Added a Tk error dialog to run.py inform the user if the subprocess can't
connect to the user GUI process. Added a timeout to the GUI's listening
socket. Added Tk error dialogs to PyShell.py to announce a failure to bind
the port or connect to the subprocess. Clean up error handling during
connection initiation phase. This is an update of Python Patch 778323.
