As of Python 3.6 **kwargs are ordered, thus, remove the paragraph stating that
ordering is undefined and change snippet to remove the unecessary sorted call.
* Add sentence mentioning guaranteed output order of kwargs
* Fixed bpo-29565: Corrected ctypes passing of large structs by value.
Added code and test to check that when a structure passed by value
is large enough to need to be passed by reference, a copy of the
original structure is passed. The callee updates the passed-in value,
and the test verifies that the caller's copy is unchanged. A similar
change was also added to the test added for bpo-20160 (that test was
passing, but the changes should guard against regressions).
* Reverted unintended whitespace changes.
``local.getlocale(locale.LC_CTYPE)`` and
``locale.getpreferredencoding(False)`` may give different answers
in some cases (such as the ``en_IN`` locale).
``re.LOCALE`` uses the latter, so update the test case to match.
* bpo-29026: Clarity documentation of time.time
Clarify the documentation of time.time by more
precisely defining what is meant by "seconds since
the epoch" on most platforms. Additionally explain
how gmtime and localtime may be used to extract
calendar components and convert to a more common
date format.
* bpo-29026: Minor improvements for time.time doc
* bpo-29026: Consistency fixes for time.time doc

rstlint.py run by "make check" doesn't support Python 2.
"make venv" runs "$(PYTHON) -m venv", whereas Python 2 doens't
provide the venv module: it's a module of Python 3 standard library.
- Return to always building the docs, it's a relatively cheap operation,
the check had a bug, and the docs build depends on other files.
- Add `make suspicious`
- Do all three checks as one `make check suspicious html` invocation for
earliest possible exit in case of issues.
If someone pushes a branch to python/cpython and then creates a PR
it will cause Travis to run tests needlessly, once for the PR and
once for the push. This will limit the branches that Travis will
run tests for to the `master` branch and branches that match the regex
`^\d\.\d$`.
This will have the effect that if someone purposely makes another branch
they won't get tests to run, but in that rare case they can adjust this
themselves.
"appears to not work in all cases" does not inspire confidence in this
module. I can find no context for what bug this was referencing so it
should be removed.
These include spelling/grammar fixes, removing some outdated prose,
updating some superseded prose, and adding/cleaning up some links.
Also rewraps the entire file at 79 columns.
Badges are small images which gives the status of the Travis CI and
the coverage percentage of Codecode. It helps to check the status of
the Travis CI and to get the link to Travis CI.

Currently, http://buildbot.python.org/all/buildslaves/ware-docs
buildbot is only run as post-commit. For example, bpo-29521 (PR#41)
introduced two warnings, unnotified by the Travis CI docs job.
Modify the docs job to run toosl/rstlint.py.
Fix also the two minor warnings which causes the buildbot slave to
fail.
Much of bpo-29521 was fixed in parallel with commit
e7ffb99 . This cleans up the rest.
Apply parallel change to Doc/make.bat to read

I don't have a Windows system on which to observe the warning,
but it should be necessary.
The warning:
.../workspace/cpython_github/Doc/faq/windows.rst:303:
WARNING: unknown option: -t
In the Windows FAQ, `How do I keep editors from inserting tabs
into my Python source?`, contained a reference to a Python -t
option. In Python 2.x, this caused Python to issue warnings
about lines with mixed spaces and tabs, but as of Python 3.6
it does nothing.
Per discussion at http://bugs.python.org/issue29387, take
their wording. Python [3] raises an IndentationError or
TabError. Tabnanny is now a module.
