Currently python raises an exception if one tries to copy or deepcopy
Ellpisis.  The former is usually no problem but if an ellipsis ends up
on an object and becomes deepcopied this is pretty annoying.

The patch provided adds Ellipsis to the copy.py registry with the same
treatment None and other immutable types get.
