  Add the ability to control the random seed used by regrtest.py -r.

  This adds a --randseed option, and makes regrtest.py -r indicate what random seed it's using so that that value can later be fed back to --randseed. This option is useful for tracking down test order-related issues found by make buildbottest, for example.

  #5324: document __subclasses__().

http://bugs.python.org/issue5542

If the socket is closed, the client has no chance to read the response
from the server.  EPIPE means that it isn't possible to write more
data from the socket, but not that it is impossible to read.

Also, various formatting changes.

Some tests that used to be slow are now fast, and there are brand new
slow tests.

RFC 2616 says that iso-8859-1 is the default charset for HTTP entity
bodies, but we encoded strings using ascii.  See
http://bugs.python.org/issue5314.  Changed docs and code to use
iso-8859-1.

Also fix some brokenness with passing a file as the body instead of a
string.

Add tests to show that some of this behavior actually works.

The server needs to use MessageClass to parse.

  Remove the sys.version_info shortcut, since they cause the APIs
