Summary: Make timeit.Timer more useful inside scripts.

Initial Comment:
The patch makes it possible to pass in an execution 
environment.  This makes it easier to instrument 
existing programs with timeit.

With the patch, the following script is possible:

import timeit

def f(x):
   return 3 * x + 1

print timeit.Timer('f(10)', env=globals()).repeat()

Sigh. Skip just proposed the same thing and I already
rejected it. You can use the setup argument for that.
