Brett Cannon 522267e784 Issue #15610: The PyImport_ImportModuleEx macro now calls
PyImport_ImportModuleLevel() with a 'level' of 0 instead of -1 as the
latter is no longer a valid value.

Also added a versionchanged note for PyImport_ImportModuleLevel() just
in case people don't make the connection between changes to
__import__() and this C function.

Brett Cannon f4dc9204cc Issue #15502: Finish bringing importlib.abc in line with the current
state of the import system. Also make importlib.invalidate_caches()
work with sys.meta_path instead of sys.path_importer_cache to
completely separate the path-based import system from the overall
import system.

Brett Cannon 9b000e7a68 Issue #15482: Properly document the default 'level' parameter for

To help explain why the -1 default value is typically not seen, a note
about how import statements only use values of >= 0 is also noted.

Victor Stinner 62bb394729 Close #13072: Restore code before the PEP 393 for the array module
'u' format of the array module uses again Py_UNICODE type for backward
compatibility with Python 3.2.

The only change from Python 3.2 is that PyUnicode_AsUnicode() result is now
checked for NULL value.

Brett Cannon a6473f9cfd Issues #15169, #14599: Make PyImport_ExecCodeModuleWithPathnames() use
Lib/imp.py for imp.source_from_cache() instead of its own C version.

Also change PyImport_ExecCodeModuleObject() to not infer the source
path from the bytecode path like
PyImport_ExecCodeModuleWithPathnames() does. This makes the function
less magical.

This also has the side-effect of removing all uses of MAXPATHLEN in
Python/import.c which can cause failures on really long filenames.
