Defines the BaseTraitHandler class and a standard set of BaseTraitHandler

A trait handler mediates the assignment of values to object traits. It
verifies (via its validate() method) that a specified value is consistent

        This class enables you to define new traits using a class-based
        approach, instead of by calling the Trait() factory function with an
        instance of a TraitHandler derived object.

        When subclassing this class, you can implement one or more of the
        method signatures below. Note that these methods are defined only as
        comments, because the absence of method definitions in the subclass
        definition implicitly provides information about how the trait should
        operate.

        The optional methods are as follows:

        * **get ( self, object, name ):**

          This is the getter method of a trait that behaves like a property.

          :Parameters:
            **object** (*object*) -- The object that the property applies to.

            **name** (str) -- The name of the property on *object* property.

          *Description*

          If neither this method nor the set() method is defined, the value
          of the trait is handled like a normal object attribute. If this
          method is not defined, but the set() method is defined, the trait
          behaves like a write-only property. This method should return the
          value of the *name* property for the *object* object.

        * **set ( self, object, name, value )**

          This is the setter method of a trait that behaves like a property.

          :Parameters:
            **object** (*object*) -- The object that the property applies to.

            **name** (str) -- The name of the property on *object*.

            **value** -- The value being assigned as the value of the property.

          *Description*

          If neither this method nor the get() method is implemented, the
          trait behaves like a normal trait attribute. If this method is not
          defined, but the get() method is defined, the trait behaves like a
          read-only property. This method does not need to return a value,
          but it should raise a TraitError exception if the specified *value*
          is not valid and cannot be coerced or adapted to a valid value.

        * **validate ( self, object, name, value )**

          This method validates, coerces, or adapts the specified *value* as
          the value of the *name* trait of the *object* object. This method
          is called when a value is assigned to an object trait that is
          based on this subclass of *TraitType* and the class does not
          contain a definition for either the get() or set() methods. This
          method must return the original *value* or any suitably coerced or
          adapted value that is a legal value for the trait. If *value* is
          not a legal value for the trait, and cannot be coerced or adapted
          to a legal value, the method should either raise a **TraitError** or
          call the **error** method to raise the **TraitError** on its behalf.

        * **is_valid_for ( self, value )**

          As an alternative to implementing the **validate** method, you can
          instead implement the **is_valid_for** method, which receives only
          the *value* being assigned. It should return **True** if the value is
          valid, and **False** otherwise.

        * **value_for ( self, value )**

          As another alternative to implementing the **validate** method, you
          can instead implement the **value_for** method, which receives only
          the *value* being assigned. It should return the validated form of
          *value* if it is valid, or raise a **TraitError** if the value is not
          valid.

        * **post_setattr ( self, object, name, value )**

          This method allows the trait to do additional processing after
          *value* has been successfully assigned to the *name* trait of the
          *object* object. For most traits there is no additional processing
          that needs to be done, and this method need not be defined. It is
          normally used for creating "shadow" (i.e., "mapped" traits), but
          other uses may arise as well. This method does not need to return
          a value, and should normally not raise any exceptions.

    This class is an alternative to trait validator functions. A trait handler
    has several advantages over a trait validator function, due to being an
    object:

        * Trait handlers have constructors and state. Therefore, you can use

        * Trait handlers can have multiple methods, whereas validator functions
          can have only one callable interface. This feature allows more

    TraitCoerceType is the underlying handler for the predefined traits and
    factories for Python simple types. The TraitCoerceType class is also an
    example of a parametrized type, because the single TraitCoerceType class
    allows creating instances that check for totally different sets of values.
    For example::

        class Person(HasTraits):
            name = Trait('', TraitCoerceType(''))
            weight = Trait(0.0, TraitCoerceType(float))

    In this example, the **name** attribute must be of type ``str`` (string),
    while the **weight** attribute must be of type ``float``, although both are
    based on instances of the TraitCoerceType class. Note that this example is
    essentially the same as writing::

        class Person(HasTraits):
            name = Trait('')
            weight = Trait(0.0)

    This simpler form is automatically changed by the Trait() function into
    the first form, based on TraitCoerceType instances, when the trait
    attributes are defined.

    For attributes based on TraitCoerceType instances, if a value that is
    assigned is not of the type defined for the trait, a TraitError exception
    is raised. However, in certain cases, if the value can be coerced to the
    required type, then the coerced value is assigned to the attribute. Only
    *widening* coercions are allowed, to avoid any possible loss of precision.
    The following table lists the allowed coercions.

class TraitCastType ( TraitCoerceType ):
    """Ensures that a value assigned to a trait attribute is of a specified
    Python type, or can be cast to the specified type.

    This class is similar to TraitCoerceType, but uses casting rather than
    coercion. Values are cast by calling the type with the value to be assigned
    as an argument. When casting is performed, the result of the cast is the
    value assigned to the trait attribute.

    Any trait that uses a TraitCastType instance in its definition ensures that
    its value is of the type associated with the TraitCastType instance. For
    example::

        class Person(HasTraits):
            name = Trait('', TraitCastType(''))
            weight = Trait(0.0, TraitCastType(float))

    In this example, the **name** trait must be of type ``str`` (string), while
    the **weight** trait must be of type ``float``. Note that this example is
    essentially the same as writing::

        class Person(HasTraits):
            name = CStr
            weight = CFloat

    To understand the difference between TraitCoerceType and TraitCastType (and
    also between Float and CFloat), consider the following example::

        >>>class Person(HasTraits):
        ...    weight = Float
        ...    cweight = CFloat
        >>>
        >>>bill = Person()
        >>>bill.weight = 180    # OK, coerced to 180.0
        >>>bill.cweight = 180   # OK, cast to 180.0

                color = Trait('white', TraitEnum(['white', 'yellow', 'red']))
                kind  = Trait('annual', TraitEnum('annual', 'perennial'))

        This example defines a Flower class, which has a **color** trait
        attribute, which can have as its value, one of the three strings,
        'white', 'yellow', or 'red', and a **kind** trait attribute, which can
        have as its value, either of the strings 'annual' or 'perennial'. This
        is equivalent to the following class definition::

            class Flower(HasTraits):
                color = Trait(['white', 'yellow', 'red'])
                kind  = Trait('annual', 'perennial')

        The Trait() function automatically maps traits of the form shown in
        this example to the form shown in the preceding example whenever it
        encounters them in a trait definition.

    TraitPrefixList is a variation on TraitEnum. The values that can be
    assigned to a trait attribute defined using a TraitPrefixList handler is the
    set of all strings supplied to the TraitPrefixList constructor, as well as
    any unique prefix of those strings. That is, if the set of strings supplied
    to the constructor is described by [*s*\ :sub:`1`\ , *s*\ :sub:`2`\ , ...,
    *s*\ :sub:`n`\ ], then the string *v* is a valid value for the trait if
    *v* == *s*\ :sub:`i[:j]` for one and only one pair of values (i, j). If *v*
    is a valid value, then the actual value assigned to the trait attribute is
    the corresponding *s*\ :sub:`i` value that *v* matched.

    Example
    -------

    class Person(HasTraits):

    The Person class has a **married** trait that accepts any of the
    strings 'y', 'ye', 'yes', 'n', or 'no' as valid values. However, the actual
    values assigned as the value of the trait attribute are limited to either
    'yes' or 'no'. That is, if the value 'y' is assigned to the **married**
    attribute, the actual value assigned will be 'yes'.

    Note that the algorithm used by TraitPrefixList in determining whether a
