issue12967. And sys.std* in IDLE lacks other common sys.std* methods and
attributes.

sys.stdin.read(sys) and sys.stdout.read() should not work.

I introduced _checked_text_writer, because the implementation of
_RPCFile was broken (I wrote this patch last evening and debug it this
morning). In addition, _RPCFile is a wrapper around RPCFile, which
itself is a wrapper. There are too many layers for me. If you are sure
that the current implementation of _RPCFile is correct, it is not
necessary.

In IDLE sys.std* bad mimic text streams -- this is one issue.
