Add support for the iterator and mapping protocols.
For Py2.3, this was done for shelve, dumbdbm and other mapping objects, but
not for bsddb and dbhash which were inadvertently missed.

  -------
  
+ - The bsddb module and dbhash module now support the iterator and
+   mapping protocols which make them more substitutable for dictionaries
+   and shelves.
+ 
  - The csv module's DictReader and DictWriter classes now accept keyword
    arguments.  This was an omission in the initial implementation.
