* Add test.support._crash_python() which triggers a crash but uses
test.support.SuppressCrashReport() to prevent a crash report from
popping up.
* Modify test_child_terminated_in_stopped_state() of test_subprocess
and test_crashed() of test_regrtest to use _crash_python().
* Add Windows support to test.support.SuppressCrashReport: call
SetErrorMode() and CrtSetReportMode().
* _testcapi: add CrtSetReportMode() and CrtSetReportFile() functions
and CRT_xxx and CRTDBG_xxx constants needed by SuppressCrashReport.
* bpo-30764: Backport support.SuppressCrashReport
Backport test.support.SuppressCrashReport context-manager from
master. Drop the Windows implementation since it depends on
msvcrt.CrtSetReportMode() which isn't available on Python 2.7.
* bpo-30764: test_subprocess uses SuppressCrashReport (#2405)
bpo-30764, bpo-29335: test_child_terminated_in_stopped_state() of
test_subprocess now uses support.SuppressCrashReport() to prevent the
creation of a core dump on FreeBSD.

The current regex based splitting produces a wrong result. For example::
http://abc#@def
Web browsers parse that URL as ``http://abc/#@def``, that is, the host
is ``abc``, the path is ``/``, and the fragment is ``#@def``.

regrtest now warms up caches: create explicitly all internal
singletons which are created on demand to prevent false positives
when checking for reference leaks.
* bpo-24484: Avoid race condition in multiprocessing cleanup
The finalizer registry can be mutated while inspected by multiprocessing
at process exit.
* Use test.support.start_threads()
* Add Misc/NEWS.
(cherry picked from commit 1eb6c0074d)
Add a test to check the current MAGIC_NUMBER against the
expected number for the release if the current release is
at candidate or final level. On test failure, describe to
the developer the procedure for changing the magic number.
This ensures that pre-merge CI will automatically pick up
on magic number changes in maintenance releases (and
explain why those are problematic), rather than relying on
all core developers to be aware of the implications of
such changes.
On Windows, subprocess.Popen.communicate() now also ignore EINVAL
on stdin.write() if the child process is still running but closed the
pipe.

* bpo-30414: multiprocesing.Queue._feed do not break from main loop on exc
Queue background running thread was not handling exceptions correctly.
Any exception occurred inside thread (putting unpickable object) cause
feeder to finish running. After that every message put into queue is
silently ignored.
