xml.etree: Remove the ElementTree.Element.copy() method of the pure
Python implementation, deprecated in Python 3.10, use the copy.copy()
function instead. The C implementation of xml.etree has no copy()
method, only a __copy__() method.
Suppress writing an XML declaration in open files in ElementTree.write()
with encoding='unicode' and xml_declaration=None.
If file patch is passed to ElementTree.write() with encoding='unicode',
always open a new file in UTF-8.
ElementTree method write() and function tostring() now use the text file's
encoding ("UTF-8" if not available) instead of locale encoding in XML
declaration when encoding="unicode" is specified.
Copying and pickling instances of subclasses of builtin types
bytearray, set, frozenset, collections.OrderedDict, collections.deque,
weakref.WeakSet, and datetime.tzinfo now copies and pickles instance attributes
implemented as slots.
Curly brackets were never allowed in namespace URIs
according to RFC 3986, and so-called namespace-validating
XML parsers have the right to reject them a invalid URIs.
libexpat >=2.4.5 has become strcter in that regard due to
related security issues; with ET.XML instantiating a
namespace-aware parser under the hood, this test has no
future in CPython.

* Work correctly if an additional fresh module imports other
additional fresh module which imports a blocked module.
* Raises ImportError if the specified module cannot be imported
while all additional fresh modules are successfully imported.
* Support blocking packages.
* Always restore the import state of fresh and blocked modules
and their submodules.
* Fix test_decimal and test_xml_etree which depended on an undesired
side effect of import_fresh_module().
* bpo-39011: Preserve line endings within attributes
Line endings within attributes were previously normalized to "\n" in Py3.7/3.8.
This patch removes that normalization, as line endings which were
replaced by entity numbers should be preserved in original form.
* bpo-20928: bring elementtree's XInclude support en-par with the implementation in lxml by adding support for recursive includes and a base-URL.
* bpo-20928: Support xincluding the same file multiple times, just not recursively.
* bpo-20928: Add 'max_depth' parameter to xinclude that limits the maximum recursion depth to 6 by default.
* Add news entry for updated ElementInclude support
* bpo-37399: Correctly attach tail text to the last element/comment/pi, even when comments or pis are discarded.
Also fixes the insertion of PIs when "insert_pis=True" is configured for a TreeBuilder.
* Implement C14N 2.0 as a new canonicalize() function in ElementTree.
Missing features:
- prefix renaming in XPath expressions (tag and attribute text is supported)
- preservation of original prefixes given redundant namespace declarations
* bpo-36673: Implement comment/PI parsing support for the TreeBuilder in ElementTree.
* bpo-36673: Rewrite the comment/PI factory handling for the TreeBuilder in "_elementtree" to make it use the same factories as the ElementTree module, and to make it explicit when the comments/PIs are inserted into the tree and when they are not (which is the default).
Add new keyword arguments "default_namespace" and "xml_declaration" to functions ET.tostring() and ET.tostringlist(), as known from ElementTree.write().
It is now guarantied that children of xml.etree.ElementTree.Element
are Elements (at least in C implementation). Previously methods
__setitem__(), __setstate__() and __deepcopy__() could be used for
adding non-Element children.
The SAX parser no longer processes general external entities by default
to increase security. Before, the parser created network connections
to fetch remote files or loaded local files from the file system for DTD
and entities.

* Fix multiple typos in code comments
* Add spacing in comments (test_logging.py, test_math.py)
* Fix spaces at the beginning of comments in test_logging.py
* Avoid calling "PyObject_GetAttrString()" (and potentially executing user code) with a live exception set.
* Ignore only AttributeError on attribute lookups in ElementTree.XMLParser() and propagate all other exceptions.
Element.getiterator() and the html parameter of XMLParser() were
deprecated only in the documentation (since Python 3.2 and 3.4 correspondintly).
Now using them emits a deprecation warning.
* Don’t need check_warnings any more.
