a patch for improving pydoc's inner working.
instead of doc() doing both the text rendering
and sending it to the pager, introduce a new
function, render_doc(), that renders the text.

doc() now calls render_doc() and sends the text
to the pager.

this allows external programs to generate a 
"text only" version of the documentation, without
having to read it from stdout.
