Summary: add iterator IF to StringIO/cStringIO

Initial Comment:
The following patch adds support for the iterator
interface in both StringIO and cStringIO.  Like file
objects, iter(aStringIO) or iter(a_cStringIO) gives an
iterator object whose .next() method traverses by
calling readline() on the underlying object, raising
StopIteration when an empty string is reached.

Checking in the code & test case.  I think the documentation
can refer to the fact that StringIO's are file-like, so when
file objects document that they can be iterated over, so
will StringIO's. <wink back atcha>

The code looks fine, but you need doc changes and some new 
test cases (in test_StringIO.py) too.  But you knew that, 
so I won't insult you by mentioning it <wink>.
