[Python-Dev] Folding test_operations in to test_dict

Jerry Seutter posted patch #1678088 yesterday, which converts
test_operations over to use unittest and folds the resulting code into
test_dict. It struck me as a good idea, because a) it gets away from
output/-based tests, and b) test_operations tests certain dictionary
operations, something that would seem at home in test_dict.

Before I commit this, though, I want to ask: is there a reason
test_operations is separate? I notice that it's listed in regrtest.py
in the "run these tests before everything else" list, which made me
think test_operations is on its own for a reason.
