#14169: Let %attach behave like the old attach, and provide a doctest for
%attach

Currently (sage-5.8.beta0), when using `attach /path/to/file.pyx`, one
gets a deprecation warning and is told to use `%attach` instead of
`attach`.
Problem: If one changes the file that is attached with `%attach` then no
automatic re-compilation happens. But that would be the main point of
attaching a file! And the automatic re-compilation used to be a feature of
`attach`. Hence, changing from `attach` to `%attach` is a regression.
Moreover, it seems that `%attach` is not doc-tested.
Not clear if "user interface" is the right component, but `attach` is used
in interactive sessions, after all...
