[issue35606] Add prod() function to the math module

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

I agree with Mark that correctness, rather than performance, should be the main attraction of a stdlib implementation.

By the way "prod" is slightly obscure (though it's Numpy's chosen spelling), how about "product"?  After all, we went with the full "factorial".
