merge the io-c branch: C implementation of the io module

The main io module now uses the C implementation.  The Python one still exists
in Lib/_pyio.py for ease of testing new features and usefulness to other
implementers.

The rewrite was done by Antoine Pitrou and Amaury Forgeot d'Arc.  I was slightly
helpful at the end. :)


Following are the log messages from the io-c branch:
