Robert Collins 933430ab69 Issue #17401: document closefd in io.FileIO docs and add to repr
closefd was documented in the open docs but not the matching FileIO
class documented. Further, closefd, part of the core state for the
object was not shown.

In review it was noted that the open docs are a little confusing about
the interaction between closefd and paths, so tweaked them at the same
time.

Brett Cannon f9f0458961 merge emphasized discouragement of overriding __import__ 2013-08-23 11:00:04 -04:00
Brett Cannon f5ebd26403 Emphasize that people should not override __import__.
With importlib getting used more and more, changing __import__ will
not work as well as people used to hope as it will potentially bypass
importers, etc. It also will not work with importlib.import_module()
as it uses "importlib.__import__" (i.e. importlib's implementation of
import) directly and not builtins.__import__.
