Summary: addition of cmath.arg function

Initial Comment:
This patch adds the familiar "Arg" function from
complex analysis to the cmath module, though it's
called "arg" here for consistency with the other names.
Along with the built-in abs function this makes
polar/rectangular coordinate conversions trivial:

  z = complex(x,y)
  r, theta = abs(z), arg(z)
  
  z = r * exp(1j * theta)
  x, y = z.real, z.imag

I forgot to mention this patch is relative to version 2.2.1.
