[Python-Dev] Adding types.build_class for 3.3

[Nick Coghlan]

For those suggesting the operator module is actually a good choice, there's
no way to add this function without making major changes to the module
description (go read it - I only realised the problem when I went to add
the docs). It's a bad fit (*much* worse than types or a class method)
