[Python-ideas] a new namedtuple

[Ivan Levkivskyi]

Just FYI, typing.NamedTuple is there for almost a year and already supports
default values, methods, docstrings etc.
Also there is ongoing work towards dataclasses PEP, see
https://github.com/ericvsmith/dataclasses

So that would keep namedtuple API as it is, and focus only on performance
improvements.
