Summary: New C module for quopri assist

Initial Comment:
This patch adds a new module, quoted, and code in
quopri to use this module if it exists.  This module
implements quoted printable encoding and decoding based
on strings in C.  This was required by a recent project
of mine because 1MB quoted printable mail attachments
(sometimes chosen to send PDF and PS data) would take
40+ minutes to encode and decode using the standard
quopri python module.

Ok, this new patch adds the code to binascii, b2a_qp and
a2b_qp.

It would make more sense to add this as another pair of
encodings to the binascii module, which provides similar
support for binhex, base64, and uuencode.
