string.Formatter auto-numbering feature was added in 3.4 and there
is no versionchanged note in its documentation, making the documentation
ambiguous about which version the feature is available.

Pattern `[a-z]` with `IGNORECASE` flag can match to some non-ASCII characters.
Straightforward solution for this is using `IGNORECASE | ASCII` flag.
But users may subclass `Template` and override only `idpattern`. So we want to
avoid changing `Template.flags`.
So this commit uses local flag `-i` for `idpattern` and change `[a-z]` to `[a-zA-Z]`.
* bpo-1198569: Allow the braced pattern to be different
``string.Template`` subclasses can optionally define ``braceidpattern`` if
they want to specify different placeholder patterns inside and outside the
braces. If None (the default) it falls back to ``idpattern``.
* Various sections were pointing to the section on the string.Formatter
class, when the section on the common format string syntax is probably more
appropriate
* Fix references to various format() functions and methods
* Nested replacement fields may contain conversions and format specifiers,
and this is tested; see Issue #19729 for instance
