Fix locale.LC_CTYPE documentation to no longer mention string.lower() et al. Those functions were removed in Python 3.0:
https://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html#deprecated-string-functions
Also, fix a comment in logging about locale-specific behavior of `str.lower()`.

Remove the locale.format() function, deprecated in Python
3.7: use locale.format_string() instead.
Remove TestFormatPatternArg test case: it is irrelevant for
locale.format_string() which accepts complex formats.
The second parameter (named `func`) has been present since the `locale`
module was introduced in eef1d4e8b1, but has never been documented.
This commit updates the documentation for `locale.atof` to clarify the
behavior of the function and how the `func` parameter is used.

The locale.getdefaultlocale() function is deprecated and will be
removed in Python 3.13. Use locale.setlocale(),
locale.getpreferredencoding(False) and locale.getlocale() functions
instead.
Enhance the documentation of the Python startup, filesystem encoding
and error handling, locale encoding. Add a new "Python UTF-8 Mode"
section.
* Add "locale encoding" and "filesystem encoding and error handler"
to the glossary
* Remove documentation from Include/cpython/initconfig.h: move it to
Doc/c-api/init_config.rst.
* Doc/c-api/init_config.rst:
* Document command line options and environment variables
* Document default values.
* Add a new "Python UTF-8 Mode" section in Doc/library/os.rst.
* Add warnings to Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() docs.
* Document how Python selects the filesystem encoding and error
handler at a single place: PyConfig.filesystem_encoding and
PyConfig.filesystem_errors.
* PyConfig: move orig_argv member at the right place.
locale.localeconv() now sets temporarily the LC_CTYPE locale to the
LC_MONETARY locale if the two locales are different and monetary
strings are non-ASCII. This temporary change affects other threads.
Changes:
* locale.localeconv() can now set LC_CTYPE to LC_MONETARY to decode
monetary fields.
* Add LocaleInfo.grouping_buffer: copy localeconv() grouping string
since it can be replaced anytime if a different thread calls
localeconv().
* _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() now requires a "struct lconv *"
structure, so locale.localeconv() now longer calls localeconv()
twice. Moreover, the function now requires all arguments to be
non-NULL.
* Rename STATIC_LOCALE_INFO_INIT to LocaleInfo_STATIC_INIT.
* Move _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() definition from fileutils.h
to pycore_fileutils.h. pycore_fileutils.h now includes locale.h.
* The _locale module is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE defined.
* Add _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() function: decode decimal_point and
thousands_sep fields of localeconv() from the LC_NUMERIC encoding,
rather than decoding from the LC_CTYPE encoding.
* Modify locale.localeconv() and "n" formatter of str.format() (for
int, float and complex to use _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric()
internally.
* Add -X utf8 command line option, PYTHONUTF8 environment variable
and a new sys.flags.utf8_mode flag.
* If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the
UTF-8 mode.
* Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls
_winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page
* locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8
mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by
default in this mode.
* Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding
in the UTF-8 Mode.
* Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8
* Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is
enabled.
* Add test_utf8mode.py.
* _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to
return also the length (number of wide characters).
* pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now
always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value
is greater than the old value.
kB (*kilo* byte) unit means 1000 bytes, whereas KiB ("kibibyte")
means 1024 bytes. KB was misused: replace kB or KB with KiB when
appropriate.
Same change for MB and GB which become MiB and GiB.
Change the output of Tools/iobench/iobench.py.
Round also the size of the documentation from 5.5 MB to 5 MiB.
Add the 'monetary' parameter to format_string so that all
uses of format can be converted to format_string. Adjust
the documentation accordingly, and add a deprecation
warning when format is used.

The docs for httplib.HTTPConnection.putheader() have claimed for quite a while
that their could be an arbitrary number of values passed in. Turns out the code
did not match that. The code now matches the docs.
