NodeVisitor recurses over an AST tree. When encountering a node, it
checks if a method called
visit_{node.__class__.__name__}
exists, andcalls it if so, otherwise calls the generic visitor.
Add the possible methods to NodeVisitor. This is not exactly correct,
since the methods don't actually exist on NodeVisitor, e.g.
NodeVisitor().visit_Module(...)
doesn't work. But it's nice forsubclasses to know which methods they can override and which type they
should have.
