* Add length parameter to PyLineTable_InitAddressRange and doen't use sentinel values at end of table. Makes the line number table more robust.
* Update PyCodeAddressRange to match PEP 626.
To improve the user experience understanding what part of the error messages associated with SyntaxErrors is wrong, we can highlight the whole error range and not only place the caret at the first character. In this way:
>>> foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
File "<stdin>", line 1
foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
^
SyntaxError: Generator expression must be parenthesized
becomes
>>> foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
File "<stdin>", line 1
foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
SyntaxError: Generator expression must be parenthesized
* Modify compiler to reduce stack consumption for large expressions.
* Add more tests for stack usage.
* Add NEWS item.
* Raise SystemError for truly excessive stack use.
* Handle check for sending None to starting generator and coroutine into bytecode.
* Document new bytecode and make it fail gracefully if mis-compiled.
* Use instruction offset, rather than bytecode offset. Streamlines interpreter dispatch a bit, and removes most EXTENDED_ARGs for jumps.
* Change some uses of PyCode_Addr2Line to PyFrame_GetLineNumber
Remove the compiler functions using "struct _mod" type, because the
public AST C API was removed:
* PyAST_Compile()
* PyAST_CompileEx()
* PyAST_CompileObject()
* PyFuture_FromAST()
* PyFuture_FromASTObject()
These functions were undocumented and excluded from the limited C API.
Rename functions:
* PyAST_CompileObject() => _PyAST_Compile()
* PyFuture_FromASTObject() => _PyFuture_FromAST()
Moreover, _PyFuture_FromAST() is no longer exported (replace
PyAPI_FUNC() with extern). _PyAST_Compile() remains exported for
test_peg_generator.
Remove also compatibility functions:
* PyAST_Compile()
* PyAST_CompileEx()
* PyFuture_FromAST()
Rename Include/symtable.h to to Include/internal/pycore_symtable.h,
don't export symbols anymore (replace PyAPI_FUNC and PyAPI_DATA with
extern) and rename functions:
* PyST_GetScope() to _PyST_GetScope()
* PySymtable_BuildObject() to _PySymtable_Build()
* PySymtable_Free() to _PySymtable_Free()
Remove PySymtable_Build(), Py_SymtableString() and
Py_SymtableStringObject() functions.
The Py_SymtableString() function was part the stable ABI by mistake
but it could not be used, since the symtable.h header file was
excluded from the limited C API.
The Python symtable module remains available and is unchanged.
Move _PyAST_GetDocString() and _PyAST_ExprAsUnicode() functions the
internal C API: from Include/ast.h to a new
Include/internal/pycore_ast.h header file. Don't export these
functions anymore: replace PyAPI_FUNC() with extern.
Remove also unused includes.
* bpo-43497: Emit SyntaxWarnings for assertions with tuple constants.
Add a test that shows that a tuple constant (a tuple, where all of its
members are also compile-time constants) produces a SyntaxWarning. Then
fix this failure.
* Make SyntaxWarnings also work when "optimized".
* Split tests for SyntaxWarning to SyntaxError conversion
SyntaxWarnings emitted by the compiler when configured to be errors are
actually raised as SyntaxError exceptions.
Move these tests into their own method and add a test to ensure they are
raised. Previously we only tested that they were not raised for a
"valid" assertion statement.
* Replace Py_FatalError() calls with regular SystemError exceptions.
* compiler_exit_scope() calls _PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg() to log the
PySequence_DelItem() failure.
* compiler_unit_check() uses _PyMem_IsPtrFreed().
* compiler_make_closure(): remove "(reftype == FREE)" comment since
reftype can also be LOCAL or GLOBAL_EXPLICIT.
When Python is built in debug mode (with C assertions), calling a
type slot like sq_length (__len__() in Python) now fails with a fatal
error if the slot succeeded with an exception set, or failed with no
exception set. The error message contains the slot, the type name,
and the current exception (if an exception is set).
