Patch to implement the PEP 416.

frozendict_builtins.patch: make CPython supports frozendict for the __builtins__ mapping. It is an example of frozendict usage which helps my pysandbox project.

Another frozendict usage example: freeze the dict of a new type if it contains __final__ in its namespace.

Example:

>>> class Classic:
...     pass
... 
>>> Classic.attr=1
>>> class FinalizedType:
...     __final__=True
... 
>>> FinalizedType.attr=1
(...)
TypeError: 'frozendict' object does not support item assignment

This patch is not part of the PEP 416 and is just a proof-of-concept.

The PEP has been rejected. See issue #14386 for a new mappingview type.
