Summary: file.encoding support for file.write and file.writelines

Initial Comment:
Here is a patch that allows Unicode strings written to
a file being automatically encoded. It enables Python
code to set file.encoding and obeys this encoding when
writing Unicode strings with write() or writelines().

It is my first core hackery, so forgive me one leaked
ref or the other. I hope I got the error handling
right; it is kind of confusing...

(btw: Bug #967986 will be fixed with this)

Third revision; adds new documentation and allows Python
code to set the encoding to Py_None.

The idea looks good to me.
I attached a revised patch fixed code style, C99-style local
variable declaration and added a regrtest.
I think some documentation update will be needed also.
