Éric Araujo 713d3039dc Fix usage of :option: in the docs (#9312).
:option: is used to create a link to an option of python, not to mark
up any instance of any arbitrary command-line option.  These were
changed to ````.

For modules which do have a command-line interface, lists of options
have been properly marked up with the program/cmdoption directives
combo.  Options defined in such blocks can be linked to with :option:
later in the same file, they won’t link to an option of python.

Finally, the markup of command-line fragments in optparse.rst has
been cleaned to use ``x`` instead of ``"x"``, keeping that latter
form for actual Python strings.

Patch by Eli Bendersky and Éric Araujo.

  #2560: remove an unnecessary 'for' loop from my_fgets() in Parser/myreadline.c.
  Noted by Joseph Armbruster; patch by Jessica McKellar.

  The original code was 'for (;;) {...}', where ... ended
  with a 'return -2' statement and did not contain a 'break' or 'continue'
  statement.  Therefore, the body of the loop is always executed once.

  Once upon a time there was a 'continue' in the loop, but it was removed in
  rev36346, committed by mwh on Wed Jul 7 17:44:12 2004.

  PyCode_NewEmpty:
  Most uses of PyCode_New found by http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=PyCode_New
  are trying to build an empty code object, usually to put it in a dummy frame
  object. This patch adds a PyCode_NewEmpty wrapper which lets the user specify
  just the filename, function name, and first line number, instead of also
  requiring lots of code internals.

  Issue 5954, PyFrame_GetLineNumber:
  Most uses of PyCode_Addr2Line
  (http://www.google.com/codesearch?q=PyCode_Addr2Line) are just trying to get
  the line number of a specified frame, but there's no way to do that directly.
  Forcing people to go through the code object makes them know more about the
  guts of the interpreter than they should need.

  The remaining uses of PyCode_Addr2Line seem to be getting the line from a
  traceback (for example,
  http://www.google.com/codesearch/p?hl=en#u_9_nDrchrw/pygame-1.7.1release/src/base.c&q=PyCode_Addr2Line),
  which is replaced by the tb_lineno field.  So we may be able to deprecate
  PyCode_Addr2Line entirely for external use.

  Issue #6042:
  lnotab-based tracing is very complicated and isn't documented very well.  There
  were at least 3 comment blocks purporting to document co_lnotab, and none did a
  very good job. This patch unifies them into Objects/lnotab_notes.txt which
  tries to completely capture the current state of affairs.

  I also discovered that we've attached 2 layers of patches to the basic tracing
  scheme. The first layer avoids jumping to instructions that don't start a line,
  to avoid problems in if statements and while loops.  The second layer
  discovered that jumps backward do need to trace at instructions that don't
  start a line, so it added extra lnotab entries for 'while' and 'for' loops, and
  added a special case for backward jumps within the same line. I replaced these
  patches by just treating forward and backward jumps differently.

Mark Dickinson b08a53a99d Issue #1580: use short float repr where possible.
- incorporate and adapt David Gay's dtoa and strtod
   into the Python core
 - on platforms where we can use Gay's code (almost
   all!), repr(float) is based on the shortest
   sequence of decimal digits that rounds correctly.
 - add sys.float_repr_style attribute to indicate
   whether we're using Gay's code or not
 - add autoconf magic to detect and enable SSE2
   instructions on x86/gcc
 - slight change to repr and str:  repr switches
   to exponential notation at 1e16 instead of
   1e17, str switches at 1e11 instead of 1e12
