Without this change, mypy can't infer proper types for cases like
`d.get(k, [])` where it needs type context to infer the type of
`[]`. We add the value type to the second argument to `get` using
union types, and this provides the context. This doesn't affect
the effective signature of `get`, other than providing the type
context for mypy.
Also removed some related redundant method definitions where we can
just inherit the base class definition. This makes it easier to
keep the method signatures consistent.
Note that this requires a few mypy PRs before mypy will be able to
use this effectively:
* https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/2718
* https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/2715
This type is something core to Python and is useful when typing web applications,
but doesn't actually exist in the stdlib anywhere. I put this in wsgiref, but I am
open to suggestions as for a better place.

**test_next.py**:
```python
z = (x*2 for x in range(10))
reveal_type(next(z, None))
```
Before:
```shell
test_next.py:2: error: Revealed type is 'builtins.int*'
```
After:
```shell
test_next.py:2: error: Revealed type is 'Union[builtins.int*, builtins.None]'
```
The python2 unittest `assertIsInstance` and `assertNotIsInstance` stub
did not allow using a tuple of classes, but that behavior is [in the
documentation][1]. This commit copies the type stub for the isinstance
built-in to the stubs for `assertIsInstance` and `assertNotIsInstance`
I made this commit in response to @gvanrossum's request in
python/typeshed#802 (which fixed this issue for python 3) that I apply
the same fix to python 2.

This chage more closely matches the behavior of `get` at runtime. Users can pass whatever they want in to the default
parameter and it will be returned if the key is absent. Additionally, `get` should return an `Optional` if called with
only one parameter.
```python
z = {'a': 22}
reveal_type(z.get('b'))
reveal_type(z.get('b', 22))
reveal_type(z.get('b', 'hello'))
```
Before:
```shell
test_get_default.py:2: error: Revealed type is 'builtins.int*'
test_get_default.py:3: error: Revealed type is 'builtins.int*'
test_get_default.py:4: error: Revealed type is 'builtins.int*'
test_get_default.py:4: error: Argument 2 to "get" of "dict" has incompatible type "str"; expected "int"
```
After:
```shell
test_get_default.py:2: error: Revealed type is 'Union[builtins.int*, builtins.None]'
test_get_default.py:3: error: Revealed type is 'builtins.int'
test_get_default.py:4: error: Revealed type is 'Union[builtins.int, builtins.str*]'
```
* Define __slots__ for object as Iterable[str] / Iterable[Union[str, unicode]]
* A string as __slots__ value is also valid and represents a single item
* Add `None` to type union for `subprocess.Popen.communicate` stub's `input` parameter.
* subprocess.communicate `input` annotated as `Optional[AnyStr]` for both 2.7 and 3.x; `timeout` as `Optional[float]`.
- Cursor is an Iterator of Any now, and .__iter__(..) and .__next__(..)
have been changed / made explicit to reflect this.
- .fetchall(..)/.fetchmany(..)/.fetchone(..) return (lists of) Anys
instead of tuples.
As per discussion in PR #663, the output of fetching values from the
cursor can be customized with a custom assignment to
.row_factory. Therefore the correct return type for fetching is Any and
not tuple.
