[issue35707] time.sleep() should support objects with __float__

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan at gmail.com> added the comment:

Deriving __int__ from __float__ wouldn't be the right answer, as that can easily lead to unwanted OverflowError exceptions and other issues.

However, Jeroen's suggested order of checking __index__ then __float__ then __int__ in _PyTime_FromObject makes sense to me, as that addresses Victor's desire to use the most precise conversion available.