* Check the result of all slots using _Py_CheckSlotResult().
* No longer pass op_name to ternary_op() in release mode.
* Replace operator with dunder Python method name in error messages.
For example, replace "*" with "__mul__".
* Fix compiler_exit_scope() when an exception is set.
* Fix bytearray.extend() when an exception is set: don't call
bytearray_setslice() with an exception set.
* Mark bytecodes at end of try-except as artificial.
* Make sure that the CFG is consistent throughout optimiization.
* Extend line-number propagation logic so that implicit returns after 'try-except' or 'with' have the correct line numbers.
* Update importlib
* Add test for frame.f_lineno with/without tracing.
* Make sure that frame.f_lineno is correct regardless of whether frame.f_trace is set.
* Update importlib
* Add NEWS
* Delete jump instructions that bypass empty blocks
* Add news entry
* Explicitly check for unconditional jump opcodes
Using the is_jump function results in the inclusion of instructions like
returns for which this optimization is not really valid. So, instead
explicitly check that the instruction is an unconditional jump.
* Handle conditional jumps, delete jumps gracefully
* Ensure b_nofallthrough and b_reachable are valid
* Add test for redundant jumps
* Regenerate importlib.h and edit Misc/ACKS
* Fix bad whitespace
Reduce memory footprint and improve performance of loading modules having many func annotations.

These functions are considered not safe because they suppress all internal errors
and can return wrong result. PyDict_GetItemString and _PyDict_GetItemId can
also silence current exception in rare cases.
Remove no longer used _PyDict_GetItemId.
Add _PyDict_ContainsId and rename _PyDict_Contains into
_PyDict_Contains_KnownHash.
The hard part was making all the tests pass; there are some subtle issues here, because apparently the future import wasn't tested very thoroughly in previous Python versions.
For example, `inspect.signature()` returned type objects normally (except for forward references), but strings with the future import. We changed it to try and return type objects by calling `typing.get_type_hints()`, but fall back on returning strings if that function fails (which it may do if there are future references in the annotations that require passing in a specific namespace to resolve).
* Add new capability to the PEG parser to type variable assignments. For instance:
```
| a[asdl_stmt_seq*]=';'.small_stmt+ [';'] NEWLINE { a }
```
* Add new sequence types from the asdl definition (automatically generated)
* Make `asdl_seq` type a generic aliasing pointer type.
* Create a new `asdl_generic_seq` for the generic case using `void*`.
* The old `asdl_seq_GET`/`ast_seq_SET` macros now are typed.
* New `asdl_seq_GET_UNTYPED`/`ast_seq_SET_UNTYPED` macros for dealing with generic sequences.
* Changes all possible `asdl_seq` types to use specific versions everywhere.
This commit removes the old parser, the deprecated parser module, the old parser compatibility flags and environment variables and all associated support code and documentation.
Don't access PyInterpreterState.config member directly anymore, but
use new functions:
* _PyInterpreterState_GetConfig()
* _PyInterpreterState_SetConfig()
* _Py_GetConfig()
Do not apply AST-based optimizations if 'from __future__ import annotations' is used in order to
prevent information lost in the final version of the annotations.
* Remove the slice type.
* Make Slice a kind of the expr type instead of the slice type.
* Replace ExtSlice(slices) with Tuple(slices, Load()).
* Replace Index(value) with a value itself.
All non-terminal nodes in AST for expressions are now of the expr type.
The AST "Suite" node is no longer used and it can be removed from the ASDL definition and related structures (compiler, visitors, ...).

* Add DICT_UPDATE and DICT_MERGE bytecodes. Use them for ** unpacking.
* Remove BUILD_MAP_UNPACK and BUILD_MAP_UNPACK_WITH_CALL, as they are now unused.
* Update magic number for ** unpacking opcodes.
* Update dis.rst to incorporate new bytecodes.
* Add blurb entry.
* Add three new bytecodes: LIST_TO_TUPLE, LIST_EXTEND, SET_UPDATE. Use them to implement star unpacking expressions.
