[issue19896] Exposing "q" and "Q" to multiprocessing.sharedctypes

[Antony Lee]

New submission from Antony Lee:

multiprocessing.sharedctypes was not updated after the "q" (c_longlong) and "Q" (c_ulonglong) typecodes were added to the array module (the docs claim that the typecode can be "one character typecode of the kind used by the array module").  The attached patch (just adding an entry to the typecode-to-type dict, as well as some more tests) fixes the issue.
