* bpo-42382: In importlib.metadata, `EntryPoint` objects now expose a `.dist` object referencing the `Distribution` when constructed from a `Distribution`.
Also, sync importlib_metadata 3.3:
- Add support for package discovery under package normalization rules.
- The object returned by `metadata()` now has a formally-defined protocol called `PackageMetadata` with declared support for the `.get_all()` method.
* Add blurb
* Remove latent footnote.
When the modern text= spelling of the universal_newlines= parameter was added
for Python 3.7, check_output's special case around input=None was overlooked.
So it behaved differently with universal_newlines=True vs text=True. This
reconciles the behavior to be consistent and adds a test to guarantee it.
Also clarifies the existing check_output documentation.

Added `__getitem__` for `_CallableGenericAlias` so that it returns a subclass (itself) of `types.GenericAlias` rather than the default behavior of returning a plain `types.GenericAlias`. This fixes `repr` issues occuring after `TypeVar` substitution arising from the previous behavior.
The coding cookie (ex: "# coding: latin1") is now ignored in the
command passed to the -c command line option.
Since pymain_run_command() uses UTF-8, pass PyCF_IGNORE_COOKIE
compiler flag to the parser.
pymain_run_python() no longer propages compiler flags between
function calls.
