Allow skipping of regression tests not supported on windows.  This reduces noise in the regression test suite for py3k on Windows.

  Add import_function method to test.test_support, and modify a number of
  tests that expect to be skipped if imports fail or functions don't
  exist to use import_function and import_module.  The ultimate goal is
  to change regrtest to not skip automatically on ImportError.  Checking
  in now to make sure the buldbots don't show any errors on platforms
  I can't direct test on.

  A few more test skips via import_module, and change import_module to
  return the error message produced by importlib, so that if an import
  in the package whose import is being wrapped is what failed the skip
  message will contain the name of that module instead of the name of the
  wrapped module.  Also fixed formatting of some previous comments.

get_file() no longer leaks a FILE structure.  If given a file descriptor, it calls dup() to get a new handle.  Then both the FILE object and the fd can be closed.
This is important, because otherwise, the leaked FILE object will be closed on process exit, causing assertions on Windows, e.g. in the test_multiprocessing.py regression test.

Forward-port of #992207 fix: document that the parser only accepts \\n newlines. (And remove a leftover footnote.)

  Global statements from one function leaked into parallel functions.

  Re http://bugs.python.org/issue4315

  The symbol table used the same name dictionaries to recursively
  analyze each of its child blocks, even though the dictionaries are
  modified during analysis.  The fix is to create new temporary
  dictionaries via the analyze_child_block().  The only information that
  needs to propagate back up is the names of the free variables.

  Add more comments and break out a helper function.  This code doesn't
  get any easier to understand when you only look at it once a year.

Request are now available as public attributes, e.g. full_url and
host.  The accessor methods are deprecated.  The implementation
replace the complicated __getattr__ machinery with a _parse() method.

The response from an HTTP request is now an HTTPResponse instance
instead of an addinfourl() wrapper instance.  The wrapper provided
minimal extract functionality and was undocumented.  The API of
addinfourl() was preserved, except for close hooks, by adding a few
methods and public attributes to the HTTPResponse class.
