- Adds an "Examples of usage" section inspired by the one
found in the gzip docs
- Corrects the descriptions for ``compresslevel`` and ``data``:
- ``compresslevel`` must be an `int`, not any number. For
instance, passing a float will raise ``TypeError``
- Notes that `data` must be bytes-like

bpo-36719: regrtest -jN no longer stops on crash (GH-13231)
"python3 -m test -jN ..." now continues the execution of next tests
when a worker process crash (CHILD_ERROR state). Previously, the test
suite stopped immediately. Use --failfast to stop at the first error.
Update 'unicode' capitalization. 'Unicode' is a proper noun, and as such should be capitalized.
Changed multiple instances.

bpo-35125: remove inner callback on outer cancellation in asyncio shield (GH-10340)
When the future returned by shield is cancelled, its completion callback of the
inner future is not removed. This makes the callback list of inner inner future
grow each time a shield is created and cancelled.
This change unregisters the callback from the inner future when the outer
future is cancelled.
bpo-31922: Do not connect UDP sockets when broadcast is allowed (GH-423)
*Moved from python/asyncioGH-493.*
This PR fixes issue python/asyncioGH-480, as explained in [this comment](https://github.com/python/asyncio/issues/480GH-issuecomment-278703828).
The `_SelectorDatagramTransport.sendto` method has to be modified ~~so `_sock.sendto` is used in all cases (because it is tricky to reliably tell if the socket is connected or not). Could that be an issue for connected sockets?~~ *EDIT* ... so `_sock.send` is used only if `_sock` is connected.
It also protects `socket.getsockname` against `OSError` in `_SelectorTransport`. This might happen on Windows if the socket is not connected (e.g. for UDP broadcasting).

Modern Linux distros such as Debian Buster have default OpenSSL system

resources enabled to skip these tests when they encounter such a failure.

[3.7] bpo-35726: Prevented QueueHandler formatting from affecting other handlers (GH-11537) (GH-12716)
QueueHandler.prepare() now makes a copy of the record before modifying and enqueueing it, to avoid affecting other handlers in the chain.
(cherry picked from commit da6424e96ada72c15c91bddb0a411acf7119e10a)
Under some conditions the earlier fix for bpo-18075, "Infinite recursion
tests triggering a segfault on Mac OS X", now causes failures on macOS
when attempting to change stack limit with resource.setrlimit
resource.RLIMIT_STACK, like regrtest does when running the test suite.
The reverted change had specified a non-default stack size when linking
the python executable on macOS. As of macOS 10.14.4, the previous
code causes a hard failure when running tests, although similar
failures had been seen under some conditions under some earlier
systems. For now, revert the original change and resume using
the default stack size when linking the interpreter.

Rewrite run_tests_multiprocess() function as a new MultiprocessRunner
class with multiple methods to better report errors and stop
immediately when needed.
Changes:
* Worker processes are now killed immediately if tests are
interrupted or if a test does crash (CHILD_ERROR): worker
processes are killed.
* Rewrite how errors in a worker thread are reported to
the main thread. No longer ignore BaseException or parsing errors
silently.
* Remove 'finished' variable: use worker.is_alive() instead
* Always compute omitted tests. Add Regrtest.get_executed() method.
regrtest now always detects uncollectable objects. Previously, the
check was only enabled by --findleaks. The check now also works with
-jN/--multiprocess N.
--findleaks becomes a deprecated alias to --fail-env-changed.
* bpo-34060: Report system load when running test suite for Windows (GH-8357)
While Windows exposes the system processor queue length, the raw value
used for load calculations on Unix systems, it does not provide an API
to access the averaged value. Hence to calculate the load we must track
and average it ourselves. We can't use multiprocessing or a thread to
read it in the background while the tests run since using those would
conflict with test_multiprocessing and test_xxsubprocess.
Thus, we use Window's asynchronous IO API to run the tracker in the
background with it sampling at the correct rate. When we wish to access
the load we check to see if there's new data on the stream, if there is,
we update our load values.

* bpo-27645, sqlite: Fix integer overflow on sleep (#6594)
Use the _PyTime_t type and round away from zero (ROUND_UP,
_PyTime_ROUND_TIMEOUT) the sleep duration, when converting a Python
object to seconds and then to milliseconds. Raise an OverflowError in
case of overflow.
Previously the (int)double conversion rounded towards zero
(ROUND_DOWN).
In the documentation for the call_later and the call_at methods there is a note which says that the delay cannot be longer than a day, but both methods have a note saying that this limitation was removed in Python 3.8
Here I fixed this issue by removing the pre-exising note and added a versionchanged.
To test my changes I have rebuilt the documentation with ```make html```. I did not have any errors and the effected page displayed correctly on a browser.
shutil.which() and distutils.spawn.find_executable() now use
os.confstr("CS_PATH") if available instead of os.defpath, if the PATH
environment variable is not set.
Don't use os.confstr("CS_PATH") nor os.defpath if the PATH
environment variable is set to an empty string.
Changes:
* find_executable() now starts by checking for the executable in the
current working directly case. Add an explicit
"if not path: return None".
* Add tests for PATH='' (empty string), PATH=':' and for PATHEXT.