* Remove four bytecodes BUILD_LIST_UNPACK, BUILD_TUPLE_UNPACK, BUILD_SET_UNPACK and BUILD_TUPLE_UNPACK_WITH_CALL opcodes as they are now unused.
* Update magic number and dis.rst for new bytecodes.
Python-ast.h contains a macro named Yield that conflicts with the Yield macro
in Windows system headers. While Python-ast.h has an "undef Yield" directive
to prevent this, it means that Python-ast.h must be included before Windows
header files or we run into a re-declaration warning. In commit c96be811fa
an include for pycore_pystate.h was added which indirectly includes Windows
header files. In this commit we re-order the includes to fix this warning.
Break up COMPARE_OP into four logically distinct opcodes:
* COMPARE_OP for rich comparisons
* IS_OP for 'is' and 'is not' tests
* CONTAINS_OP for 'in' and 'is not' tests
* JUMP_IF_NOT_EXC_MATCH for checking exceptions in 'try-except' statements.
Remove BEGIN_FINALLY, END_FINALLY, CALL_FINALLY and POP_FINALLY bytecodes. Implement finally blocks by code duplication.
Reimplement frame.lineno setter using line numbers rather than bytecode offsets.
Add a new _PyCompilerFlags_INIT macro to initialize PyCompilerFlags
variables, rather than initializing cf_flags and cf_feature_version
explicitly in each variable.
When using the "=" debug functionality of f-strings, use another Constant node (or a merged constant node) instead of adding expr_text to the FormattedValue node.
Move the check for dead conditionals (if 0) to the peephole optimizer
and make sure that the code block is still compiled to report any
existing syntax errors within.
If a "=" is specified a the end of an f-string expression, the f-string will evaluate to the text of the expression, followed by '=', followed by the repr of the value of the expression.
This commit contains the implementation of PEP570: Python positional-only parameters.
* Update Grammar/Grammar with new typedarglist and varargslist
* Regenerate grammar files
* Update and regenerate AST related files
* Update code object
* Update marshal.c
* Update compiler and symtable
* Regenerate importlib files
* Update callable objects
* Implement positional-only args logic in ceval.c
* Regenerate frozen data
* Update standard library to account for positional-only args
* Add test file for positional-only args
* Update other test files to account for positional-only args
* Add News entry
* Update inspect module and related tests
This adds a `feature_version` flag to `ast.parse()` (documented) and `compile()` (hidden) that allow tweaking the parser to support older versions of the grammar. In particular if `feature_version` is 5 or 6, the hacks for the `async` and `await` keyword from PEP 492 are reinstated. (For 7 or higher, these are unconditionally treated as keywords, but they are still special tokens rather than `NAME` tokens that the parser driver recognizes.)
https://bugs.python.org/issue35975
* Add tokenization of :=
- Add token to Include/token.h. Add token to documentation in Doc/library/token.rst.
- Run `./python Lib/token.py` to regenerate Lib/token.py.
- Update Parser/tokenizer.c: add case to handle `:=`.
* Add initial usage of := in grammar.
* Update Python.asdl to match the grammar updates. Regenerated Include/Python-ast.h and Python/Python-ast.c
* Update AST and compiler files in Python/ast.c and Python/compile.c. Basic functionality, this isn't scoped properly
* Regenerate Lib/symbol.py using `./python Lib/symbol.py`
* Tests - Fix failing tests in test_parser.py due to changes in token numbers for internal representation
* Tests - Add simple test for := token
* Tests - Add simple tests for named expressions using expr and suite
* Tests - Update number of levels for nested expressions to prevent stack overflow
* Update symbol table to handle NamedExpr
* Update Grammar to allow assignment expressions in if statements.
