    closes bpo-31650: PEP 552 (Deterministic pycs) implementation (#4575) · 42aa93b8
    Benjamin Peterson yazdı
    Python now supports checking bytecode cache up-to-dateness with a hash of the
    source contents rather than volatile source metadata. See the PEP for details.
    
    While a fairly straightforward idea, quite a lot of code had to be modified due
    to the pervasiveness of pyc implementation details in the codebase. Changes in
    this commit include:
    
    - The core changes to importlib to understand how to read, validate, and
      regenerate hash-based pycs.
    
    - Support for generating hash-based pycs in py_compile and compileall.
    
    - Modifications to our siphash implementation to support passing a custom
      key. We then expose it to importlib through _imp.
    
    - Updates to all places in the interpreter, standard library, and tests that
      manually generate or parse pyc files to grok the new format.
    
    - Support in the interpreter command line code for long options like
      --check-hash-based-pycs.
    
    - Tests and documentation for all of the above.
