Éric Araujo e5eec7e198 Move xml.etree higher and xml.parsers.expat lower in the markup ToC.
I assume that most users looking at this page are looking for a library
to process XML, not a low-level parser.  First proposed in #11379.

Georg Brandl 09a7c72cad Merge from 3.1: Issue #13703: add a way to randomize the hash values of basic types (str, bytes, datetime)
in order to make algorithmic complexity attacks on (e.g.) web apps much more complicated.

The environment variable PYTHONHASHSEED and the new command line flag -R control this
behavior.

line options: -o/--output-dir, -W/--write-unchanged-files and --add-suffix.

Feature backports into stable release branches for 2to3 are allowed by
a special exemption:

Brian Curtin 10dda6e029 Add a hint that CSD == Service Pack.
People searcing for the way to get a "service pack" will never find that we
provide it here, and people that find this function won't know what CSD is
until they run the function. On top of this, they won't know what the value
means unless they really have a service pack installed.

CSD, or Customer Service Diagnostics, is apparently no longer used, and was
rarely used term at that. Most references to it online are from
universities making Windows 2000 and XP service packs available to students.
