[issue37995] Multiline ast.dump()

FWIW, I wrote a generic AST pretty printer for a personal compiler project (see attached file).  Perhaps it can be adapted to the Python AST.

## Example input ###############################

Program(procs=[Procedure(name='FACTORIAL', params=['N'], is_test=False, body=Block(blocknum=0, stmts=[Assign(name=Output(is_bool=False), value=Number(x=1)), Assign(name=Cell(i=0), value=Number(x=1)), Loop(times=Id(name='N'), fixed=False, body=Block(blocknum=1, stmts=[Assign(name=Output(is_bool=False), value=BinOp(value1=Output(is_bool=False), op='x', value2=Cell(i=0))), Assign(name=Cell(i=0), value=BinOp(value1=Cell(i=0), op='+', value2=Number(x=1)))]))]))], calls=[])

## Example output ###############################

Program(
   procs = [
      Procedure(
         name = 'FACTORIAL',
         params = [
            'N'
         ],
         is_test = False,
         body = Block(
            blocknum = 0,
            stmts = [
               Assign(
                  name = Output(is_bool=False),
                  value = Number(x=1)
               ),
               Assign(

                     ]
                  )
               )
            ]
         )

   ],
   calls = []
