This is the implementation of PEP 487.

It adds a metaclass to types that calls a method on a class
once it is subclassed. This way one can customize the creation
of classes without the need to write an own metaclass.

As a second functionality, it calls a method on each descriptor
in a class, such that descriptors know their name.
