Victor Stinner 884d13a55f time.clock() now emits a DeprecationWarning (GH-4020)
bpo-31803: time.clock() and time.get_clock_info('clock') now emit a
DeprecationWarning warning.

Replace time.clock() with time.perf_counter() in tests and demos.

Remove also hasattr(time, 'monotonic') in test_time since time.monotonic()
is now always available since Python 3.5.

Eric Appelt 23557d59b8 bpo-29026: Clarify documentation of time.time (#34)
* bpo-29026: Clarity documentation of time.time

Clarify the documentation of time.time by more
precisely defining what is meant by "seconds since
the epoch" on most platforms. Additionally explain
how gmtime and localtime may be used to extract
calendar components and convert to a more common
date format.

* bpo-29026: Minor improvements for time.time doc

* bpo-29026: Consistency fixes for time.time doc

Victor Stinner 79d68f929d Issue #23646: If time.sleep() is interrupted by a signal, the sleep is now
retried with the recomputed delay, except if the signal handler raises an
exception (PEP 475).

Modify also test_signal to use a monotonic clock instead of the system clock.

Victor Stinner 2b89fdf7eb PEP 418: Rename adjusted attribute to adjustable in time.get_clock_info() result
Fix also its value on Windows and Linux according to its documentation:
"adjustable" indicates if the clock *can be* adjusted, not if it is or was
adjusted.

In most cases, it is not possible to indicate if a clock is or was adjusted.
