"Zero cost" exception handling.
* Uses a lookup table to determine how to handle exceptions.
* Removes SETUP_FINALLY and POP_TOP block instructions, eliminating (most of) the runtime overhead of try statements.
* Reduces the size of the frame object by about 60%.
Modify the help in cpython/PC/launcher.c to show users that "latest" can be overridden by shebang, PY_PYTHON[n] or py.ini files. Also show that script [args] is optional by enclosing in square brackets.

Special thanks to INADA Naoki for pushing the patch through
the last mile, Serhiy Storchaka for reviewing the code, and to
Victor Stinner for suggesting the idea (originally implemented
in the PyPy project).
The __class__ cell used by zero-argument super() is now initialized
from type.__new__ rather than __build_class__, so class methods
relying on that will now work correctly when called from metaclass
methods during class creation.
Patch by Martin Teichmann.
