  * Move utils.* to misc.*

* Fixes for python-2.3
* versioning subpackage with version_tuple_to_string() function that creates
  PEP-386 compatible version strings.
* Changed pycompat24.builtinset -- now you need to call the add_builtin_set()
  function to add set and frozenset to the __builtin__ namespace.
* pycompat24.base64modern module that implements the modern interface to
  encode and decode base64.  Note that it does't implement b32 or b16 at the
  moment.
* pycompat27 with the 2.7 version of subprocess.
* The 2.7 version of subprocess is also available at
  kitchen.pycompat24.subprocess since subprocess first appeared in python2.4
