Fix-up and clean-up docs for int.bit_length().
...
* Replace dramatic footnote with in-line comment about possible round-off errors in logarithms of large numbers.
* Add comments to the pure python code equivalent.
* replace floor() with int() in the mathematical equivalent so the type is correct (should be an int, not a float).
* add abs() to the mathematical equivalent so that it matches the previous line that it is supposed to be equivalent to.
* make one combined example with a negative input.

Issue #4384 : Added logging integration with warnings module using captureWarnings(). This change includes a NullHandler which does nothing; it will be of use to library developers who want to avoid the "No handlers could be found for logger XXX" message which can appear if the library user doesn't configure logging.

Fixed issue #4233 .
...
Changed semantic of _fileio.FileIO's close() method on file objects with closefd=False.
The file descriptor is still kept open but the file object behaves like a closed file.
The FileIO object also got a new readonly attribute closefd.
