[issue2819] Full precision summation

[Terry J. Reedy]

Comment: as a user (on x86) I agree with Tim.  I could almost see the
new version as a bugfix.

Question: I see "math module patch committed, r63542" in May 22.  But in
3.0b2, there is no math.fsum and math.sum seems to be a wrapper for
builtin sum.  Has this not been forward ported (merged) yet?
>>> math.sum
<built-in function sum>
>>> sum
<built-in function sum>
>>> math.sum is sum
False
