Summary: Support --disable-unicode

Initial Comment:
This patch implements the option --disable-unicode.
In particular, it:
- does not compile unicodeobject, unicodectype, 
_codecsmodule, and unicodedata if Unicode is disabled
- checks for Py_Unicode in all places that use 
Unicode functions
- disables unicode literals, the builtin functions, 
and the string encode and decode methods,
- avoids Unicode literals in a few places in the 
libraries
- adds the types.StringTypes list

Most of the test suite passes with these changes. A 
number of tests fail, mostly because they use Unicode 
literals.
