For threads, and for multiprocessing, it's always been the case that ``args=list`` works fine when passed to ``Process()`` or ``Thread()``, and such code is common in the wild. But, according to the docs, only a tuple can be used. This brings the docs into synch with reality.

It fixes the "Text File Busy" OSError when using 'rmtree' on a
windows-managed filesystem in via the VirtualBox shared folder
(and possible other scenarios like a windows-managed network file
system).
The `module` parameter carries semantic information about the forward ref.
Forward refs are different if they refer to different module even if they
have the same name. This affects the `__eq__`, `__repr__` and `__hash__` methods.

Added new internal functions to compute mod without also computing the quotient.
The loops can be leaner then, which leads to modestly but reliably faster execution in contexts that know they don't need the quotient.
Code by Jeremiah Vivian (Pascual).
This addresses [bpo-45554]() by expanding the `exitcode` documentation to also describe what `exitcode` will be in cases of normal termination, `sys.exit()` called, and on uncaught exceptions.

The doctest module raised an error if a docstring contained an example that
attempted to access a classmethod property. (Stacking '@classmethod' on top of
`@property` has been supported since Python 3.9; see
https://docs.python.org/3/howto/descriptor.html#class-methods.)

On non-Linux POSIX platforms, like FreeBSD or macOS,
the FD used to read a forked PTY may signal its exit not
by raising an error but by sending empty data to the read
syscall. This case wasn't handled, leading to hanging
`pty.spawn` calls.

This documents in the tutorial docs the behavior of a finally clause in
case it should re-raise an exception but contains a
return/break/continue statement.
Accessing the following attributes will now fire PEP 578 style audit hooks as ("object.__getattr__", obj, name):
* PyTracebackObject: tb_frame
* PyFrameObject: f_code
* PyGenObject: gi_code, gi_frame
* PyCoroObject: cr_code, cr_frame
* PyAsyncGenObject: ag_code, ag_frame
Add an AUDIT_READ attribute flag aliased to READ_RESTRICTED.
Update obsolete flag documentation.
Many servers in the cloud environment require SNI to be used during the
SSL/TLS handshake, therefore it is not possible to fetch their certificates
using the ssl.get_server_certificate interface.
This change adds an additional optional hostname argument that can be used to
set the SNI. Note that it is intentionally a separate argument instead of
using the host part of the addr tuple, because one might want to explicitly
fetch the default certificate or fetch a certificate from a specific IP
address with the specified SNI hostname. A separate argument also works better
for backwards compatibility.

bpo-43420: Implement standard transformations in + - * / that can often reduce the size of intermediate integers needed. For rationals with large components, this can yield dramatic speed improvements, but for small rationals can run 10-20% slower, due to increased fixed overheads in the longer-winded code. If those slowdowns turn out to be a problem, see the PR discussion for low-level implementation tricks that could cut other fixed overheads.

Flag members are now divided by one-bit verses multi-bit, with multi-bit being treated as aliases. Iterating over a flag only returns the contained single-bit flags.
Iterating, repr(), and str() show members in definition order.
When constructing combined-member flags, any extra integer values are either discarded (CONFORM), turned into ints (EJECT) or treated as errors (STRICT). Flag classes can specify which of those three behaviors is desired:
>>> class Test(Flag, boundary=CONFORM):
... ONE = 1
... TWO = 2
...
>>> Test(5)
<Test.ONE: 1>
Besides the three above behaviors, there is also KEEP, which should not be used unless necessary -- for example, _convert_ specifies KEEP as there are flag sets in the stdlib that are incomplete and/or inconsistent (e.g. ssl.Options). KEEP will, as the name suggests, keep all bits; however, iterating over a flag with extra bits will only return the canonical flags contained, not the extra bits.
Iteration is now in member definition order. If member definition order
matches increasing value order, then a more efficient method of flag
decomposition is used; otherwise, sort() is called on the results of
that method to get definition order.
``re`` module:
repr() has been modified to support as closely as possible its previous
output; the big difference is that inverted flags cannot be output as
before because the inversion operation now always returns the comparable
positive result; i.e.
re.A|re.I|re.M|re.S is ~(re.L|re.U|re.S|re.T|re.DEBUG)
in both of the above terms, the ``value`` is 282.
re's tests have been updated to reflect the modifications to repr().
In Python 2, it was possible to use `except` with a nested tuple, and occasionally natural. For example, `zope.formlib.interfaces.InputErrors` is a tuple of several exception classes, and one might reasonably think to do something like this:
try:
self.getInputValue()
return True
except (InputErrors, SomethingElse):
return False
As of Python 3.0, this raises `TypeError: catching classes that do not inherit from BaseException is not allowed` instead: one must instead either break it up into multiple `except` clauses or flatten the tuple. However, the reference documentation was never updated to match this new restriction. Make it clear that the definition is no longer recursive.

* Delete jump instructions that bypass empty blocks
* Add news entry
* Explicitly check for unconditional jump opcodes
Using the is_jump function results in the inclusion of instructions like
returns for which this optimization is not really valid. So, instead
explicitly check that the instruction is an unconditional jump.
* Handle conditional jumps, delete jumps gracefully
* Ensure b_nofallthrough and b_reachable are valid
* Add test for redundant jumps
* Regenerate importlib.h and edit Misc/ACKS
* Fix bad whitespace
This commit also fixes up some of the overlapping documentation changed
in bpo-35498, which added support for indexing with slices.
Fixes bpo-21041.

Added slice support to the `pathlib.Path.parents` sequence. For a `Path` `p`, slices of `p.parents` should return the same thing as slices of `tuple(p.parents)`.
Literal equality no longer depends on the order of arguments.
Fix issue related to `typing.Literal` caching by adding `typed` parameter to `typing._tp_cache` function.
Add deduplication of `typing.Literal` arguments.
