frombytes() and tobytes(), respectively, to avoid confusion.  Furthermore,
array.frombytes(), array.extend() as well as the array.array()
constructor now accept bytearray objects.  Patch by Thomas Jollans.

And fix the email package to encode to ASCII instead of ``raw-unicode-escape`` before ASCII-to-binary decoding.

  Better exception messages for unittest assert methods.

  - unittest.assertNotEqual() now uses the inequality operator (!=) instead

  - Default assertTrue and assertFalse messages are now useful.

    useful error messages are shown in addition to explicit messages passed to assert methods.

mechanism for skipping some of the tests for overflow behaviour when
