templater: add shorthand for building a dict like {"key": key}

Like field init shorthand of Rust. This is convenient for building a JSON
object from selected keywords.

This means dict() won't support Python-like dict(iterable) syntax because
it's ambiguous. Perhaps it could be implemented as 'mapdict(xs % (k, v))'.

# A portable replacement for 'seq'
#
# Usage:
#   seq STOP              [1, STOP] stepping by 1
#   seq START STOP        [START, STOP] stepping by 1
#   seq START STEP STOP   [START, STOP] stepping by STEP

if len(sys.argv) > 2:
    start = int(sys.argv[1])

step = 1
if len(sys.argv) > 3:
    step = int(sys.argv[2])

stop = int(sys.argv[-1]) + 1

for i in xrange(start, stop, step):
    print(i)
