When Python is built in debug mode (if the Py_REF_DEBUG macro is
defined), the Py_INCREF() and Py_DECREF() function are now always
implemented as opaque functions to avoid leaking implementation
details like the "_Py_RefTotal" variable or the
_Py_DecRefTotal_DO_NOT_USE_THIS() function.
* Remove _Py_IncRefTotal_DO_NOT_USE_THIS() and
_Py_DecRefTotal_DO_NOT_USE_THIS() from the stable ABI.
* Remove _Py_NegativeRefcount() from limited C API.
Remove functions in the C API:
* PyEval_AcquireLock()
* PyEval_ReleaseLock()
* PyEval_InitThreads()
* PyEval_ThreadsInitialized()
But keep these functions in the stable ABI.
Mention "make regen-limited-abi" in "make regen-all".
Remove the following old functions to configure the Python
initialization, deprecated in Python 3.11:
* PySys_AddWarnOptionUnicode()
* PySys_AddWarnOption()
* PySys_AddXOption()
* PySys_HasWarnOptions()
* PySys_SetArgvEx()
* PySys_SetArgv()
* PySys_SetPath()
* Py_SetPath()
* Py_SetProgramName()
* Py_SetPythonHome()
* Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding()
* _Py_SetProgramFullPath()
Most of these functions are kept in the stable ABI, except:
* Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding()
* _Py_SetProgramFullPath()
Update Doc/extending/embedding.rst and Doc/extending/extending.rst to
use the new PyConfig API.
_testembed.c:
* check_stdio_details() now sets stdio_encoding and stdio_errors
of PyConfig.
* Add definitions of functions removed from the API but kept in the
stable ABI.
* test_init_from_config() and test_init_read_set() now use
PyConfig_SetString() instead of PyConfig_SetBytesString().
Remove _Py_ClearStandardStreamEncoding() internal function.
Deprecate the old Py_UNICODE and PY_UNICODE_TYPE types in the C API:
use wchar_t instead.
Replace Py_UNICODE with wchar_t in multiple C files.

`PurePath.match()` now handles the `**` wildcard as in `Path.glob()`, i.e. it matches any number of path segments.
We now compile a `re.Pattern` object for the entire pattern. This is made more difficult by `fnmatch` not treating directory separators as special when evaluating wildcards (`*`, `?`, etc), and so we arrange the path parts onto separate *lines* in a string, and ensure we don't set `re.DOTALL`.

Add a keyword-only *follow_symlinks* parameter to `pathlib.Path.glob()` and`rglob()`.
When *follow_symlinks* is `None` (the default), these methods follow symlinks except when evaluating "`**`" wildcards. When set to true or false, symlinks are always or never followed, respectively.
* Remove the Lib/test/imghdrdata/ directory.
* Copy 5 pictures (gif, png, ppm, pgm, xbm) from removed
Lib/test/imghdrdata/ to a new Lib/test/tkinterdata/ directory.
* Update Sphinx from 4.5 to 6.2 in Doc/requirements.txt.
* socket_helper.transient_internet() no longer imports nntplib to
catch nntplib.NNTPTemporaryError.
* ssltests.py no longer runs test_nntplib.
* "make quicktest" no longer runs test_nntplib.
* WASM: remove nntplib from OMIT_NETWORKING_FILES.
* Remove mentions to nntplib in the email documentation.
In Python 3.8 and prior, `pathlib.Path.__exit__()` marked a path as closed;
some subsequent attempts to perform I/O would raise an IOError. This
functionality was never documented, and had the effect of making `Path`
objects mutable, contrary to PEP 428. In Python 3.9 we made `__exit__()` a
no-op, and in 3.11 `__enter__()` began raising deprecation warnings. Here
we remove both methods.
