tarfile is now able to read and write pax headers with a
"hdrcharset=BINARY" record. This record was introduced in
POSIX.1-2008 as a method to store unencoded binary strings that
cannot be translated to UTF-8. In practice, this is just a workaround
that allows a tar implementation to store filenames that do not
comply with the current filesystem encoding and thus cannot be
decoded correctly.
Additionally, tarfile works around a bug in current versions of GNU
tar: undecodable filenames are stored as-is in a pax header without a
"hdrcharset" record being added. Technically, these headers are
invalid, but tarfile manages to read them correctly anyway.

Issue #1285086: Speed up urllib.quote and urllib.unquote for simple cases.
........
_PyUnicode_AsDefaultEncodedString() uses a magical PyUnicode attribute to
automatically destroy PyUnicode_EncodeUTF8() result when the unicode string is
destroyed.
PyObject_Print() writes into the C object stderr, whereas PySys_WriteStderr()
writes into the Python object sys.stderr. Each object has its own buffer, so
call sys.stderr.flush() and fflush(stderr).
* Replace os.defpath instead of os.get_exec_path() to test also
os.get_exec_path()
* Use contextlib.contextmanager, move the mockup outside the class, and
the mockup returns directly the call list object
* Use two different contexts for the two tests
* Use more revelant values and names

Clear the OpenSSL error queue each time an error is signalled.
When the error queue is not emptied, strange things can happen on the next SSL call, depending on the OpenSSL version.

Use with open() as fo: ... instead of try: fo = open(...) finally: fo.close()
fo is not set if the open() fails.

(1) use a different algorithm that roughly halves the total number of
multiplications required and results in more balanced multiplications
(2) use a lookup table for small arguments
(3) fast accumulation of products in C integer arithmetic rather than
PyLong arithmetic when possible.
Typical speedup, from unscientific testing on a 64-bit laptop, is 4.5x
to 6.5x for arguments in the range 100 - 10000.
Patch by Daniel Stutzbach; extensive reviews by Alexander Belopolsky.
