[issue2527] Pass a namespace to timeit

[Alexander Belopolsky]

Alexander Belopolsky <belopolsky at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

On the second thought, I actually wanted Timer to mimic eval without
realizing that eval uses positional rather than keywords arguments. 
'locals' is obviously a bad choice for the keyword parameter because it
masks locals() builtin.  Maybe 'local_namespace'?
