[issue9296] json module skipkeys handling changed exception types in 2.7

[Doug Hellmann]

New submission from Doug Hellmann <doug.hellmann at gmail.com>:

Under Python 2.6 the json encoder raised a TypeError when it encountered dictionary keys that were not strings.  Under 2.7, that exception has changed to a ValueError, but the documentation still says it raises TypeError.  I'm not sure which is right, but TypeError seems like the correct exception.
