The locale.getdefaultlocale() function is deprecated and will be
removed in Python 3.13. Use locale.setlocale(),
locale.getpreferredencoding(False) and locale.getlocale() functions
instead.
* Add a new _locale._get_locale_encoding() function to get the
current locale encoding.
* Modify locale.getpreferredencoding() to use it.
* Remove the _bootlocale module.
* Add -X utf8 command line option, PYTHONUTF8 environment variable
and a new sys.flags.utf8_mode flag.
* If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the
UTF-8 mode.
* Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls
_winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page
* locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8
mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by
default in this mode.
* Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding
in the UTF-8 Mode.
* Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8
* Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is
enabled.
* Add test_utf8mode.py.
* _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to
return also the length (number of wide characters).
* pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now
always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value
is greater than the old value.
Add the 'monetary' parameter to format_string so that all
uses of format can be converted to format_string. Adjust
the documentation accordingly, and add a deprecation
warning when format is used.
On MacOSX and OpenBSD (and possibly other BSDs) "en_US.UTF-8" is a valid locale
while "en_US.UTF8" is not. As the former works on Linux as well it is better
to normalize to that value.

Issue #6656: fix locale.format_string to handle escaped percents and mappings.
Refactors format_string. Includes tests for the two problems noted in
the issue, but as far as I can see there are no other tests that confirm
that format_string conforms to normal % formatting rules.
