.

So add a more secialized test which tries to trigger the parasitic
effects that depend on previous state left by select on the channels.

The test, similarly to b51b8d5d, currently fails.

With more iterations it triggers a bug:

There was no test for @method so far and that's why it went unnoticed.
But on Python3 it breaks on f.func_name:

	In [3]: def f(): pass

	In [4]: f.func_name
	---------------------------------------------------------------------------

	----> 1 f.func_name

	AttributeError: 'function' object has no attribute 'func_name'

Fix it by using f.__name__ which works on both py2 and py3.

Add test for @method to make sure it doesn't break unnoticed.

This is the Go behaviour, as demonstratd by the following program:

---- 8< ----
package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"time"
)

func work(w int) {
	for i := 0; ; i++ {
		fmt.Printf("w%d: %d\n", w, i)
		time.Sleep(1*time.Second)
	}
}

func main() {
	for i := 0; i < 100; i++ {
		go work(i)
	}

	time.Sleep(3*time.Second)
	println("main: exit")
}
---- 8< ----

+ corresponding bits in golang.testing package.

py.bench description follows:

"""
py.bench, similarly to py.test, discovers bench_* functions and Bench* classes
and then runs each discovered benchmark via golang.testing.benchmark. Similarly
to `go test -bench`, benchmarking results are printed in Go benchmark format.

For example, running py.bench on the following code::

    def bench_add(b):
        x, y = 1, 2
        for i in xrange(b.N):
            x + y

gives something like::

    Benchmarkadd    50000000        0.020 µs/op

The implementation is based on t/py.bench from Wendelin.core - see
following commits for its history:

Python3 complains that there is no .im_func & friends of a method.
Workaround it all with compat code.

This patch made its first step as a way to teach qq to also work on
python3. However the differences in str / unicode and escapes in between
py2 / py3 quickly popped out and then it became easier to just handle
whole escaping logic myself.

The implementation is based on

	go123@c0bbd06e

and byproduct of manual handling is that now we don't escape printable
UTF-8 characters.

Go benchmark format is described here:

	https://github.com/golang/proposal/blob/master/design/14313-benchmark-format.md

Additionally we support extension to that format:

	- a line starting with `*** neotest:` denotes start of neotest extension block.
	  The block consists of labels describing e.g. hardware and software on a node.
	  The block ends with a blank line.
	  Labels in the block are not added to benchmarking lines from main stream.
	  The block itself should not contain benchmark lines.

and upon processing benchmark units are normalized to common base,
similarly to

	golang.org/cl/82955
	golang.org/cl/82956
	golang.org/cl/82957

Orignally implemented here:

	neo@502d9477
	neo@a9b10a45
	neo@f5fec740
	neo@916782b6

Not only we can import modules by full path, but now we can also spawn
threads/coroutines and exchange data in between them with the same
primitives and semantic as in Go.

The bulk of new functionality is copied from here:

- `chan` and `select` provide channels with Go semantic.
- `method` allows to define methods separate from class.
- `gimport` allows to import python modules by full path in a Go workspace.

Module gopath provides way to import python modules by full path in a Go workspace.

For example

    lonet = gopath.gimport('lab.nexedi.com/kirr/go123/xnet/lonet')

will import either

    lab.nexedi.com/kirr/go123/xnet/lonet.py, or
