Tell me if I am wrong, but only Marc-Andre is against deprecating StreamReader 
and StreamWriter. Walter and Antoine are in favor of using TextIOWrapper 
instead of StreamReader/StreamWriter.

Different people would like to be able to call codecs.open() in Python 2 and 3, 
so I kept the function with its API unchanged, and I documented that open() 
should be preferred (but I did not deprecated codecs.open).
