Noissue - Extend Python style guide

 title=Coding Style
 
 
 <h2 id="precedence">{{s1 Precedence}}</h2>
 
 <p>{{s2 The Adblock Plus coding style is based on others. Our rules (both general and language specific) always overrule referenced style guides. The language specific sections overrule the general section.}}</p>
 
 <h2 id="consistency">{{s3 Consistency}}</h2>
 
 <p>{{s4 Consistency is most important: Be consistent within functions, files, modules and projects. Making existing code conform with this style guide is fine, but it should happen in dedicated commits, preferably for a whole module or project at once.}}</p>
