* Trivial cleanups following bpo-31370

* Also cleanup the "importlib._bootstrap_external" module

When ``None`` was passed as a ``REG_BINARY`` value to SetValueEx,
PyMem_DEL was called on an uninitialized buffer.  Patch by John Ehresman.

(Also an incidental typo fix in a comment in test_winreg)

Patch by Jeremy Kloth.

When converting REG_DWORD registry values into Python, the conversion
needs to be made from an *unsigned* long (k instead of i) to match the
DWORD type.

When converting REG_DWORD registry values into Python ints, the conversion
needs to be made from an *unsigned* long to match the DWORD type.

This fixes a ValueError seen in winreg.SetValueEx when passed long
winreg.REG_DWORD values that should be supported by the underlying API.

This fixes an OverflowError seen in winreg.SetValueEx when passed
winreg.REG_DWORD values that should be supported by the underlying API.

The concept of what was unexpected was typically defined as "some
depencendy wasn't installed", which isn't unexpected at all as it's
totally optional. Since it confuses new contributors as they think
something is wrong with their installation it seems sensible to get
rid of the concept.

This change also adds the concept of optional tests that are required
to work on a specific platform(s) (e.g. test_winreg on Windows). This
should help catch compile issues instead of a test being blindly
skipped even when it should have run.

The skipped test list in the future can also print out the reason for
being skipped to make it more obvious as to why the skipping occurred.

RegDeleteKeyA fails with ERROR_MORE_DATA if the length of 2nd
parameter exceeds 260.

importing encoded modules that do not depend on specific stdlib
modules being encoded in a certain way.

DeleteKeyEx, and OpenKeyEx.

Note that CKE and DKE are new functions for 3.2 so I didn't give them a
versionchanged because of the existing versionadded. OpenKeyEx already
existed so it gets a versionchanged tag.

ERROR_MORE_DATA, requiring another call to get the remaining data.

Patch by Daniel Stutzbach

Add CreateKeyEx and DeleteKeyEx, along with test improvements.

NotImplementedError on Windows XP and below.

*ReflectionKey functions used to not be documented or tested, but they are
now sufficiently documented and tested on platforms where they apply.
Additionally, fixed a bug in QueryReflectionKey which was returning an
incorrect value.

All tests pass from XP through Windows 7, on 32 and 64-bit platforms.
