Summary: BoundedSemaphore class

Initial Comment:
Per Guido's request, here's a simple BoundedSemaphore
class, including doc update (and simple example)
as well as a rudimentary test_threading.py which
draws heavily from test_thread.py.

Assigned to Tim, since he's probably the most likely
person to check the BoundedSemaphore code.

Back to Skip.

+ Think of a way to do this without using "assert":  
BoundedSempahore doesn't do its job under -O as-is, because 
asserts vanish, and UnreliableBoundedSemaphore would be an 
unwieldy class name <wink>.

+ Consider renaming __initial_value to _initial_value; 
there's no reason to hide this from subclasses, right?
