In configdialog: Document causal pathways in create_font_tab docstring.  Simplify some attribute names. Move set_samples calls to var_changed_font (idea from Cheryl Sabella).  Move related functions to positions after the create widgets function.

In test_configdialog: Fix test_font_set so not order dependent.  Fix renamed test_indent_scale so it tests the widget.  Adjust tests for movement of set_samples call.  Add tests for load functions.  Put all font tests in one class and tab indent tests in another.  Except for two lines, these tests completely cover the related functions.

* Document causal event pathways in docstring.
* Simplify some attribute names.
* Rename test_bold_toggle_set_samples to make test_font_set fail.
* Fix test_font_set so not order dependent.
* Fix renamed test_indent_scale so it tests the widget.

* Fix #30919: shared memory allocation performance regression in multiprocessing

* Change strategy for Arena directory choice

* bpo-26732: fix too many fds in processes started with the "forkserver" method

A child process would inherit as many fds as the number of still-running children.

* Add blurb and test comment

Remove broken test of bold_toggle and test it along with its command, set_samples.
This has been incorporated into 3.6 backport PR-2796.

Use sys.modules.get() in the "with _ModuleLockManager(name):" block
to protect the dictionary key with the module lock and use an atomic
get to prevent race condition.

Remove also _bootstrap._POPULATE since it was unused
(_bootstrap_external now has its own _POPULATE object), add a new
_SENTINEL object instead.

* bpo-19896: Add typcodes 'q' and 'Q' to multiprocessing.sharedctypes. Patch by Antony Lee.

* Add NEWS entry.

* Slightly tweak NEWS entry

Make it clear this is more of a fix rather than a new feature.

Adds a new 'Pip not installed' section that covers
running `ensurepip` manually, and also references
the relevant section of the Python Packaging User
Guide.

Only C implementation was tested.

When running the test suite using --use=all / -u all, exclude tzdata
since it makes test_datetime too slow (15-20 min on some buildbots)
which then times out on some buildbots.

-u tzdata must now be enabled explicitly, -u tzdata or -u all,tzdata,
to run all test_datetime tests.

Fix also regrtest command line parser to allow passing -u
extralargefile to run test_zipfile64.

Travis CI: remove -tzdata. Replace -u all,-tzdata,-cpu with -u all,-cpu since tzdata is now excluded from -u all.

Cython will, in the right circumstances, offer a MethodType instance
where im_func is a builtin function. Any instance of MethodType is
automatically assumed to be a Python-defined function (more
specifically, a function that has an inspectable signature), but
_set_signature was still conservative in its assumptions. As a result
_set_signature would return early with None instead of a mock since
the im_func had no inspectable signature. This causes problems
deeper inside mock, as _set_signature is assumed to _always_
return a mock, and nothing checked its return value.

In similar corner cases, autospec will simply not check the spec of the
function, so _set_signature is amended to now return early with the
original, not-wrapped mock object.

AIX uses iso8859-1 in the C locale, not ASCII

AIX doesn't currently provide any of the locale
coercion locales, but we leave locale coercion
enabled in case one gets added in the future.
