[issue5463] Remove deprecated features from struct module

I think you're right about issue 4228:  we should go ahead and
clean up the struct module anyway.  As far as I can tell, only
the Python 2.5 zipfile module is using the deprecated behaviour.

The _struct.c portion of your patch looks fine.  I think there's
still some work to do on the test_struct file:  for example,
removing references to PY_STRUCT_OVERFLOW_MASKING.

I'd also like to remove the deprecated float handling, but it's
probably better to do that in a separate patch once this patch is in.

Changing title to better reflect the current patch.
