Summary: binary and new-style octal literals

Initial Comment:
Incomplete patch that adds '0t777' and '0b101010' style literals. It lacks a NEWS item, documentation and compiler-package changes (although it may not need any.) 2to3 recipe also not included.

The compiler package does indeed not need any changes, as it still uses
Python's own tokenizer. And in case there's any doubt, I'm still -1 on this
change :) (But unfortunately the easy implementation of it didn't exactly
give me new ammo.)
