* Support HTTP response status code 308 in urllib.
HTTP response status code 308 is defined in https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7538 to be the permanent redirect variant of 307 (temporary redirect).
* Update documentation to include http_error_308()
* Add blurb for bpo-40321 fix

In the list of generated frozen modules at the top of Tools/scripts/freeze_modules.py, you will find that some of the modules have a different name than the module (or .py file) that is actually frozen. Let's call each case an "alias". Aliases do not come into play until we get to the (generated) list of modules in Python/frozen.c. (The tool for freezing modules, Programs/_freeze_module, is only concerned with the source file, not the module it will be used for.)
Knowledge of which frozen modules are aliases (and the identity of the original module) normally isn't important. However, this information is valuable when we go to set __file__ on frozen stdlib modules. This change updates Tools/scripts/freeze_modules.py to map aliases to the original module name (or None if not a stdlib module) in Python/frozen.c. We also add a helper function in Python/import.c to look up a frozen module's alias and add the result of that function to the frozen info returned from find_frozen().

Before this change we end up duplicating effort and throwing away data in FrozenImporter.find_spec(). Now we do the work once in find_spec() and the only thing we do in FrozenImporter.exec_module() is turn the raw frozen data into a code object and then exec it.
We've added _imp.find_frozen(), add an arg to _imp.get_frozen_object(), and updated FrozenImporter. We've also moved some code around to reduce duplication, get a little more consistency in outcomes, and be more efficient.
Note that this change is mostly necessary if we want to set __file__ on frozen stdlib modules. (See https://bugs.python.org/issue21736.)

* bpo-44594: fix (Async)ExitStack handling of __context__
Make enter_context(foo()) / enter_async_context(foo()) equivalent to
`[async] with foo()` regarding __context__ when an exception is raised.
Previously exceptions would be caught and re-raised with the wrong
context when explicitly overriding __context__ with None.
WaitForSingleObject() accepts timeout in milliseconds in the range
[0; 0xFFFFFFFE] (DWORD type). INFINITE value (0xFFFFFFFF) means no
timeout. 0xFFFFFFFE milliseconds is around 49.7 days.
PY_TIMEOUT_MAX is (0xFFFFFFFE * 1000) milliseconds on Windows, around
49.7 days.
Partially revert commit 37b8294d62.
On Unix, if the sem_clockwait() function is available in the C
library (glibc 2.30 and newer), the threading.Lock.acquire() method
now uses the monotonic clock (time.CLOCK_MONOTONIC) for the timeout,
rather than using the system clock (time.CLOCK_REALTIME), to not be
affected by system clock changes.
configure now checks if the sem_clockwait() function is available.
* Work correctly if an additional fresh module imports other
additional fresh module which imports a blocked module.
* Raises ImportError if the specified module cannot be imported
while all additional fresh modules are successfully imported.
* Support blocking packages.
* Always restore the import state of fresh and blocked modules
and their submodules.
* Fix test_decimal and test_xml_etree which depended on an undesired
side effect of import_fresh_module().
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() now clamps the timeout into the
[_PyTime_MIN; _PyTime_MAX] range (_PyTime_t type) if it is too large,
rather than calling Py_FatalError() which aborts the process.
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() no longer uses
MICROSECONDS_TO_TIMESPEC() to compute sem_timedwait() argument, but
_PyTime_GetSystemClock() and _PyTime_AsTimespec_truncate().
Fix _thread.TIMEOUT_MAX value on Windows: the maximum timeout is
0x7FFFFFFF milliseconds (around 24.9 days), not 0xFFFFFFFF
milliseconds (around 49.7 days).
Set PY_TIMEOUT_MAX to 0x7FFFFFFF milliseconds, rather than 0xFFFFFFFF
milliseconds.
Fix PY_TIMEOUT_MAX overflow test: replace (us >= PY_TIMEOUT_MAX) with
(us > PY_TIMEOUT_MAX).
* during tarfile parsing, a zlib error indicates invalid data
* tarfile.open now raises a descriptive exception from the zlib error
* this makes it clear to the user that they may be trying to open a
corrupted tar file
Fix the threading._shutdown() function when the threading module was
imported first from a thread different than the main thread: no
longer log an error at Python exit.
Fix a race condition in the Thread.join() method of the threading
module. If the function is interrupted by a signal and the signal
handler raises an exception, make sure that the thread remains in a
consistent state to prevent a deadlock.
Having `operator.call(obj, arg)` mean `type(obj).__call__(obj, arg)` is
consistent with the other dunder operators. The semantics with `*args,
**kwargs` then follow naturally from the single-arg semantics.
On Windows, time.sleep() now uses a waitable timer which has a
resolution of 100 ns (10^-7 sec). Previously, it had a solution of 1
ms (10^-3 sec).
* On Windows, time.sleep() now calls PyErr_CheckSignals() before
resetting the SIGINT event.
* Add _PyTime_As100Nanoseconds() function.
* Complete and update time.sleep() documentation.
