This follows GNU gzip, which defaults to using 0 as the mtime
for compressing stdin, where no file mtime is involved.
This makes the output of gzip.compress() deterministic by default,
greatly helping reproducible builds.

This matches the output behavior in 3.10 and earlier; the optimization in 3.11 allowed the zlib library's "os" value to be filled in instead in the circumstance when mtime was 0. this keeps things consistent.
* Add name and mode attributes for compressed and archived file-like objects
in modules bz2, lzma, tarfile and zipfile.
* Change the value of the mode attribute of GzipFile from integer (1 or 2)
to string ('rb' or 'wb').
* Change the value of the mode attribute of ZipExtFile from 'r' to 'rb'.
* Increase coverage for compressed file-like objects initialized with a
file name, an open file object, a file object opened by file
descriptor, and a file-like object without name and mode attributes
(io.BytesIO)
* Increase coverage for name, fileno(), mode, readable(), writable(),
seekable() in different modes and states
* No longer skip tests with bytes names
* Test objects implementing the path protocol, not just pathlib.Path.
Fix test_gzip's failure under WASI, which does not have zlib, by using
test.support.import_helper.import_module to import zlib. (gzip
unconditionally imports zlib, so this does not cause any new skips.)
Instead of explicitly enumerate test classes for run_unittest()
use the unittest ability to discover tests. This also makes these
tests discoverable and runnable with unittest.
load_tests() can be used for dynamic generating tests and adding
doctests. setUpModule(), tearDownModule() and addModuleCleanup()
can be used for running code before and after all module tests.
Exit code is now 1 instead of 0. A message is printed to stderr instead of stdout. This is
the proper behaviour for a tool that can be used in scripts.
As described in RFC 1952, section 2.3.1, the XFL (eXtra FLags) byte of a
gzip member header should indicate whether the DEFLATE algorithm was
tuned for speed or compression ratio. Prior to this patch, archives
emitted by the `gzip` module always indicated maximum compression.
Without setting mtime, time.time() will be used as the timestamp which will
end up in the compressed data and each invocation of the compress() function
will vary over time.
The underlying zlib library stores sizes in “unsigned int”. The corresponding
Python parameters are all sizes of buffers filled in by zlib, so it is okay
to reduce higher values to the UINT_MAX internal cap. OverflowError is still
raised for sizes that do not fit in Py_ssize_t.
Sizes are now limited to Py_ssize_t rather than unsigned long, because Python
byte strings cannot be larger than Py_ssize_t. Previously this could result
in a SystemError on 32-bit platforms.
This resolves a regression in the gzip module when reading more than UINT_MAX
or LONG_MAX bytes in one call, introduced by revision 62723172412c.
GzipFile, BZ2File or LZMAFile. This defeats denial of service attacks
using compressed bombs (i.e. compressed payloads which decompress to a huge
size).

benchmark files in order to prevent using a random system python, and in
source files of modules which don't provide command line interface. Fixed
shebang lines in the unittestgui and checkpip scripts.
