* `PyFrame_FastToLocalsWithError` and `PyFrame_LocalsToFast` are no longer called during profile and tracing.

* Make accesses to a frame's `f_locals` safe from C code, not relying on calls to `PyFrame_FastToLocals` or `PyFrame_LocalsToFast`.
* Document new `PyFrame_GetLocals` C-API function.
The goal here is to reduce potential confusion between
`assert_type(val, type)` and `assert isinstance(val, typ)`.
The former is meant to ask a type checker to confirm a fact, the latter
is meant to tell a type checker a fact. The behaviour of the latter more
closely resembles what I'd expect from the prior phrasing of
"assert [something] to the type checker".
After a long deliberation we ended up feeling that the message argument for Future.cancel(), added in 3.9, was a bad idea, so we're deprecating it in 3.11 and plan to remove it in 3.13.
People are testing those blocs with the default
inline_comment_prefixes of None, leading to a:
configparser.InterpolationSyntaxError: '$' must be followed by '$' or '{', found: '$ sign ($ is the only character that needs to be escaped)'
* Add the metadata_encoding parameter in the zipfile.ZipFile constructor.
* Add the --metadata-encoding option in the zipfile CLI.

Clarifies a versionchanged note on crc32 & adler32 docs that the workaround is only needed for Python 2 and earlier.
Also cleans up an unnecessary intermediate variable in the implementation.

Define *posix_venv* and *nt_venv* sysconfig installation schemes
to be used for bootstrapping new virtual environments.
Add *venv* sysconfig installation scheme to get the appropriate one of the above.
The schemes are identical to the pre-existing
*posix_prefix* and *nt* install schemes.
The venv module now uses the *venv* scheme to create new virtual environments
instead of hardcoding the paths depending only on the platform. Downstream
Python distributors customizing the *posix_prefix* or *nt* install
scheme in a way that is not compatible with the install scheme used in
virtual environments are encouraged not to customize the *venv* schemes.
When Python itself runs in a virtual environment,
sysconfig.get_default_scheme and
sysconfig.get_preferred_scheme with `key="prefix"` returns
*venv*.
Add new functions to pack and unpack C double (serialize and
deserialize):
* PyFloat_Pack2(), PyFloat_Pack4(), PyFloat_Pack8()
* PyFloat_Unpack2(), PyFloat_Unpack4(), PyFloat_Unpack8()
Document these functions and add unit tests.
Rename private functions and move them from the internal C API
to the public C API:
* _PyFloat_Pack2() => PyFloat_Pack2()
* _PyFloat_Pack4() => PyFloat_Pack4()
* _PyFloat_Pack8() => PyFloat_Pack8()
* _PyFloat_Unpack2() => PyFloat_Unpack2()
* _PyFloat_Unpack4() => PyFloat_Unpack4()
* _PyFloat_Unpack8() => PyFloat_Unpack8()
Replace the "unsigned char*" type with "char*" which is more common
and easy to use.
