In contrast to macOS, libedit is available as its own include file and
library on Linux systems to prevent file name clashes. So if both
libraries are available on the system, readline is currently chosen by
default; and if only libedit is available, it is not found at all. This
patch adds a way to link against libedit by adding the following
arguments to configure:
--with-readline link against libreadline (the default)
--with-readline=editline link against libeditline
--with-readline=no disable building the readline module
--without-readline (same)
The runtime detection of libedit vs. readline was already done in commit
7105319ada (2019-12-04, serge-sans-paille: "bpo-38634: Allow
non-apple build to cope with libedit (GH-16986)").
Fixes: GH-12076 ("bpo-13501 Build or disable readline with Editline")
Fixes: bpo-13501 ("Make libedit support more generic; port readline / libedit to FreeBSD")

Add a private list of all stdlib modules: _Py_module_names.
* Add Tools/scripts/generate_module_names.py script.
* Makefile: Add "make regen-module-names" command.
* setup.py: Add --list-module-names option.
* GitHub Action and Travis CI also runs "make regen-module-names",
not ony "make regen-all", to ensure that the module names remains
up to date.
Added --disable-test-modules option to the configure script:
don't build nor install test modules.

At Python exit, if a callback registered with atexit.register()
fails, its exception is now logged. Previously, only some exceptions
were logged, and the last exception was always silently ignored.
Add _PyAtExit_Call() function and remove
PyInterpreterState.atexit_func member. call_py_exitfuncs() now calls
directly _PyAtExit_Call().
The atexit module must now always be built as a built-in module.
- Copy existing xxlimited to xxlimited53 (named for the limited API version it uses)
- Build both modules, both in debug and release
- Test both modules
If no explicit macOS SDK was specified, setup.py should check for
Tcl and TK frameworks in /Library/Frameworks; the previous commit
inadvertently broke that test.
macOS releases numbering has changed as of macOS 11 Big Sur. Previously, major releases were of the form 10.x, 10.x+1, 10.x+2, etc; as of Big Sur, they are now x, x+1, etc, so, for example, 10.15, 10.15.1, ..., 10.15.7, 11, 11.0.1, 11.1, ..., 12, 12.1, etc. Allow Python to build with single-digit deployment target values. Patch provided by FX Coudert.
Previously on VxWorks compiling socket extension module needs the libnet to link. Now VxWorks has moved the replied functions to libc. So removing libnet from setup.py.
On macOS system provided libraries are in a shared library cache
and not at their usual location. This PR teaches distutils to search
in the SDK, even if there was no "-sysroot" argument in
the compiler flags.

* Add support for macOS 11 and Apple Silicon (aka arm64)
As a side effect of this work use the system copy of libffi on macOS, and remove the vendored copy
* Support building on recent versions of macOS while deploying to older versions
This allows building installers on macOS 11 while still supporting macOS 10.9.
Use _PyLong_GetZero() and _PyLong_GetOne() in Modules/ directory.
_cursesmodule.c and zoneinfo.c are now built with
Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro defined.
The private _PyUnicode_Name_CAPI structure of the PyCapsule API
unicodedata.ucnhash_CAPI moves to the internal C API. Moreover, the
structure gets a new state member which must be passed to the
getcode() and getname() functions.
* Move Include/ucnhash.h to Include/internal/pycore_ucnhash.h
* unicodedata module is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE.
* unicodedata: move hashAPI variable into unicodedata_module_state.
This API is relatively lightweight and organizationally, given that it's
used by multiple modules, it makes sense to move it to fileutils.
Requires making sure that _posixsubprocess is compiled with the appropriate
Py_BUIILD_CORE_BUILTIN macro.
The PyObject_INIT() and PyObject_INIT_VAR() macros become aliases to,
respectively, PyObject_Init() and PyObject_InitVar() functions.
Rename _PyObject_INIT() and _PyObject_INIT_VAR() static inline
functions to, respectively, _PyObject_Init() and _PyObject_InitVar(),
and move them to pycore_object.h. Remove their return value:
their return type becomes void.
The _datetime module is now built with the Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro
defined.
Remove an outdated comment on _Py_tracemalloc_config.
This commit removes the old parser, the deprecated parser module, the old parser compatibility flags and environment variables and all associated support code and documentation.
