========================
bpo-28603: Fix a TypeError that caused a shell restart when printing
a traceback that includes an exception that is unhashable.
Patch by Zane Bitter.
bpo-13802: Use non-Latin characters in the Font settings sample.
Even if one selects a font that defines a limited subset of the unicode
Basic Multilingual Plane, tcl/tk will use other fonts that define a
character. The expanded example give users of non-Latin characters
a better idea of what they might see in the shell and editors.
To make room for the expanded sample, frames on the Font tab are
re-arranged. The Font/Tabs help explains a bit about the additions.

bpo-31460: Simplify the API of IDLE's Module Browser.
Passing a widget instead of an flist with a root widget opens the
option of creating a browser frame that is only part of a window.
Passing a full file name instead of pieces assumed to come from a
.py file opens the possibility of browsing python files that do not
end in .py.
bpo-31649: Make _htest and _utest parameters keyword-only.
These are used to adjust code for human and unit tests.
bpo-31459: Rename module browser from Class Browser to Module Browser.
The original module-level class and method browser became a module
browser, with the addition of module-level functions, years ago.
Nested classes and functions were added yesterday. For back-
compatibility, the virtual event <<open-class-browser>>, which
appears on the Keys tab of the Settings dialog, is not changed.
Patch by Cheryl Sabella.
bpo-1612262: Module browser now shows nested classes and functions.
Original patches for code and tests by Guilherme Polo and
Cheryl Sabella, respectively. Revisions by Terry Jan Reedy.
bpo-31500: Tk's default fonts now are scaled on HiDPI displays.
This affects all dialogs. Patch by Serhiy Storchaka.
bpo-31493: Fix code context update and font update timers.
Canceling timers prevents a warning message when test_idle completes.
