* "Return true/false" is replaced with "Return ``True``/``False``"
if the function actually returns a bool.
* Fixed formatting of some True and False literals (now in monospace).
* Replaced "True/False" with "true/false" if it can be not only bool.
* Replaced some 1/0 with True/False if it corresponds the code.
* "Returns <bool>" is replaced with "Return <bool>".
This is a wholesale reorganization and editing of the email documentation to
make the new API the standard one, and the old API the 'legacy' one. The
default is still the compat32 policy, for backward compatibility. We will
change that eventually.
This adds EmailMessage and, MIMEPart subclasses of Message
with new API methods, and a ContentManager class used by
the new methods. Also a new policy setting, content_manager.
Patch was reviewed by Stephen J. Turnbull and Serhiy Storchaka,
and reflects their feedback.
I will ideally add some examples of using the new API to the
documentation before the final release.
This was triggered by wanting to make the doctest in email.policy.rst pass;
as_bytes and __bytes__ are clearly useful now that we have BytesGenerator.
Also updated the Message docs to document the policy keyword that was
added in 3.3.
With the exception of the 'as_string' call in the policy docs.
That one is a separate issue.
Note that when building the docs sphinx is complaining about
.. testcleanup:: being an invalid directive. I don't know
why this is, as I'm following the sphinx docs...but fortunately
the action is to omit the text in the body, so the generated
documentation is correct.
Which also means that it is now producing *something* for any base64
payload, which is what leads to the couple of older test changes in
test_email. This is a slightly backward incompatible behavior change,
but the new behavior is so much more useful than the old (you can now
*reliably* detect errors, and any program that was detecting errors by
sniffing for a base64 return from get_payload(decode=True) and then doing
its own error-recovery decode will just get the error-recovery decode
right away). So this seems to me to be worth the small risk inherent
in this behavior change.
This patch also refactors the defect tests into a separate test file,
since they are no longer just parser tests.
This applies only when generating strings from non-RFC compliant binary
input; it makes the existing recoding behavior more consistent (ie:
now no data is lost when recoding).

#1078919: make add_header automatically do RFC2231 encoding when needed.
Also document the use of three-tuples if control of the charset
and language is desired.
........
The work on this is not 100% complete, but everything is present to
allow real-world testing of the code. The only remaining major todo
item is to (hopefully!) enhance the handling of non-ASCII bytes in headers
converted to unicode by RFC2047 encoding them rather than replacing them with
'?'s.
