New Debugger Info

I've been building my own debugger as an upgrade to pdb, called pdbp (Pdb+): https://github.com/mdmintz/pdbp. Originally, I tried using https://github.com/pdbpp/pdbpp, but that has bugs, and the maintainer hasn't fixed them yet. My only alternative is to build my own debugger clone if I want all my required fixes in.

The good news is that I'm already done. The whole project and upgrade took me less than a day to complete! I'm just testing the parts to make sure everything is good before I include the new Python packages as a SeleniumBase dependency. Here's what was made:

• https://github.com/mdmintz/tabcompleter (a replacement for https://github.com/pdbpp/fancycompleter)
• https://github.com/mdmintz/pdbp (a replacement for https://github.com/pdbpp/pdbpp)

Here's what the main issue was: pdbpp has a dependency on fancycompleter, which has a Windows dependency on pyreadline (https://github.com/pyreadline/pyreadline), which has this issue: pyreadline/pyreadline#65, which leads to this error: AttributeError: module 'collections' has no attribute 'Callable'.

Here's what I did: I created pdbp with a dependency on my own library tabcompleter, which has a dependency on the improved pyreadline3 (https://github.com/pyreadline3/pyreadline3/) instead of pyreadline. Then things started working again. As a bonus, I fixed some bugs and improved on default configuration settings.

If testing goes well, the new debugger,pdbp / (Pdb+) will be included with SeleniumBase dependencies very soon.
