Summary: add platform.py

Initial Comment:
Here's a request to add Marc-Andre Lemburg's
platform.py to the Python standard library.

It provides more complete platform information
than either sys.platform or
distutils.util.get_platform()

For more info, see:

I'm assigning this to Guido, so it can be looked
at before 2.3b1 is released.

This issue seems like a no brainer to me, yet it has
been open for almost 3 years now.  I'd really
like to be able to use platform.py in Python 2.3.

How about adding platform.py to the 
distribution even if there is no docs 
forthcoming?  It's not like this would be 
the first undocumented module.

Is there any hope of getting documentation?

Guido has already approved the addition; so it's basically
just the docs that are currently missing...
