__unittest needs to die (with appropriate deprecation).

I agree that a nicer API for marking functions and methods as needing to be 
excluded from unittest stacktraces would be useful. A decorator is a good way 
to expose that API to developers. Internally unittest could use the new API and 
__unittest can go away.

Introspecting stack frames is a bad way to implement this, as it doesn't play 
well with other implementations (like IronPython which doesn't have 
introspectable Python stack frames by default).
