[issue29016] negative numbers raised to power zero should be 1, not -1

[Tim Peters]

New submission from Tim Peters:

They already are.

>>> (-2)**0
1

You're probably doing this instead:

>>> -2**0
-1

Exponentiation has higher precedence than unary minus, so that last example groups as -(2**0), and -1 is correct.
