Use @staticmethod on methods using @classmethod but don't use their
cls parameter on the following classes:
* BuiltinImporter
* FrozenImporter
* WindowsRegistryFinder
* PathFinder
Leave methods using @_requires_builtin or @_requires_frozen unchanged,
since this decorator requires the wrapped method to have an extra parameter
(cls or self).
Simplify the importlib external bootstrap code:
importlib._bootstrap_external now uses regular imports to import
builtin modules. When it is imported, the builtin __import__()
function is already fully working and so can be used to import
builtin modules like sys.
* bpo-39336: Allow setattr to fail on modules which aren't assignable
When attaching a child module to a package if the object in sys.modules raises an AttributeError (e.g. because it is immutable) it causes the whole import to fail. This now allows immutable packages to exist and an ImportWarning is reported and the AttributeError exception is ignored.
Imports now raise `TypeError` instead of `ValueError` for relative import failures. This makes things consistent between `builtins.__import__` and `importlib.__import__` as well as using a more natural import for the failure.

* bpo-35321: Set the spec origin to frozen in frozen modules
This fix correctly sets the spec origin to
"frozen" for the _frozen_importlib module. Note that the
origin was already correctly set in _frozen_importlib_external.
* 📜🤖 Added by blurb_it.
Modules imported last are now cleared first at interpreter shutdown.
A newly imported module is moved to the end of sys.modules, behind
modules on which it depends.
Use sys.modules.get() in the "with _ModuleLockManager(name):" block
to protect the dictionary key with the module lock and use an atomic
get to prevent race condition.
Remove also _bootstrap._POPULATE since it was unused
(_bootstrap_external now has its own _POPULATE object), add a new
_SENTINEL object instead.
* Rewrite importlib _get_module_lock(): it is now responsible to hold
the imp lock directly.
* _find_and_load() now holds the module lock to check if name is in
sys.modules to prevent a race condition
PEP 432 specifies a number of large changes to interpreter startup code, including exposing a cleaner C-API. The major changes depend on a number of smaller changes. This patch includes all those smaller changes.
