This is a patch for the feature requets #1451588

The patch is from the current trunk, r43488.

The patch provides the bisect module (both the python
and C implementation) with an option for a custom
comparison function.

If not custom comparison function is provided the
standard cmp() built-in function it used.

Please review, any comments welcome.

Jonathan Joseph kindly pointed out some redundant if
statements to me.

I've updated the patch with a newer version.

Thank you for the patch but must close due the rejection of the 
original RFE.
