gh-103921: Rename "type" header in argparse docs (#104654)
This allows :keyword:`type` to link to docs for the new `type`
statement (being written in gh-104642) instead of to this header
in the argparse docs.

gh-92446: Improve argparse choices docs; revert bad change to lzma docs (#94627)
Based on the definition of the collections.abc classes, it is more accurate to use "sequence" instead of "container" when describing argparse choices.

A previous attempt at fixing this in #92450 was mistaken; this PR reverts that change.

Fix typo in argparse docs. (GH-92691)
# Fix typo in argparse docs.

> Sometimes, when dealing with **a** particularly long argument list**s**, [...]

Mixture between plural and singular forms is incorrect. Use singular consistently since typically only a single argument list is employed. Change to:

> Sometimes, when dealing with a particularly long argument list, [...]

No issue was opened, since this is a trivial change.

Zac Hatfield-Dodds dffca9e925 bpo-26967: fix flag grouping with allow_abbrev=False (GH-14316)
The `allow_abbrev` option for ArgumentParser is documented and intended to disable support for unique prefixes of --options, which may sometimes be ambiguous due to deferred parsing.

However, the initial implementation also broke parsing of grouped short flags, such as `-ab` meaning `-a -b` (or `-a=b`).  Checking the argument for a leading `--` before rejecting it fixes this.

This was prompted by pytest-dev/pytest#5469, so a backport to at least 3.8 would be great 😄  
And this is my first PR to CPython, so please let me know if I've missed anything!
