Summary: add dictionary "tokens" to token.py

Initial Comment:
I would like for token.py to provide a dictionary, 
called "tokens" that maps the name of each token to 
its value, e.g.:

   token.tokens[token.INDENT] is 'INDENT'

This would be useful for debugging programs that use 
tokenize.

A user currently could create a dictionary like this 
using introspection on token.py (assuming tokens are 
in all caps) but that's a lot of trouble.  Instead, I 
believe it would be better to solve the problem once-
and-for-all by building the extra logic required to 
create the dictionary into token.main.

thanks much,
