gh-91838: Use HTTPS links in docs for resources which redirect to HTTPS (GH-95527)
If an HTTP link is redirected to a same looking HTTPS link, the latter can
be used directly without changes in readability and behavior.
It protects from a men-in-the-middle attack.

This change does not affect Python examples.

gh-74696: Do not change the current working directory in shutil.make_archive() if possible (GH-93160)
It is no longer changed when create a zip or tar archive.

It is still changed for custom archivers registered with shutil.register_archive_format()
if root_dir is not None.

bpo-42174: fallback to sane values if the columns or lines are 0 in get_terminal_size (GH-29046)
I considered only falling back when both were 0, but that still seems
wrong, and the highly popular rich[1] library does it this way, so I
thought we should probably inherit that behavior.

[doc] Fix erroneous backslashes in signatures and names (GH-23658)
The issue being resolved is shown in the 3.10 docs (if you select docs for older versions you won't see a visual glitch).

The newer sphinx version that produces the 3.10 docs doesn't treat the backslash to escape things in some situations it previously did.

Maxwell A McKinnon cf57cabef8 bpo-32689: Updates shutil.move to allow for Path objects to be used as source arg (GH-15326)
Important work originally done by @emilyemorehouse two years ago and nearly ready to go in.

This bug has affected many people and in some cases has been a dealbreaker to the adoption of the otherwise wonderful pathlib and PEP519. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33625931/copy-file-with-pathlib-in-python.

This adds the outstanding test request from that PR @vstinner (https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/5393).

Test fails without the change, passes with it, along with every other test in test_shutil.

Some variants were experimented with to make the one line change and the most performant one was picked.

# Performance Considerations
Is it considered poor form to get rid of _basename altogether and make use of pathlib in the move function? I'm not sure if the idea is for all these modules to strictly avoid circular dependencies. They are already using os.path which is just as much a citizen in 3.8 as pathlib right?

e.g.

`real_dst = os.path.join(dst, _basename(src))`
becomes
`real_dst = Path(dst) / Path(src).name`

I've looked around and familiarized myself, and I now think importing pathlib here is fine. My only remaining concern is that of performance.

Here's the performance difference for this step. 

```
In [46]: %timeit real_dst = os.path.join("a/b/c", _basename('b/'))
2.71 µs ± 62.6 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100000 loops each)

In [47]: %timeit real_dst = Path("a/b/c") / Path('b/').name
12.4 µs ± 65.3 ns per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100000 loops each)
```

Is 10us significant or insignificant compared to the least expensive operation this function will do? I don't know. Let's find out.

```
In [55]: %timeit os.rename('/tmp/a/a.txt', '/tmp/a/b.txt'); os.rename('/tmp/a/b.txt', '/tmp/a/a.txt')
124 µs ± 2.18 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 10000 loops each)
```
62us to rename. 10us seems significant enough that we wouldn't want to favor the Path sugar suggestion. 16% speed decrease from adding the 10us.

What do people think? I was hoping to get to use pathlib.Path here, but I suspect for this low level move, it should be as fast as possible, and 16% is not worth one line of sugary code to me.

bpo-36103: change default buffer size of shutil.copyfileobj() (GH-12115)
It is changed from 16KiB to 64KiB.  The previous default value
is used since 1990.

coreutils chose 128 KiB as minimum buffer size for block device I/O.

But shutil.copyfileobj() can be used for non block devices.
So I choose more conservative value.

As my quick benchmark, performance difference between 64KiB and
128 KiB is up to ~5%.  On the other hand, performance difference
between 32 KiB and 64 KiB can be more than 10% when file is fully
buffered.

This is why 64 KiB is rational value.

...as an extra safety measure: in case src/dst are "exotic" files (non
regular or living on a network fs etc.) we better fail on open() instead
of copyfile(3) as we're not quite sure what's gonna happen in that
case.
