Align the multiprocessing shared memory docs with Diatáxis's
recommendations for references.
- use a parameter list for the SharedMemory.__init__() argument spec
- use the imperative mode
- use versionadded, not versionchanged, for added parameters
- reflow touched lines according to SemBr
- add :class: and :mod: markups where needed
- fix incorrect escaping of a star in ShareableList arg spec
- mark up parameters with stars: *val*
- mark up list of built-in types using list markup
- remove unneeded parentheses from :meth: markups
If *trackfd* is False, the file descriptor specified by *fileno*
will not be duplicated.

`PyComplex_RealAsDouble()`/`PyComplex_ImagAsDouble` now try to convert
an object to a `complex` instance using its `__complex__()` method
before falling back to the ``__float__()`` method.
PyComplex_ImagAsDouble() also will not silently return 0.0 for
non-complex types anymore. Instead we try to call PyFloat_AsDouble()
and return 0.0 only if this call is successful.
On Windows, `os.path.isabs()` now returns `False` when given a path that
starts with exactly one (back)slash. This is more compatible with other
functions in `os.path`, and with Microsoft's own documentation.
Also adjust `pathlib.PureWindowsPath.is_absolute()` to call
`ntpath.isabs()`, which corrects its handling of partial UNC/device paths
like `//foo`.

The MagicMock documentation mentions magic methods several times without
actually pointing to the term in the glossary. This can be helpful for
people to fully understand what those magic methods are.
Make zipfile.ZipInfo.compress_level public.
A property is used to retain the behavior of the ._compresslevel.
People constructing zipfile.ZipInfo instances to pass into existing APIs to control per-file compression levels already treat this as public, there was never a reason for it not to be.
I used the more modern name compress_level instead of compresslevel as the keyword argument on other ZipFile APIs is called to be consistent with compress_type and a general long term preference of not runningwordstogether without a separator in names.
On Windows, set _O_NOINHERIT flag on file descriptors
created by os.pipe() and io.WindowsConsoleIO.
Add test_pipe_spawnl() to test_os.

Previously the C implementation of pickle.Pickler and pickle.Unpickler
classes did not have such methods and they could only be used if
they were overloaded in subclasses or set as instance attributes.
Fixed calling super().persistent_id() and super().persistent_load() in
subclasses of the C implementation of pickle.Pickler and pickle.Unpickler
classes. It no longer causes an infinite recursion.
It can be used to set the location of a .python_history file
