Issue #7213: Change the close_fds default on Windows to better match the new
default on POSIX. True when possible (False if stdin/stdout/stderr are
supplied).
Update the documentation to reflect all of the above.

other platforms (POSIX). Based on python-dev discussion and

not passed to subprocess.Popen as the default value will be changing in a
future Python to the safer and more often desired value of True.
DeprecationWarnings that show up in a lot of existing code are controversial
and have caused pain in the past. I'd like to leave this on for 3.2 beta1 and
see how things go. We can remove the warning if it is deemed too noisy during
any betas. (case study: the md5 and sha module DeprecationWarnings are loathed
around the world as those modules were never going to be removed in 2.x and
2to3 has a fixer for code that uses them)
Added a few common Popen uses to the tests like we've done for a few other
instances of adding context managers. Eventually the entire test suite
could be converted to use the context manager format.

subprocess.Popen() and os._execvpe() support bytes program name. Add
os.supports_bytes_environ flag: True if the native OS type of the environment
is bytes (eg. False on Windows).
