refactor make_response to be easier to follow

* be explicit about how tuples are unpacked
* allow bytes for status value
* allow Headers for headers value
* use TypeError instead of ValueError
* errors are more descriptive
* document that view must not return None
* update documentation about return values
* test more response types
* test error messages

"""Convert the return value from a view function to an instance of

must return a response. Returning ``None``, or the view ending
without returning, is not allowed. The following types are allowed
for ``view_rv``:

:attr:`response_class` the object is returned unchanged
:class:`str` a response object is created with the
string as body
:class:`unicode` a response object is created with the
string encoded to utf-8 as body
a WSGI function the function is called as WSGI application
and buffered as response object
:class:`tuple` A tuple in the form ``(response, status,
headers)`` or ``(response, headers)``

======================= ===========================================
:param rv: the return value from the view function
``str`` (``unicode`` in Python 2)
A response object is created with the string encoded to UTF-8
as the body.
``bytes`` (``str`` in Python 2)
A response object is created with the bytes as the body.
``tuple``
Either ``(body, status, headers)``, ``(body, status)``, or
``(body, headers)``, where ``body`` is any of the other types
allowed here, ``status`` is a string or an integer, and
``headers`` is a dictionary or a list of ``(key, value)``
tuples. If ``body`` is a :attr:`response_class` instance,
``status`` overwrites the exiting value and ``headers`` are
extended.
:attr:`response_class`
The object is returned unchanged.
other :class:`~werkzeug.wrappers.Response` class
The object is coerced to :attr:`response_class`.
:func:`callable`
The function is called as a WSGI application. The result is
used to create a response object.
.. versionchanged:: 0.9
Previously a tuple was interpreted as the arguments for the
response object.
