Backport r45505, r45573, r45576
...
- reset errno before calling confstr - use confstr() doc to simplify
checks afterwards
- Correct implementation and documentation of os.confstr. Add a simple
test case. I've yet to figure out how to provoke a None return I can test.
- Address issues brought up by MvL on python-checkins.
I tested this with valgrind on amd64.
The man pages I found for diff architectures are inconsistent on this.
I'm not entirely sure this change is correct for all architectures
either.
Perhaps we should just over-allocate and not worry about it?
The change to return None instead of "" in case of unconfigured
values has not been backported.