Regenerate Python/graminit.c accordingly using `make regen-grammar`
* Tests - Add additional tests for named expressions in RoundtripLegalSyntaxTestCase, based on examples and information directly from PEP 572
Note: failing tests are currently commented out (4 out of 24 tests currently fail)
* Tests - Add temporary syntax test failure tests in test_parser.py
Note: There is an outstanding TODO for this -- syntax tests need to be
moved to a different file (presumably test_syntax.py), but this is
covering what needs to be tested at the moment, and it's more convenient
to run a single test for the time being
* Add support for allowing assignment expressions as function argument annotations. Uncomment tests for these cases because they all pass now!
* Tests - Move existing syntax tests out of test_parser.py and into test_named_expressions.py. Refactor syntax tests to use unittest
* Add TargetScopeError exception to extend SyntaxError
Note: This simply creates the TargetScopeError exception, it is not yet
used anywhere
* Tests - Update tests per PEP 572
Continue refactoring test suite:
The named expression test suite now checks for any invalid cases that
throw exceptions (no longer limited to SyntaxErrors), assignment tests
to ensure that variables are properly assigned, and scope tests to
ensure that variable availability and values are correct
Note:
- There are still tests that are marked to skip, as they are not yet
implemented
- There are approximately 300 lines of the PEP that have not yet been
addressed, though these may be deferred
* Documentation - Small updates to XXX/todo comments
- Remove XXX from child description in ast.c
- Add comment with number of previously supported nested expressions for
3.7.X in test_parser.py
* Fix assert in seq_for_testlist()
* Cleanup - Denote "Not implemented -- No keyword args" on failing test case. Fix PEP8 error for blank lines at beginning of test classes in test_parser.py
* Tests - Wrap all file opens in `with...as` to ensure files are closed
* WIP: handle f(a := 1)
* Tests and Cleanup - No longer skips keyword arg test. Keyword arg test now uses a simpler test case and does not rely on an external file. Remove print statements from ast.c
* Tests - Refactor last remaining test case that relied on on external file to use a simpler test case without the dependency
* Tests - Add better description of remaning skipped tests. Add test checking scope when using assignment expression in a function argument
* Tests - Add test for nested comprehension, testing value and scope. Fix variable name in skipped comprehension scope test
* Handle restriction of LHS for named expressions - can only assign to LHS of type NAME. Specifically, restrict assignment to tuples
This adds an alternative set_context specifically for named expressions,
set_namedexpr_context. Thus, context is now set differently for standard
assignment versus assignment for named expressions in order to handle
restrictions.
* Tests - Update negative test case for assigning to lambda to match new error message. Add negative test case for assigning to tuple
* Tests - Reorder test cases to group invalid syntax cases and named assignment target errors
* Tests - Update test case for named expression in function argument - check that result and variable are set correctly
* Todo - Add todo for TargetScopeError based on Guido's comment (2b3acd37bd (r30472562))
* Tests - Add named expression tests for assignment operator in function arguments
Note: One of two tests are skipped, as function arguments are currently treating
an assignment expression inside of parenthesis as one child, which does
not properly catch the named expression, nor does it count arguments
properly
* Add NamedStore to expr_context. Regenerate related code with `make regen-ast`
* Add usage of NamedStore to ast_for_named_expr in ast.c. Update occurances of checking for Store to also handle NamedStore where appropriate
* Add ste_comprehension to _symtable_entry to track if the namespace is a comprehension. Initialize ste_comprehension to 0. Set set_comprehension to 1 in symtable_handle_comprehension
* s/symtable_add_def/symtable_add_def_helper. Add symtable_add_def to handle grabbing st->st_cur and passing it to symtable_add_def_helper. This now allows us to call the original code from symtable_add_def by instead calling symtable_add_def_helper with a different ste.
* Refactor symtable_record_directive to take lineno and col_offset as arguments instead of stmt_ty. This allows symtable_record_directive to be used for stmt_ty and expr_ty
* Handle elevating scope for named expressions in comprehensions.
