Facundo Batista 57d5669f4b Now in find, rfind, index, and rindex, you can use None as defaults,
as usual with slicing (both with str and unicode strings).  This
fixes issue 1259.

For str only the stringobject.c file was modified.  But for unicode,
I needed to repeat in the four functions a lot of code, so created
a new function that does part of the job for them (and placed it in
find.h, following a suggestion of Barry).

Also added tests for this behaviour.

bits shared by the stringobject and unicodeobject implementations (and
possibly other modules, in a not too distant future).

the stuff in here is included into relevant places; see the individual
source files for details.

--------------------------------------------------------------------
the following defines used by the different modules:

STRINGLIB_CHAR

    the type used to hold a character (char or Py_UNICODE)

STRINGLIB_EMPTY

    a PyObject representing the empty string

int STRINGLIB_CMP(STRINGLIB_CHAR*, STRINGLIB_CHAR*, Py_ssize_t)

    compares two strings. returns 0 if they match, and non-zero if not.

Py_ssize_t STRINGLIB_LEN(PyObject*)

    returns the length of the given string object (which must be of the
    right type)

PyObject* STRINGLIB_NEW(STRINGLIB_CHAR*, Py_ssize_t)

    creates a new string object

STRINGLIB_CHAR* STRINGLIB_STR(PyObject*)

    returns the pointer to the character data for the given string
    object (which must be of the right type)
