bpo-38293: Allow shallow and deep copying of property objects (GH-16438)
Copying property objects results in a TypeError. Steps to reproduce: ``` >>> import copy >>> obj = property() >>> copy.copy(obj) ```` This affects both shallow and deep copying. My idea for a fix is to add property objects to the list of "atomic" objects in the copy module. These already include types like functions and type objects. I also added property objects to the unit tests test_copy_atomic and test_deepcopy_atomic. This is my first PR, and it's highly likely I've made some mistake, so please be kind :) https://bugs.python.org/issue38293
