Changes to lib2to3 are in a separate commit. Work is for issue #2885.

all the upper level libraries that use it, including urllib2.
Added and fixed some tests, and changed docs correspondingly.
Thanks to John J Lee for the patch and the pusing, :)

r58207 and r58247 patch logic is reversed.  I noticed this when I
tried to use urllib to retrieve a file which required auth.

Fix that and add a test for 401 error to verify.

there's no urgent need to fix this today.

Still need to write tests for _urlopener usage and urlretrieve.

imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name
such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support".

This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the
duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by
