45169fbc80 Several tweaks: add construction from strings and .from_decimal(), change
__init__ to __new__ to enforce immutability, and remove "rational." from repr
and the parens from str.

bde4ae4bde Fixes (accepts patch) issue1339 - http://bugs.python.org/issue1339
- Factor out the duplication of EHLO/HELO in login() and sendmail() to
  a new function, ehlo_or_helo_if_needed().
- Use ehlo_or_helo_if_needed() in starttls()
- Check for the starttls exception in starttls() in the same way as
  login() checks for the auth extension.

7b1e917e41 Restore description of sys.dont_write_bytecode.
The duplication is intentional -- this paragraph is in a section
describing additions to the sys module, and there's a later section
that mentions the switch.  I think most people scan the what's-new and
don't read it in detail, so a bit of duplication is OK.

d7b00334f3 Add rational.Rational as an implementation of numbers.Rational with infinite
precision. This has been discussed at http://bugs.python.org/issue1682. It's
useful primarily for teaching, but it also demonstrates how to implement a
member of the numeric tower, including fallbacks for mixed-mode arithmetic.

I expect to write a couple more patches in this area:
 * Rational.from_decimal()
 * Rational.trim/approximate() (maybe with different names)
 * Maybe remove the parentheses from Rational.__str__()
 * Maybe rename one of the Rational classes
 * Maybe make Rational('3/2') work.

c94e2b5c12 Now that I've learnt about structseq objects I felt like converting sys.float_info to a structseq. It's
readonly and help(sys.float_info) explains the attributes nicely.
