open() and io.TextIOWrapper are now calling locale.getpreferredencoding(False)
instead of locale.getpreferredencoding() in text mode if the encoding is not
specified. Don't change temporary the locale encoding using locale.setlocale(),
use the current locale encoding instead of the user preferred encoding.
Explain also in open() documentation that locale.getpreferredencoding(False) is
called if the encoding is not specified.
when the path existed and had the S_ISGID mode bit set when it was
not explicitly asked for. This is no longer an exception as mkdir
cannot control if the OS sets that bit for it or not.

This is a behavior change: before this leading and trailing spaces were
stripped from ASCII parts, now they are preserved. Without this fix we didn't
parse the examples in the RFC correctly, so I think breaking backward
compatibility here is justified.
Patch by Ralf Schlatterbeck.
* Formatting string, int, float and complex use the _PyUnicodeWriter API. It
avoids a temporary buffer in most cases.
* Add _PyUnicodeWriter_WriteStr() to restore the PyAccu optimization: just
keep a reference to the string if the output is only composed of one string
* Disable overallocation when formatting the last argument of str%args and
str.format(args)
* Overallocation allocates at least 100 characters: add min_length attribute
to the _PyUnicodeWriter structure
* Add new private functions: _PyUnicode_FastCopyCharacters(),
_PyUnicode_FastFill() and _PyUnicode_FromASCII()
The speed up is around 20% in average.
An issue in ctypes.c_longdouble, ctypes.c_double, and ctypes.c_float that
caused an incorrect exception to be returned in the case of overflow has been
fixed.

This commit also restores the news item for 167256 that it looks like
Terry inadvertently deleted. (Either that, or I don't understand
now merging works...which is equally possible.)
This patch also deprecates the MalformedHeaderDefect. My best guess is that
this defect was rendered obsolete by a refactoring of the parser, and the
corresponding defect for the new parser (which this patch introduces) was
overlooked.
