htmllib cannot be removed from 3.0 until its use is removed from pydoc.

This issue is at least partially dependent on issue #1883 (adapting pydoc 
to new doc system), in that it's a little awkward to test pydoc before 
#1883 is complete.

I'd be happy to see both htmllib and pydoc be removed; documentation
tools do quite well as separate applications.  Not as convenient for
interactive use, but easy enough to hook in via PYTHONSTARTUP.

I have no objections, but would python-3000 go for this?
