These two patches enhance the fileinput module.

The fileno patch adds a "fileno()" method that returns
the current file number.

The openhook patch adds a possibility to specify an
opening hook, that is, instead of calling open(), the
hook is called. This is useful, for example, for
transparently decompressing gzip files, as wished in
RFE bpo-563141.

Docs and tests will be added if this is welcomed.

I don't see any attached openhook patch.

The fileno patch looks fine, but personally I would indeed
welcome docs and tests :-)
