gh-129011: Update docs for Raw I/O read, readinto, and write (GH-135328)
Update `RawIOBase` and `FileIO` documentation to match implementation
behavior around `.read`, `.readinto`, `.readall` and `.write`.
In particular:
- They may make more than one system call (PEP-475)
- Add warnings if `.write()` requires a wrapping retry loop (see: gh-126606)
- "Raw I/O" `.write`` may not write all bytes
- `buffering=0` example results in a "Raw I/O"
(cherry picked from commit e4db68b9c990ed1bb7562094bee2e73f4450d42b)
ass_subscript_slice() returned early when the computed slice length
was zero, bypassing validation performed for non-empty slices.

[3.14] Correct Stable ABI documentation for METH_FASTCALL (GH-149593) (GH-150852)
The current documentation says:
>
> METH_FASTCALL
> Part of the Stable ABI since version 3.7.
>
> [...]
>
> Added in version 3.7.
>
> Changed in version 3.10: METH_FASTCALL is now part of the stable ABI.
so is contradictory about when it was added to the Stable ABI. Looking at the header it seems like 3.10 is right.

The following classes are documented publicly as functions, and are
therefore updated internally (`__class_getitem__.__doc__`) but not in the
public docs:
- functools.partial
- itertools.chain
The following builtin types have updates to `__class_getitem__.__doc__`
but not to any documentation pages:
- union objects are now documented as "supporting class-level []",
rather than anything to do with generics.
- Templates might be generic over a single type (union, in theory) or
over a TypeVarTuple. As this is not currently fully settled, it is
marked with a comment and a mild hint that it is a single type is used
(namely, "type" is singular rather than "types", plural)
* Apply suggestions from code review
* Correct several class getitem docs
And expand the text for tuples.
* Add notes on generic typing of builtins
* Fix typo in tuple.__class_getitem__ docstring
* Typo fix: malformed refs
Fix `generic` links which weren't marked as `:ref:`.
* Strike unnecessary docs on generic-ness
* Apply suggestions from code review
These are applied at both the originally indicated locations and in the
corresponding docstring definitions.
* Update Doc/library/re.rst
* Update Objects/enumobject.c
* Remove tuple generic doc in 'stdtypes' page
This is covered in more detail in the cross-linked typing documentation.
The other copy of this documentation -- in the docstring for
`tuple.__class_getitem__` -- is left in place.
* Fix whitespace around new doc of generics
Per review, do not introduce or remove whitespace such that section
breaks are altered by the introduction of doc on various generic types.
In most cases, this is a removal of an extra line.
In one case (Arrays), it is the reintroduction of a line.
Additionally, two other minor fixes are included:
- incorrect indent on 'defaultdicts'
- make `mappingproxy.__class_getitem__.__doc__` consistent with other
mapping type generic docs
* Move placement of memoryview generic note
Previous placement was at the end of the main docstring, which is
consistent with other types but places it after a section on various
methods (which makes it read somewhat inconsistently). Moving it up
helps resolve.
* Ensure sphinxdoc does not start sentences lowercase
Lowercase class names at the start of sentences are marked out with the
`class` role. In the case of `deque`, documentation already refers to
these as `Deques`, so this form is preferred.
* Apply suggestions from code review
* Fix line endings and wrap more tightly
Line endings fixed by pre-commit ; also re-wrapped the MappingProxyType
text which was too long.
BufferedRandom does not inherit from BufferedReader and BufferedWriter
in the C implementation.

gh-89554: Document _thread.LockType as a class (GH-150684)
_thread.LockType is a class (the type of lock objects), but was documented
with the ".. data::" directive, so ":class:" cross-references to it cannot
resolve against a py:class target.
Switch the entry to ".. class::", move it next to the lock methods, and
document acquire(), release() and locked() as methods of the class. Keep
the old _thread.lock.* URL fragments working with raw HTML anchors.

[3.14] gh-149079: Fix O(n^2) canonical ordering in unicodedata.normalize() (GH-149080)
Replace the insertion sort used for canonical ordering of combining
characters with a hybrid approach: insertion sort for short runs (< 20)
and counting sort for longer runs, reducing worst-case complexity from
O(n^2) to O(n). This prevents denial of service via crafted Unicode
strings with many combining characters in alternating CCC order.

ThreadingMock._increment_mock_call() was not thread-safe.
Multiple threads calling the mock simultaneously could lose
increments due to race conditions on call_count and other
attributes.
Fix by overriding _increment_mock_call in ThreadingMixin
and wrapping it with the existing _mock_calls_events_lock.

[3.14] gh-149995: Update typing.py docstrings and documentation (GH-149996)
Some of these docstrings read as if they were written when typing.py was
first written, and things have evolved since then.
A few motivations:
- Call protocols protocols instead of ABCs. They are also ABCs, but the fact
they are protocols is more relevant to typing.
- Avoid recommending direct use of .__annotations__ and steer users to
annotationlib instead.
- For TypedDict, mention NotRequired before total=False since it is more
general and probably more frequently useful.
- For overloads, mention runtime use first instead of stub use. I think early on
there was talk of allowing overload only in stubs, but it is now heavily used at
runtime too and that's more likely to be relevant to users.
