[New-bugs-announce] [issue21670] Add repr to shelve.Shelf

[Claudiu.Popa]

New submission from Claudiu.Popa:

Hello!

Working with Shelf instances in the interactive console is cumbersome because you can't have an instant feedback when running the following:

>>> from shelve import Shelf
>>> s = Shelf({})
>>> s['a'] = 1
>>> s
<shelve.Shelf object at 0x033D0AF0>

This patch adds an useful repr to Shelf objects.

>>> s
Shelf({'a': 1})

Thanks!
