[issue4258] Use 30-bit digits instead of 15-bit digits for Python integers.

[Mark Dickinson]

Mark Dickinson <dickinsm at gmail.com> added the comment:

Committed 30bit_longdigit20.patch to py3k in r70460, with some minor 
variations (incorporate Nick Coghlan's improved error messages
for marshal, fix some comment typos, add whatsnew and Misc/NEWS entries). 

Thanks all for your feedback.

I might get around to backporting this to 2.7 one day...
