[issue9147] dis.show_code() variant that accepts source strings (and returns rather than prints)

[Nick Coghlan]

New submission from Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan at gmail.com>:

Add a new API in the dis module that:

1. Works like show_code() but returns a string rather than printing to stdout
2. Accepts source strings directly, similar to the dis.dis() changes for 3.2

Tentative name: get_code_info()

Inspired by Yanov Aknin's ssc() utility and the issue 6507 updates to dis.dis()
