Several simple extensions that add some nifty features to Python.

Some features:

- Function overloading
- Switch statement
- Runtime module creation
- Tail recursion removal
- Python 2 function annotations
- Python 2 safe tuple unpacking

Examples:

Function overloading::

@overload.argc(1)
def f(a): print 'Function 1 called'
@overload.argc(2)
def f(a, b): print 'Function 2 called'

f(1)
f(1, 2)

Switch statement::

with switch(1) as case:
if case(0): print 'Awkward...'
if case(2): print '???'
if case(1): print 'Phew! It works!'

Function annotations::

@annotate(a=1, b=2, ret='return annotation')
def x(a, b):
return 0

.. note:: Please ignore this project's messy commit history(several commits under invalid_email_address, about 20 commits labeled Initial). I was trying to use hg-git and kept goofing stuff up.
