gpython: Add way to run it with threads runtime
Until now gpython was always activating gevent on startup + adding goodness such as "always UTF-8 default encoding"; go, chan, b/u and friends available from builtin namespace, etc... While those goodness are sometimes useful on their own, it is not always appropriate to force a project to switch from threads to gevent. For this reason add a flag to select which runtime - either gevent or threads - gpython should use. gpython -Xgpython.runtime=gevent selects gevent, while gpython -Xgpython.runtime=threads selects threads. Gevent remains the default. It is also possible to specify desired runtime via $GPYTHON_RUNTIME environment variable. /reviewed-on nexedi/pygolang!5
