A backslash-character pair that is not a valid escape sequence now
generates a SyntaxWarning, instead of DeprecationWarning. For
example, re.compile("\d+\.\d+") now emits a SyntaxWarning ("\d" is an
invalid escape sequence), use raw strings for regular expression:
re.compile(r"\d+\.\d+"). In a future Python version, SyntaxError will
eventually be raised, instead of SyntaxWarning.
Octal escapes with value larger than 0o377 (ex: "\477"), deprecated
in Python 3.11, now produce a SyntaxWarning, instead of
DeprecationWarning. In a future Python version they will be
eventually a SyntaxError.
codecs.escape_decode() and codecs.unicode_escape_decode() are left
unchanged: they still emit DeprecationWarning.
* The parser only emits SyntaxWarning for Python 3.12 (feature
version), and still emits DeprecationWarning on older Python
versions.
* Fix SyntaxWarning by using raw strings in Tools/c-analyzer/ and
wasm_build.py.
Also:
* Expand the discussion into its own entry. (Even before this,
text on ``_`` was longet than the text on ``_*``.)
* Briefly note the other common convention for `_`: naming unused
variables.

This is a first edition, ready to go out with the implementation. We'll iterate during the rest of the period leading up to 3.10.0.

Use an unique identifier for the different grammars documented using
the Sphinx productionlist markup.
productionlist markups of the same grammar, like "expressions" or
"compound statements", use the same identifier "python-grammar".
DeprecationWarning will continue to be emitted for invalid escape
sequences in string and bytes literals just as it did in 3.7.
SyntaxWarning may be emitted in the future. But per mailing list
discussion, we don't yet know when because we haven't settled on how to
do so in a non-disruptive manner.

The f-string example for using datetime format specifier does not match the given output.
Changed the format from %b to %B so it matches the output of "January".
In lexical analysis reference documentation, the internal link to
the string literal concatenation section was written as`.. _string-catenation:`.
Changed that to `.. _string-concatenation:`.
async and await keywords has been merged into upstream, but they are
all missing in the lexical analysis docs. This change adds them to the
appropriate keywords section in documentation.
