Summary: improve pydoc handling of extension types

Initial Comment:
pydoc.HTMLRepr.repr1() generates an exception if you
pass in an object x where type(x) has no __name__
attribute.  The attached patch adds a test for this
case and keeps repr1 from barfing.

This is useful on Windows if you're using cgitb.py to
try to get tracebacks that involve COM objects --
somewhere in the guts of the COM support code you get a
type that has no __name__ attribute.
