    mock.patch.dict.__enter__ should return the patched dict/mapping object.

    Currently it returns nothing (None).

    This would make setting up fixtures more convenient:

     with mock.patch.dict(some.thing):
       some.thing['foo'] = 'bar'
    
     with mock.patch.dict(some.thing) as x:
       x['foo'] = 'bar'

    This seems like a reasonable feature request.
