This is a patch to implement a product() builtin function. It works
behaves similarly to reduce(operator.mul,...) but is implemented in C.

Tests and documentation are included in this patch.

-1. I doubt this is needed often enough to justify a builtin function.

Thanks, but no thanks; I was quickly dissuaded from the need for this.
