[issue6396] No conversion specifier in the string, no __getitem__ method in the right hand value

[Mahmoud]

New submission from Mahmoud <saghaei at med.mui.ac.ir>:

When using a class instance as a mapping for the right hand value in a
sting format expression without conversion specifier, it seems logical
that the class has a __getitem__ method. Therefore following format
expression should raise an exception.

>>> class AClass(object):
...   pass
... 
>>> c = AClass()
>>> "a string with no conversion specifier" % c
'a string with no conversion specifier'