* Handle error for usage of named expression inside a class block
* Tests - No longer skip scope tests. Add additional scope tests
* Cleanup - Update error message for named expression within a comprehension within a class. Update comments. Add assert for symtable_extend_namedexpr_scope to validate that we always find at least a ModuleScope if we don't find a Class or FunctionScope
* Cleanup - Add missing case for NamedStore in expr_context_name. Remove unused var in set_namedexpr_content
* Refactor - Consolidate set_context and set_namedexpr_context to reduce duplicated code. Special cases for named expressions are handled by checking if ctx is NamedStore
* Cleanup - Add additional use cases for ast_for_namedexpr in usage comment. Fix multiple blank lines in test_named_expressions
* Tests - Remove unnecessary test case. Renumber test case function names
* Remove TargetScopeError for now. Will add back if needed
* Cleanup - Small comment nit for consistency
* Handle positional argument check with named expression
* Add TargetScopeError exception definition. Add documentation for TargetScopeError in c-api docs. Throw TargetScopeError instead of SyntaxError when using a named expression in a comprehension within a class scope
* Increase stack size for parser by 200. This is a minimal change (approx. 5kb) and should not have an impact on any systems. Update parser test to allow 99 nested levels again
* Add TargetScopeError to exception_hierarchy.txt for test_baseexception.py_
* Tests - Major update for named expression tests, both in test_named_expressions and test_parser
- Add test for TargetScopeError
- Add tests for named expressions in comprehension scope and edge cases
- Add tests for named expressions in function arguments (declarations
and call sites)
- Reorganize tests to group them more logically
* Cleanup - Remove unnecessary comment
* Cleanup - Comment nitpicks
* Explicitly disallow assignment expressions to a name inside parentheses, e.g.: ((x) := 0)
- Add check for LHS types to detect a parenthesis then a name (see note)
- Add test for this scenario
- Update tests for changed error message for named assignment to a tuple
(also, see note)
Note: This caused issues with the previous error handling for named assignment
to a LHS that contained an expression, such as a tuple. Thus, the check
for the LHS of a named expression must be changed to be more specific if
we wish to maintain the previous error messages
* Cleanup - Wrap lines more strictly in test file
* Revert "Explicitly disallow assignment expressions to a name inside parentheses, e.g.: ((x) := 0)"
This reverts commit f1531400ca7d7a2d148830c8ac703f041740896d.
* Add NEWS.d entry
* Tests - Fix error in test_pickle.test_exceptions by adding TargetScopeError to list of exceptions
* Tests - Update error message tests to reflect improved messaging convention (s/can't/cannot)
* Remove cases that cannot be reached in compile.c. Small linting update.
* Update Grammar/Tokens to add COLONEQUAL. Regenerate all files
* Update TargetScopeError PRE_INIT and POST_INIT, as this was purposefully left out when fixing rebase conflicts
* Add NamedStore back and regenerate files
* Pass along line number and end col info for named expression
* Simplify News entry
* Fix compiler warning and explicity mark fallthrough
The majority of this PR is tediously passing `end_lineno` and `end_col_offset` everywhere. Here are non-trivial points:
* It is not possible to reconstruct end positions in AST "on the fly", some information is lost after an AST node is constructed, so we need two more attributes for every AST node `end_lineno` and `end_col_offset`.
* I add end position information to both CST and AST. Although it may be technically possible to avoid adding end positions to CST, the code becomes more cumbersome and less efficient.
* Since the end position is not known for non-leaf CST nodes while the next token is added, this requires a bit of extra care (see `_PyNode_FinalizeEndPos`). Unless I made some mistake, the algorithm should be linear.
* For statements, I "trim" the end position of suites to not include the terminal newlines and dedent (this seems to be what people would expect), for example in
```python
class C:
pass
pass
```
the end line and end column for the class definition is (2, 8).
* For `end_col_offset` I use the common Python convention for indexing, for example for `pass` the `end_col_offset` is 4 (not 3), so that `[0:4]` gives one the source code that corresponds to the node.
