Summary: Remove cStringIO usage
Initial Comment:
The patch removes the import of cStringIO from all Python files and disabled the cStringIO module. It leaves the file around.
Open problems:
* How should io.StringIO handle buffer objects?

I'll take this. Thanks for the work! There are a few tests that break
due to this, I'll look into these. I'll probably kill StringIO and
cStringIO hard rather than adding deprecations (there's already a 2to3
fixer that fixes most StringIO references).

The new patch also removes StringIO and adds a facade cStringIO. Importing
StringIO and cStringIO is deprecated and the imports fall back to
io.StringIO.
File Added: remove_stringio.patch

I guess that if you want to handle buffer objects, you should be using
io.BytesIO.
