* hy/core/language.hy: Adding a simple `identity` function that returns
the argument supplied to it
* docs/language/core.rst: Updated docs with identity function
For the --spy commmand line option, it currently says '''Print equivalent Hy code...'''. Now, I haven't actually gotten around to installing Hy on my computer yet, so I haven't had a chance to test this out to make sure, but from the looks of the code example, it looks as though it is printing out the equivalent Python code of the executed Hy code, not the other way around. This would certainly make more sense. As such, I have changed the word 'Hy' to 'Python' so that the documentation more accurately reflects what (one assumes) is going on.
Sometimes it is better to start with the false condition, sometimes that
makes the code clearer. For that, the (if-not) macro, which simply
reverses the order of the condition blocks, can be of great use.

In the same vein as defmacro-alias, this implements defn-alias /
defun-alias, which does essentially the same thing as defmacro-alias,
but for functions.

With this patch, every identifier is split up along dots, each part gets
separately mangled, and then it is all joined back together. This allows
for fun stuff like (.foo? (Foo)), and even more contrived examples.

As a refactoring step, move the identifier mangling done in t_identifier
into a separate def.

The hy2py tool has been very useful for me, but most of the time, it's
only a part of its output that one is interested in. The whole output,
with source code, AST and python code together is one big monstrosity.
So instead of printing all that, lets have a few handy command-line
options to control which part gets printed.
By default, only the generated python source is, as that's what the name
of the tool implies.
Also, don't run it. That's what hy is for.
