[issue1158] %f format for datetime objects

[Skip Montanaro]

Brett,

Continuing the discussion of strptime... It returns a time.struct_time.
Would it cause too much breakage (only do this in 3.0) to add a tm_usec
field to the end of that object?  It seems a lot of bits of code might
still expect a length 9 tuple-ish thing and do this:

  yy, mm, dd, hh, mm, ss, wk, j, tz = time.strptime(...)

If we could make that change for 3.0 that might allow strptime to parse
%f format codes.
