[issue18335] Add textwrap.dedent, .indent, as str methods.

[Terry J. Reedy]

New submission from Terry J. Reedy:

To end proposals for new syntax to do what they do for triple-quoted strings. Nick Coghlan gave reasons as follows: run time cost small, can be optimized away, would be used more than some other string methods.

In response, Guido said "That's a compelling argument. Let's do it."
