Summary: Code modernization for calendar.py

Initial Comment:
Eliminated the indexer() logic from the i18n code in 
calendar.py.  The code is no longer necessary 
because Py2.3 lists support slice objects directly.

If approved, please re-assign to GvR.  Pending the 
introduction of a datetime module, he wants to avoid 
maintenance to calendar.  OTOH, he has been 
supportive of eliminating references to the types 
module and of modernizing code to take advantage of 
Py2.3 language features.

This is OK, but I wonder, why bother? Why does the calendar
module attract so much attention while many other modules
could use it better? :-)
