For the type system, we want a slightly relaxed rule for constant
naming, so we update the pylint rule. But the old _TPInt and _TNEString
were not clear enough, so we expand them.

While we'll need to update the source files too, at least this change
makes pylint 0.21 not fail on the current source tree.

There seems to be a bug in pylint relating to W0201 (“Attribute '%r'
defined outside __init__”) being re-enabled by simple comments and not
being able to be disabled again.

Until that is fixed, we disable this warning.

R0922, “Abstract class is only referenced 1 times”, cannot be disabled
in the source code, and thus
lib/http/auth.py:HttpServerRequestAuthentication gives this warning
(it's actually also referenced from the tests, but we do not include
them).

Therefore we need to disable it at pylintrc level.

This is a very slow checker, estimated to be O(n²) by its author; so
using it all the time is not good. It can be re-enabled on the command
line via “--disable-checker=”.

We don't get any useful out of this - a git grep is as effective, and
these only pollute the pylint output.

Since the current pylintrc is in now way good for our style, we update
it:

- remove docstring checks, since we have too many cases where a
  docstring doesn't make sense
- relax naming rules to cover more alternatives (but not break the
  naming rules)
- increase many of the limits
