When changing PyType_FromMetaclass recently (GH-93012, GH-93466, GH-28748)
I found a bunch of opportunities to improve the code. Here they are.
Fixes: #89546
Automerge-Triggered-By: GH:encukou
Suppress writing an XML declaration in open files in ElementTree.write()
with encoding='unicode' and xml_declaration=None.
If file patch is passed to ElementTree.write() with encoding='unicode',
always open a new file in UTF-8.
Classes ReferenceType, ProxyType and CallableProxyType have now correct
atrtributes __module__, __name__ and __qualname__.
It makes them (types, not instances) pickleable.
It combines PyImport_ImportModule() and PyObject_GetAttrString()
and saves 4-6 lines of code on every use.
Add also _PyImport_GetModuleAttr() which takes Python strings as arguments.
Fix the importlib.resources.as_file() context manager to remove the
temporary file if destroyed late during Python finalization: keep a
local reference to the os.remove() function. Patch by Victor Stinner.
Documentation for `pathlib` says:
> Spurious slashes and single dots are collapsed, but double dots ('..') are not, since this would change the meaning of a path in the face of symbolic links:
However, it omits that initial double slashes also aren't collapsed.
Later, in documentation of `PurePath.drive`, `PurePath.root`, and `PurePath.name` it mentions UNC but:
- this abbreviation says nothing to a person who is unaware about existence of UNC (Wikipedia doesn't help either by [giving a disambiguation page](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNC))
- it shows up only if a person needs to use a specific property or decides to fully learn what the module provides.
For context, see the BPO entry.
This checks the bases of of a type created using the FromSpec
API to inherit the bases metaclasses. The metaclass's alloc
function will be called as is done in `tp_new` for classes
created in Python.

copy.copy() and copy.deepcopy() now always raise a TypeError if
__reduce__() returns a tuple with length 6 instead of silently ignore
the 6th item or produce incorrect result.
Fixup of GH-93463:
- remove stray print
- use proper way to check file mode
- add working chmod decorator

* Remove outdated notes from functions that aren't in the Limited API
Nowadays everything that *is* in the Limited API has a note added
automatically.
These notes could mislead people to think that these functions
could never be added to the limited API. Remove them.
* Also remove forgotten note on tp_vectorcall_offset not being finalized
