Surprising fix for SF bug 563060: module can be used as base class. Change the module constructor (module_init) to have the signature __init__(name:str, doc=None); this prevents the call from type_new() to succeed. While we're at it, prevent repeated calling of module_init for the same module from leaking the dict, changing the semantics so that __dict__ is only initialized if NULL. Also adding a unittest, test_module.py. This is an incompatibility with 2.2, if anybody was instantiating the module class before, their argument list was probably empty; so this can't be backported to 2.2.x.
