[issue10572] Move unittest test package to Lib/test

[Barry A. Warsaw]

Barry A. Warsaw <barry at python.org> added the comment:

grepping the code without the tests doesn't seem that compelling a use case to me, given that grep and find both provide options to prune directories.  I do think that moving the tests out of the email package will make it harder to maintain and distribute as a separate package.  However, if RDM thinks the burden won't be too high, and the advantages of a split outweigh the disadvantages, then I defer to him.  I would still make a case for distributing email6 as a package available on Cheeseshop though, otherwise it just won't get much independent use until it's in the stdlib.
