[issue4907] ast.literal_eval does not properly handled complex numbers

[Raymond Hettinger]

Raymond Hettinger <rhettinger at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Fixed handling on unary minus in r85314.  In so doing, it also liberalized what literal_eval() accepts (3j+4 for example). This simplified the implementation and removed an unnecessary restriction which wasn't needed for "safety".
