[issue4907] ast.literal_eval does not properly handled complex numbers

[Terry J. Reedy]

Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu> added the comment:

I assume from the discussion that the patch was accepted/committed and
changed the resolution and stage field to match.

FWIW, list displays, for instance, are not literals either but are
successfully evaluated, so doing same for complex 'displays' seems
sensible to me too, and in line with the purpose of the method.
