Fixes for shared 2.6 code that implements PEP 3101, advanced string
formatting.
Includes:
- Modifying tests for basic types to use __format__ methods, instead
of builtin "format".
- Adding PyObject_Format.
- General str/unicode cleanup discovered when backporting to 2.6.
- Removing datetimemodule.c's time_format, since it was identical
to date_format.
The files in Objects/stringlib that implement PEP 3101 (stringdefs.h,
unicodedefs.h, formatter.h, string_format.h) are identical in trunk
and py3k. Any changes from here on should be made to trunk, and
changes will propogate to py3k).
