This is a proposed traceback module enhancement deriving from the "python -m" traceback verbosity discussion in issue 16217. Specifically, I'm thinking a good way of cleaning up those tracebacks would be to use `TracebackException.format()` to get the formatted exception output, but designate particular modules to be skipped during the iteration (specifically `runpy`, `_frozen_importlib`, `importlib`). I'm filing this as a separate issue so the discussion of the public API for the capability in the traceback module can be separated from the discussion of applying that API in runpy.

Specifically, I'm thinking a good way of cleaning up those tracebacks would be to use `TracebackException.format()` to get the formatted exception output, but designate particular modules to be *skipped* during the iteration (specifically `runpy`, `_frozen_importlib`, `importlib`).
