Change the default multiprocessing start method away from fork to forkserver or spawn on the remaining platforms where it was fork. See the issue for context. This makes the default far more thread safe (other than for people spawning threads at import time... - don't do that!).

To recap: the objective is to make starred expressions valid in `subscription`,
which is used for generics: `Generic[...]`, `list[...]`, etc.
What _is_ gramatically valid in such contexts? Seemingly any of the following.
(At least, none of the following throw `SyntaxError` in a 3.12.3 REPL.)
Generic[x]
Generic[*x]
Generic[*x, y]
Generic[y, *x]
Generic[x := 1]
Generic[x := 1, y := 2]
So introducting
flexible_expression: expression | assignment_expression | starred_item
end then switching `subscription` to use `flexible_expression` sorts that.
But then we need to field `yield` - for which any of the following are
apparently valid:
yield x
yield x,
yield x, y
yield *x,
yield *x, *y
Introducing a separate `yield_list` is the simplest way I've been figure out to
do this - separating out the special case of `starred_item ,`.

Using a standard library class makes this test difficult to maintain
as other tests and other parts of the stdlib may create subclasses,
which may still be alive when this test runs depending on GC timing.

Closes#123242. The real criterion is that the attribute does not
exist on heap types, but I don't think we should discuss heap vs.
static types in the language reference.

Make `versionchanged:: next`` expand to current (unreleased) version.
When a new CPython release is cut, the release manager will replace
all such occurences of "next" with the just-released version.
(See the issue for release-tools and devguide PRs.)

- If setting `_fields_` fails, e.g. with AttributeError, don't set the attribute in `__dict__`
- Document the “finalization” behaviour
- Beef up tests: add `getattr`, test Union as well as Structure
- Put common functionality in a common function

The code changes for warning related to `__package__` landed in Python 3.12. `__cached__` doesn't have any changes as it isn't used but only set by the import system.
The term `Immutable` in the `sequence` entry of the glossary is used incorrectly, in fact dicts accepts hashable keys, which is not the same as immutable.
We don't want to add another API, since the recipe is straightforward and rarely needed.
The advantage is that we could backport this to the earliest Python version that has taskgroups (3.11, alas in security mode already, so we'll just do 3.12 and 3.13).
Update TOML description to include version number
There is some movement, currently blocked, that would update the TOML spec to 1.1.0; this would include breaking changes to what characters are allowed. Thus, it is worthwhile for the library page to be clear which version is implemented here.
