45169fbc80 Several tweaks: add construction from strings and .from_decimal(), change
__init__ to __new__ to enforce immutability, and remove "rational." from repr
and the parens from str.

bde4ae4bde Fixes (accepts patch) issue1339 - http://bugs.python.org/issue1339
- Factor out the duplication of EHLO/HELO in login() and sendmail() to
  a new function, ehlo_or_helo_if_needed().
- Use ehlo_or_helo_if_needed() in starttls()
- Check for the starttls exception in starttls() in the same way as
  login() checks for the auth extension.

d7b00334f3 Add rational.Rational as an implementation of numbers.Rational with infinite
precision. This has been discussed at http://bugs.python.org/issue1682. It's
useful primarily for teaching, but it also demonstrates how to implement a
member of the numeric tower, including fallbacks for mixed-mode arithmetic.

I expect to write a couple more patches in this area:
 * Rational.from_decimal()
 * Rational.trim/approximate() (maybe with different names)
 * Maybe remove the parentheses from Rational.__str__()
 * Maybe rename one of the Rational classes
 * Maybe make Rational('3/2') work.

c94e2b5c12 Now that I've learnt about structseq objects I felt like converting sys.float_info to a structseq. It's
readonly and help(sys.float_info) explains the attributes nicely.

d08a8ebf2a Closing issue1761.
Surprising behaviour of the "$" regexp: it matches the
end of the string, AND just before the newline at the end
of the string::

    re.sub('$', '#', 'foo\n') == 'foo#\n#'

Python is consistent with Perl and the pcre library, so
we just document it.
Guido prefers "\Z" to match only the end of the string.
