This docstring has drifted since python2: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/ca079a3ea30098aff3197c559a0e32d42dda6d84/Lib/encodings/__init__.py#L68

When subprocess.Popen() stdin= stdout= or stderr= handles are specified
and appear in pass_fds=, don't close the original fds after dup'ing them.

This implementation and unittest primarily came from @izbyshev (see the PR)

This also removes the old manual p2cread, c2pwrite, and errwrite closing logic
as inheritable flags and _close_open_fds takes care of that properly today without special treatment.

This code is within child_exec() where it is the only thread so there is no
race condition between the dup and _Py_set_inheritable_async_safe call.

Check for functionality via imports rather than checking sys.platform
specifically for Windows

* bpo-33217: Raise TypeError for non-Enum lookups in Enums

HMAC's digestmod was deprecated marked for removal, this removes it as planned.

Many type object initializations labeled a field "tp_size" in the
comment, but the name of that field is tp_basicsize.

The recursive frame pruning code always undercounted the number of elided frames
by one. That is, in the "[Previous line repeated N more times]" message, N would
always be one too few. Near the recursive pruning cutoff, one frame could be
silently dropped. That situation is demonstrated in the OP of the bug report.

The fix is to start the identical frame counter at 1.

also mention the change and its consequences in What's New

This reverts commit 10b59f1b.

This caused installation errors in some cases on Windows.
Patch by Julien Malard.

* Make its default value an empty tuple instead of None.
* Make it a keyword-only parameter.

* Add elimination of non-int-like parameters in math.factorial to "What's new".

* Make sure that when some of the tests in test_smtplib fail, the allocated threads
and sockets are not leaked. 

* Use support.join_thread() instead of thread.join() to avoid infinite blocks.

Some methods of the SMTP class use mutable default arguments. Specially
`send_message` is affected as it mutates one of the args by appending items
to it, which has side effects on further calls.

Pass the user/group name as Unicode to the formatting function,
instead of always decoding a bytes string from UTF-8.

* Add %T format to PyUnicode_FromFormatV(), and so to
  PyUnicode_FromFormat() and PyErr_Format(), to format an object type
  name: equivalent to "%s" with Py_TYPE(obj)->tp_name.
* Replace Py_TYPE(obj)->tp_name with %T format in unicodeobject.c.
* Add unit test on %T format.
* Rename unicode_fromformat_write_cstr() to
  unicode_fromformat_write_utf8(), to make the intent more explicit.

Implement the "attributes objects" parameter of `os.posix_spawn` to complete the implementation and fully cover the underlying API.

* Replace "master process" with "parent process"
* Replace "master option mappings" with "main option mappings"
* Replace "master pattern object" with "main pattern object"
* ssl: replace "master" with "server"
* And some other similar changes

Rename also run_tests_slave() to run_tests_worker().

Release GIL on grp.getgrnam(), grp.getgrgid(), pwd.getpwnam() and
pwd.getpwuid() if reentrant variants of these functions are available.

Patch by William Grzybowski.

When calling tp_descr_get(self, obj, type), make sure that
we own a strong reference to "self".

Fix for invalid assert on big output of multiprocessing.Process.

distutils.spawn.find_executable() now falls back on os.defpath if the
PATH environment variable is not set.
