Tom Tromey c4a3dbaf11 Expose current 'print' settings to Python
PR python/17291 asks for access to the current print options.  While I
think this need is largely satisfied by the existence of
Value.format_string, it seemed to me that a bit more could be done.

First, while Value.format_string uses the user's settings, it does not
react to temporary settings such as "print/x".  This patch changes
this.

Second, there is no good way to examine the current settings (in
particular the temporary ones in effect for just a single "print").
This patch adds this as well.
