sys._base_executable is now always defined on all platforms, and can be overridden through configuration.
Also adds test.support.PythonSymlink to encapsulate platform-specific logic for symlinking sys.executable
As noted by @eryksun in [1] and [2], using _cleanup and _active(in
__del__) is not necessary on Windows, since:

This patch simply defines `subprocess._active` as `None`, for which we already
have the proper logic in place in `subprocess.Popen.__del__`, that prevents it
from trying to append the process to the `_active`. This patch also defines
`subprocess._cleanup` as a noop for Windows.

On Windows, test.pythoninfo now checks if support for long paths is
enabled using ntdll.RtlAreLongPathsEnabled() function.

When libc_ver() is called with an executable, the
os.confstr('CS_GNU_LIBC_VERSION') fast-path cannot be taken. Modify
platform.platform() to call libc_ver() without executable, instead of
calling libc_ver(sys.executable), since sys.executable is already the
default value.
* Fix typo in supports_file2file_sendfile(); ensure that dst is
removed
* Fix test_copytree_custom_copy_function(): remove dst tree.
Use support.rmtree() rather than shutil.rmtree() to remove
temporary directories: support tries harder.
* patched string index out of range error in get_word function of _header_value_parser.py and created tests in test__header_value_parser.py for CFWS.
* Raise HeaderParseError instead of continuing when parsing a word.
Fix test_wsgiref.testEnviron() to no longer depend on the environment
variables (don't fail if "X" variable is set).
testEnviron() now overrides os.environ to get a deterministic
environment. Test full TestHandler.environ content: not only a few
selected variables.
Remove the undocumented sys.callstats() function. Since Python 3.7,
it was deprecated and always returned None. It required a special
build option CALL_PROFILE which was already removed in Python 3.7.
The os.getcwdb() function now uses the UTF-8 encoding on Windows,
rather than the ANSI code page: see PEP 529 for the rationale. The
function is no longer deprecated on Windows.
os.getcwd() and os.getcwdb() now detect integer overflow on memory
allocations. On Unix, these functions properly report MemoryError on
memory allocation failure.
The sqlite3 module now raises TypeError, rather than ValueError, if
operation argument type is not str: execute(), executemany() and
calling a connection.
In development mode and in debug build, encoding and errors arguments
are now checked on string encoding and decoding operations. Examples:
open(), str.encode() and bytes.decode().
By default, for best performances, the errors argument is only
checked at the first encoding/decoding error, and the encoding
argument is sometimes ignored for empty strings.
* bpo-33972: Fix EmailMessage.iter_attachments raising AttributeError.
When certain malformed messages have content-type set to 'mulitpart/*' but
still have a single part body, iter_attachments can raise AttributeError. This
patch fixes it by returning a None value instead when the body is single part.
Python now gets the absolute path of the script filename specified on
the command line (ex: "python3 script.py"): the __file__ attribute of
the __main__ module, sys.argv[0] and sys.path[0] become an absolute
path, rather than a relative path.
* Add _Py_isabs() and _Py_abspath() functions.
* _PyConfig_Read() now tries to get the absolute path of
run_filename, but keeps the relative path if _Py_abspath() fails.
* Reimplement os._getfullpathname() using _Py_abspath().
* Use _Py_isabs() in getpath.c.
* The UTF-8 incremental decoders fails now fast if encounter
a sequence that can't be handled by the error handler.
* The UTF-16 incremental decoders with the surrogatepass error
handler decodes now a lone low surrogate with final=False.
Remove sys.getcheckinterval() and sys.setcheckinterval() functions.
They were deprecated since Python 3.2. Use sys.getswitchinterval()
and sys.setswitchinterval() instead.
Remove also check_interval field of the PyInterpreterState structure.