* I added a helper function `ast.get_source_segment()`, to get source text segment corresponding to a given AST node. It is also useful for testing.
An (inevitable) downside of this PR is that AST now takes almost 25% more memory. I think however it is probably justified by the benefits.
There are some same consts in a module. This commit merges them into
single instance. It reduces number of objects in memory after loading modules.

* Added new opcode END_ASYNC_FOR.
* Setting global StopAsyncIteration no longer breaks "async for" loops.
* Jumping into an "async for" loop is now disabled.
* Jumping out of an "async for" loop no longer corrupts the stack.
* Simplify the compiler.
* Document `from __future__ import annotations`
* Provide plumbing and tests for `from __future__ import annotations`
* Implement unparsing the AST back to string form
This is required for PEP 563 and as such only implements a part of the
unparsing process that covers expressions.
Previously, CO_NOFREE was set in the compiler, which meant
it could end up being set incorrectly when code objects
were created directly. Setting it in the constructor based
on freevars and cellvars ensures it is always accurate,
regardless of how the code object is defined.
* Add Py_UNREACHABLE() as an alias to abort().
* Use Py_UNREACHABLE() instead of assert(0)
* Convert more unreachable code to use Py_UNREACHABLE()
* Document Py_UNREACHABLE() and a few other macros.
* bpo-29463: Add docstring field to some AST nodes.
ClassDef, ModuleDef, FunctionDef, and AsyncFunctionDef has docstring
field for now. It was first statement of there body.
* fix document. thanks travis!

Special thanks to INADA Naoki for pushing the patch through
the last mile, Serhiy Storchaka for reviewing the code, and to
Victor Stinner for suggesting the idea (originally implemented
in the PyPy project).
Handling zero-argument super() in __init_subclass__ and
__set_name__ involved moving __class__ initialisation to
type.__new__. This requires cooperation from custom
metaclasses to ensure that the new __classcell__ entry
is passed along appropriately.
The initial implementation of that change resulted in abruptly
broken zero-argument super() support in metaclasses that didn't
adhere to the new requirements (such as Django's metaclass for
Model definitions).
The updated approach adopted here instead emits a deprecation
warning for those cases, and makes them work the same way they
did in Python 3.5.
This patch also improves the related class machinery documentation
to cover these details and to include more reader-friendly
cross-references and index entries.
* BUILD_TUPLE_UNPACK and BUILD_MAP_UNPACK_WITH_CALL no longer generated with
single tuple or dict.
* Restored more informative error messages for incorrect var-positional and
var-keyword arguments.
* Removed code duplications in _PyEval_EvalCodeWithName().
* Removed redundant runtime checks and parameters in _PyStack_AsDict().
* Added a workaround and enabled previously disabled test in test_traceback.
* Removed dead code from the dis module.
The __class__ cell used by zero-argument super() is now initialized
from type.__new__ rather than __build_class__, so class methods
relying on that will now work correctly when called from metaclass
methods during class creation.
Patch by Martin Teichmann.
Issue #27213: Rework CALL_FUNCTION* opcodes to produce shorter and more
efficient bytecode:
* CALL_FUNCTION now only accepts position arguments
* CALL_FUNCTION_KW accepts position arguments and keyword arguments, but keys
of keyword arguments are packed into a constant tuple.
* CALL_FUNCTION_EX is the most generic, it expects a tuple and a dict for
positional and keyword arguments.
CALL_FUNCTION_VAR and CALL_FUNCTION_VAR_KW opcodes have been removed.
2 tests of test_traceback are currently broken: skip test, the issue #28050 was
created to track the issue.
Patch by Demur Rumed, design by Serhiy Storchaka, reviewed by Serhiy Storchaka
and Victor Stinner.
In practice, bytecode instruction arguments are unsigned. Update the assertion
to make it more explicit that argument must be greater or equal than 0.
Rewrite also the comment.
The compile ignores constant statements and emit a SyntaxWarning warning.
Don't emit the warning for string statement because triple quoted string is a
common syntax for multiline comments.
