embed() does not honor locals when a script is used #841

Hi,

I'm using bpython to embed a python intepreter into my application. When a script is used, locals through embed() are lost:

from bpython import embed

def hello_world():
    return 'hello!'

embed({'hello': hello_world}, args=['bpython_issue_script.py'])

The script (bpython_issue_script.py) just contains a test: print('hello' in locals())

It should print True but prints False due to:

interpreter.locals = mod.__dict__

Commenting that line solves this issue for me, but I'm not sure if that is the correct fix.

Thanks!
