bpo-24241: Improve preferred webbrowser handling (#85)
- Add 'preferred' argument to webbrowser.register - Use xdg-settings to specify preferred X browser The first change replaces the existing undocumented tri-state 'try_order' parameter with the documented boolean keyword-only 'preferred' parameter. Setting it to True places the browser at the front of the list, preferring it as the return to a subsequent get() call. The second change adds a private `_os_preferred_browser` setting and then uses that to make the default browser reported by `xdg-settings` first in the try list when running under X (or another environment that sets the `DISPLAY` variable). This avoids the problem where the first entry in the tryorder queue otherwise defaults to xdg-open, which doesn't support the "new window" option.