Don't emit the warning on ellipis neither: 'def f(): ...' is a legit syntax for
abstract functions.
Changes:
* test_ast: ignore SyntaxWarning when compiling test statements. Modify
test_load_const() to use assignment expressions rather than constant
expression.
* test_code: add more kinds of constant statements, ignore SyntaxWarning when
testing that the compiler removes constant statements.
* test_grammar: ignore SyntaxWarning on the statement "1"
Issue #26146: Add a new kind of AST node: ast.Constant. It can be used by
external AST optimizers, but the compiler does not emit directly such node.
An optimizer can replace the following AST nodes with ast.Constant:
* ast.NameConstant: None, False, True
* ast.Num: int, float, complex
* ast.Str: str
* ast.Bytes: bytes
* ast.Tuple if items are constants too: tuple
* frozenset
Update code to accept ast.Constant instead of ast.Num and/or ast.Str:
* compiler
* docstrings
* ast.literal_eval()
* Tools/parser/unparse.py
Issue #25843: When compiling code, don't merge constants if they are equal but
have a different types. For example, "f1, f2 = lambda: 1, lambda: 1.0" is now
correctly compiled to two different functions: f1() returns 1 (int) and f2()
returns 1.0 (int), even if 1 and 1.0 are equal.
Add a new _PyCode_ConstantKey() private function.
Issue #26107: The format of the co_lnotab attribute of code objects changes to
support negative line number delta.
Changes:
* assemble_lnotab(): if line number delta is less than -128 or greater than
127, emit multiple (offset_delta, lineno_delta) in co_lnotab
* update functions decoding co_lnotab to use signed 8-bit integers
- dis.findlinestarts()
- PyCode_Addr2Line()
- _PyCode_CheckLineNumber()
- frame_setlineno()
* update lnotab_notes.txt
* increase importlib MAGIC_NUMBER to 3361
* document the change in What's New in Python 3.6
* cleanup also PyCode_Optimize() to use better variable names
This changes the main documentation, doc strings, source code comments, and a
couple error messages in the test suite. In some cases the word was removed
or edited some other way to fix the grammar.
Summary of changes:
1. Coroutines now have a distinct, separate from generators
type at the C level: PyGen_Type, and a new typedef PyCoroObject.
PyCoroObject shares the initial segment of struct layout with
PyGenObject, making it possible to reuse existing generators
machinery. The new type is exposed as 'types.CoroutineType'.
As a consequence of having a new type, CO_GENERATOR flag is
no longer applied to coroutines.
2. Having a separate type for coroutines made it possible to add
an __await__ method to the type. Although it is not used by the
interpreter (see details on that below), it makes coroutines
naturally (without using __instancecheck__) conform to
collections.abc.Coroutine and collections.abc.Awaitable ABCs.
[The __instancecheck__ is still used for generator-based
coroutines, as we don't want to add __await__ for generators.]
3. Add new opcode: GET_YIELD_FROM_ITER. The opcode is needed to
allow passing native coroutines to the YIELD_FROM opcode.
Before this change, 'yield from o' expression was compiled to:
(o)
GET_ITER
LOAD_CONST
YIELD_FROM
Now, we use GET_YIELD_FROM_ITER instead of GET_ITER.
The reason for adding a new opcode is that GET_ITER is used
in some contexts (such as 'for .. in' loops) where passing
a coroutine object is invalid.
4. Add two new introspection functions to the inspec module:
getcoroutinestate(c) and getcoroutinelocals(c).
5. inspect.iscoroutine(o) is updated to test if 'o' is a native
coroutine object. Before this commit it used abc.Coroutine,
and it was requested to update inspect.isgenerator(o) to use
abc.Generator; it was decided, however, that inspect functions
should really be tailored for checking for native types.
6. sys.set_coroutine_wrapper(w) API is updated to work with only
native coroutines. Since types.coroutine decorator supports
any type of callables now, it would be confusing that it does
