Add API function simplefilter() that does not create or install
regular expressions to match message or module.  Extend the filters
data structure to store None as an alternative to re.compile("").

Move the _test() function to test_warnings and add some code to try
and avoid disturbing the global state of the warnings module.

- there's a weird variable name here (zimpimport), but I'll leave that
  for someone that's familiar with the ZIP import support

At this point, the problem appears particular to the OS/2 EMX port of
gdbm (which is at v1.7.3) - this combination produces a .pag file but
no .dir file.

A more sophisticated patch which checks magic numbers when dbm.library
indicates that dbm is linked to gdbm, and there is no .dir file, is
still attached to the above patch entry for reconsideration after 2.3
is released.

This checkin applies a workaround specific to the known failure case.

Expanded docs to have a quick start example showing how
to create and run tests.

This caused app bundles to get a type of "BNDL" instead of "APPL".
Apparently this is not a problem until you try to drag your app to
the dock.

Use Py_AtExit instead of atexit so we are called during Py_Finalize()
rather than during DLL teardown.

 * Extended DB & DBEnv set_get_returns_none functionality to take a
   "level" instead of a boolean flag.  The boolean 0 and 1 values still
   have the same effect.  A value of 2 extends the "return None instead
   of raising an exception" behaviour to the DBCursor set methods.
   This will become the default behaviour in pybsddb 4.2.
 * Fixed a typo in DBCursor.join_item method that made it crash instead
   of returning a value.  Obviously nobody uses it.  Wrote a test case
   for join and join_item.

Remove obsolete reference to deprecated exit_thread() function

markup.  Not currently needed, but easier to save this now than to
have to figure it out when we do.

- don't use \constant for literals; it's for "defined" constants
- fix various consistency issues
