* Specify the default encoding: write 'utf-8' instead of
sys.getdefaultencoding(), because the default encoding is now constant
* Specify the default errors value
the locale encoding. If the LANG (and LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE) environment variable
is not set, the locale encoding is ISO-8859-1, whereas most programs (including
Python) expect UTF-8. Python already uses UTF-8 for the filesystem encoding and
to encode command line arguments on this OS.
_Py_char2wchar() callers usually need the result size in characters. Since it's
trivial to compute it in _Py_char2wchar() (O(1) whereas wcslen() is O(n)), add
an option to get it.
* PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault(), PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefaultAndSize() and
PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault() use the locale encoding instead of UTF-8 if
Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding is NULL
* redecode_filenames() functions and _Py_code_object_list (issue #9630)
are no more needed: remove them
Redecode the filenames of:
- all modules: __file__ and __path__ attributes
- all code objects: co_filename attribute
- sys.path
- sys.meta_path
- sys.executable
- sys.path_importer_cache (keys)
Keep weak references to all code objects until initfsencoding() is called, to
be able to redecode co_filename attribute of all code objects.
It's a ParseTuple converter: decode bytes objects to unicode using
PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefaultAndSize(); str objects are output as-is.
* Don't specify surrogateescape error handler in the comments nor the
documentation, but PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefaultAndSize() and
PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault() because these functions use strict error handler
for the mbcs encoding (on Windows).
* Remove PyUnicode_FSConverter() comment in unicodeobject.c to avoid
inconsistency with unicodeobject.h.
1) #8271: when a byte sequence is invalid, only the start byte and all the
valid continuation bytes are now replaced by U+FFFD, instead of replacing
the number of bytes specified by the start byte.
See http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode5.2.0/ch03.pdf (pages 94-95);
2) 5- and 6-bytes-long UTF-8 sequences are now considered invalid (no changes
in behavior);
3) Change the error messages "unexpected code byte" to "invalid start byte"
and "invalid data" to "invalid continuation byte";
4) Add an extensive set of tests in test_unicode;
5) Fix test_codeccallbacks because it was failing after this change.
mode raises unicode errors. The encoder only supports "strict" and "replace"
error handlers, the decoder only supports "strict" and "ignore" error handlers.

Issue #8941: decoding big endian UTF-32 data in UCS-2 builds could crash
the interpreter with characters outside the Basic Multilingual Plane
(higher than 0x10000).
