This is, I guess, a few things the Python devs were just fed up with.
* "while 1" is now "while True"
* Types are compared with isinstance instead of ==
* Sort a list in one go with sorted()
My own twist is to also replace type('') with str, type(()) with tuple,
type([]) with list, type(1) with int, and type(5000.0) with float.
In py3k, imports are absolute unless using the "from . import" syntax.
This commit also solves a recursive import between Image, ImageColor, and
ImagePalette by delay-importing ImagePalette in Image.
I'm not too keen on this commit because the syntax is ugly. I might go back
and prefer the prettier "from PIL import".
y.has_key(x) is gone (use x in y), and keys(), values(), items(), and
range() all return views.
Some iterables needed to be packed into lists, either because the code
expected a list (such as "range(256) * 3") or because the original
collection was being modified (automatic global declarations).
The Tiff ImageFileDictionary is a special case and will be dealt with in
another commit.
