Summary: make inspect.stack() work with PyShell

Initial Comment:
I'm on Python 2.2b2 on Windows.

Changed the 'inspect' module to use 'linecache' for 
loading source code.  This is more efficient.  
Also, 'inspect' now can see the source code of stuff 
entered in the IDLE PyShell.

E.g. In IDLE, type:
>>> import inspect
>>> inspect.stack()[0]

Without the patch, the output would be like this:
(<frame object at 0x009299D0>, None, 1, '?', None, 
None)

With this patch:
(<frame object at 0x009E9580>, '<pyshell#36>', 1, '?', 
['inspect.stack()[0]'], 0)

I'm afraid it's definitely a feature.  (sigh)

Assigned to Tim for review, since he knows inspect.py
inside-out. :-)

It's probably too late for 2.2, unless you can prove this is
a bugfix and not a feature.
