Kodi Arfer 80771ac99c Remove documentation of `print` in api.rst
There is no longer any such special form. We just use Python 3's built-in function.

Kodi Arfer 6c93fc6ff1 Overhaul introductory documentation
- Removed links to non-updated code and badges.
- Compressed `quickstart.rst` into a few sentences at the very start of the docs.
- Added a "Why Hy?" chapter discussing Hy's features and comparing Hy to Python and other Lisps.
- Rewrote the tutorial to be more accessible to non-Python programmers and to be greater in breadth but lesser in depth.
- Cut down on the self-congratulatory manic tone and exclamation points, while keeping the jokes I liked best.

Brandon T. Willard e468d5f081 Refactor REPL error handling and filter Hy internal trace output
These changes make the Hy REPL more closely follow `code.InteractiveConsole`'s
class interface and provide minimally intrusive traceback print-out filtering
via a context manager that temporarily alters `sys.excepthook`.  In other words,
exception messages from the REPL will no longer show Hy internal
code (e.g. importer, compiler and parsing functions).

The boolean variable `hy.errors._hy_filter_internal_errors` dynamically
enables/disables trace filtering, and the env variable
`HY_FILTER_INTERNAL_ERRORS` can be used as the initial value.

Brandon T. Willard 87a5b117a1 Implement new importer using PEP-302 semantics
Python 3.x is patched in a way that integrates `.hy` source files into
Pythons default `importlib` machinery.  In Python 2.7, a PEP-302 "importer"
and "loader" is implemented according to the standard `import` logic (via
`pkgutil` and later pure-Python `imp` package code).

In both cases, the entry-point for the loaders is through `sys.path_hooks` only.
As well, the import semantics have been updated all throughout to utilize
`importlib` and follow aspects of PEP-420.  This, along with some light
patches, should allow for basic use of `runpy`, `py_compile` and `reload`.

In all cases, if a `.hy` file is shadowed by a `.py`, Hy will silently use
`.hy`.
