New submission from Alun Champion:
Currently if you append or appendleft when len(deque) == maxlen item from the
other end of the deque is discarded. These should return the discarded value to
allow you to write:
x = deque.append(y)
vs
if len(deque) == deque.maxlen():
x = deque.pop()
deque.append(y)
It should return None if len(deque) < maxlen or maxlen is not set.
