Fixes `loop.add_writer` and `loop.add_signal_handler` method documentation to correctly reference the callback parameter from method signature.

Remove platform.popen() function, it was deprecated since Python 3.3:
use os.popen() instead.
Rename also the "Removed" section to "API and Feature Removals"
of What's New in Python 3.8.
Fix invalid function cast warnings with gcc 8
for method conventions different from METH_NOARGS, METH_O and
METH_VARARGS excluding Argument Clinic generated code.
That section is a tip on how to kill process on Windows for Python prior to 2.7 and 3.2.
3.1 end of support was April 2012 and 2.6 was October 2013, so that hasn't been need for supported versions of Python for more than 5 years. Beside not being needed anymore for a long time, when I read it with the eyes of a Python profane, it makes Python looks bad, like a language from the parts with warts you need to circumvent.
Let's delete that :)
locale.localeconv() now sets temporarily the LC_CTYPE locale to the
LC_MONETARY locale if the two locales are different and monetary
strings are non-ASCII. This temporary change affects other threads.
Changes:
* locale.localeconv() can now set LC_CTYPE to LC_MONETARY to decode
monetary fields.
* Add LocaleInfo.grouping_buffer: copy localeconv() grouping string
since it can be replaced anytime if a different thread calls
localeconv().
* _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() now requires a "struct lconv *"
structure, so locale.localeconv() now longer calls localeconv()
twice. Moreover, the function now requires all arguments to be
non-NULL.
* Rename STATIC_LOCALE_INFO_INIT to LocaleInfo_STATIC_INIT.
* Move _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() definition from fileutils.h
to pycore_fileutils.h. pycore_fileutils.h now includes locale.h.
* The _locale module is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE defined.
* universal_newlines defaulting to False would suggest, that not
specifying universal_newlines explicitly and setting text to True
should cause an error, which is not the case.
* The run function didn't have the universal_newlines parameter
documented
* The check_output function didn't have its text parameter documented
The documentation was not covering multiple targets enclosed by
parenthesis nor multiple targets enclosed by brackets, adding them all
would be heavy, an else cover them all and is lighter to read.
The System Preferences Dock "prefer tabs always" setting disables some
IDLE features. Menus are a bit different than as described for Windows
and Linux.
1) Convert weird field name "typ" to the more standard "type".
2) For the NUMBER type, convert the value to an int() or float().
3) Simplify ``group(kind)`` to the shorter and faster ``group()`` call.
4) Simplify logic go a single if-elif chain to make this easier to extend.
5) Reorder the tests to match the order the tokens are specified.
This isn't necessary for correctness but does make the example
easier to follow.
6) Move the "column" calculation before the if-elif chain so that
users have the option of using this value in error messages.
