* There were leaks if Py_tp_bases is used more than once or if some call is
failed before setting tp_bases.
* There was a crash if the bases argument or the Py_tp_bases slot is not a tuple.
* The documentation was not accurate.
send_signal() now swallows the exception if the process it thought was still alive winds up not to exist anymore (always a plausible race condition despite the checks).

* bpo-40791: Make compare_digest more constant-time.
The existing volatile `left`/`right` pointers guarantee that the reads will all occur, but does not guarantee that they will be _used_. So a compiler can still short-circuit the loop, saving e.g. the overhead of doing the xors and especially the overhead of the data dependency between `result` and the reads. That would change performance depending on where the first unequal byte occurs. This change removes that optimization.
(This is change #1 from https://bugs.python.org/issue40791 .)
By attempting to avoid backslashes in f-string expressions.
We also now proactively raise errors for some backslashes we can't
avoid while unparsing FormattedValues

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)`.
Use @staticmethod on methods using @classmethod but don't use their
cls parameter on the following classes:
* BuiltinImporter
* FrozenImporter
* WindowsRegistryFinder
* PathFinder
Leave methods using @_requires_builtin or @_requires_frozen unchanged,
since this decorator requires the wrapped method to have an extra parameter
(cls or self).
Simplify the importlib external bootstrap code:
importlib._bootstrap_external now uses regular imports to import
builtin modules. When it is imported, the builtin __import__()
function is already fully working and so can be used to import
builtin modules like sys.
Convert the _imp extension module to the multi-phase initialization
API (PEP 489).
* Add _PyImport_BootstrapImp() which fix a bootstrap issue: import
the _imp module before importlib is initialized.
* Add create_builtin() sub-function, used by _imp_create_builtin().
* Initialize PyInterpreterState.import_func earlier, in
pycore_init_builtins().
* Remove references to _PyImport_Cleanup(). This function has been
renamed to finalize_modules() and moved to pylifecycle.c.
This change partically reverts
commit ad3252bad9
and the commit fe2978b3b9.
Many third party C extension modules rely on the ability of using
Py_TYPE() to set an object type: "Py_TYPE(obj) = type;" or to set an
object type using: "Py_SIZE(obj) = size;".
Fix a race condition in "make regen-all" when make -jN option is used
to run jobs in parallel. The clinic.py script now only use atomic
write to write files. Moveover, generated files are now left
unchanged if the content does not change, to not change the file
modification time.
The "make regen-all" command runs "make clinic" and "make
regen-importlib" targets:
* "make regen-importlib" builds object files (ex: Modules/_weakref.o)
from source files (ex: Modules/_weakref.c) and clinic files (ex:
Modules/clinic/_weakref.c.h)
* "make clinic" always rewrites all clinic files
(ex: Modules/clinic/_weakref.c.h)
Since there is no dependency between "clinic" and "regen-importlib"
Makefile targets, these two targets can be run in parallel. Moreover,
half of clinic.py file writes are not atomic and so there is a race
condition when "make regen-all" runs jobs in parallel using make -jN
option (which can be passed in MAKEFLAGS environment variable).
Fix clinic.py to make all file writes atomic:
* Add write_file() function to ensure that all file writes are
atomic: write into a temporary file and then use os.replace().
* Moreover, write_file() doesn't recreate or modify the file if the
content does not change to avoid modifying the file modification
file.
* Update test_clinic to verify these assertions with a functional
test.
* Remove Clinic.force attribute which was no longer used, whereas
Clinic.verify remains useful.
