Summary: No __mod__ on str subclass

Initial Comment:
PyNumber_Remainder does not use __mod__ on str and unicode
subclasses.  I guess the fix would be to check for
nb_remainder first
and then fallback to PyString_Format or PyUnicode_Format.

The attached  patch adds __mod__ to the 'str' and 'unicode'
types.  The side effect of this is that PyNumber_Check returns
true for these types.  This is not a huge loss since
PyNumber_Check is already pretty useless.  selectmodule.c
was affected by this and was fixed by improving the error
message returned by PyFloat_AsDouble (matching what
PyInt_AsLong does) and using it to convert the timeout
argument to a float.
