This changes the equivalent functions listed for the Base-64, hex and Quoted-
Printable codecs to reflect the functions actually used. Also mention and
test the "quotetabs" setting for Quoted-Printable encoding.

It should StreamWriter for Codecs.encode() and StreamReader for Codec.decode().

decoding and translating.

Patch by Martin Panter to clean up some problems with the merge
of the codecs docs changes from Python 3.4.

- clarified the distinction between text encodings and other codecs
- clarified relationship with builtin open and the io module
- consolidated documentation of error handlers into one section
- clarified type constraints of some behaviours
- added tests for some of the new statements in the docs

* Updated version info to 3.5
* Fixed a markup error
* Added a versionadded directive to namereplace_errors documentation

``_Py_wchar2char()`` to :c:func:`Py_EncodeLocale`, and document these
functions.

Also updated the docs and added the aliases mentioned by the

Also updated the docs and added the aliases mentioned by the
references.

The codecs themselves were restored in Python 3.2, this
completes the restoration by adding back the convenience
aliases.

These aliases were originally left out due to confusing
errors when attempting to use them with the text encoding
specific convenience methods. Python 3.4 includes several
improvements to those errors, thus permitting the aliases
to be restored as well.

The utf-16* and utf-32* encoders no longer allow surrogate code points
(U+D800-U+DFFF) to be encoded.
The utf-32* decoders no longer decode byte sequences that correspond to
surrogate code points.
The surrogatepass error handler now works with the utf-16* and utf-32* codecs.

Based on patches by Victor Stinner and Kang-Hao (Kenny) Lu.

Fix order of required StreamReader/StreamWriter base classes.  Spotted by Edward Welbourne on docs@.

This mostly affected the encodebytes and decodebytes function
(which are used by base64_codec)

Also added a test to ensure all bytes-bytes codecs can handle
memoryview input and tests for handling of multidimensional
and non-bytes format input in the modern base64 API.

Also, improve some docstring descriptions of the 'errors' parameter.

Closes #14015.
