Zachary Ware a4b7a7548c Issue #3158: doctest can now find doctests in functions and methods
written in C.

As a part of this, a few doctests have been added to the builtins module
(on hex(), oct(), and bin()), a doctest has been fixed (hopefully on all
platforms) on float, and test_builtins now runs doctests in builtins.

Nick Coghlan 9c1aed8f94 Close #7475: Restore binary & text transform codecs
The codecs themselves were restored in Python 3.2, this
completes the restoration by adding back the convenience
aliases.

These aliases were originally left out due to confusing
errors when attempting to use them with the text encoding
specific convenience methods. Python 3.4 includes several
improvements to those errors, thus permitting the aliases
to be restored as well.

Andrew Kuchling 7a4e2d1751 Wording changes to pathlib docs.
Only possibly-controversial change: joinpath() was described as:

  "Calling this method is equivalent to indexing the path with each of
  the *other* arguments in turn."

'Indexing' is an odd word to use, because you can't subscript Path or
PurePath objects, so I changed it to "combining".

Nick Coghlan 90b8e7d2bc Close #19378: address flaws in the new dis module APIs
- confusing line_offset parameter -> first_line parameter
- systematically test and fix new file parameter
- remove redundant Bytecode.show_info() API
- rename Bytecode.display_code() to Bytecode.dis() and have it
  return the multi-line string rather than printing it directly
- eliminated some not-so-helpful helpers from the bytecode_helper
  test support module

Also fixed a longstanding defect (worked around in the test suite)
where lines emitted by the dis module could include trailing white
space. That no longer happens, allowing the formatting tests to be
simplified to use plain string comparisons.

R David Murray bd90d09dd0 #18678: Correct names of spwd struct members.
The old names (sp_nam and sp_pwd) are kept for backward compatibility.  Since
this is a long standing bug that hasn't caused any real-world problems, I'm
not backporting it.  However, it is worth fixing because the corrected names
match the documentation, and more importantly now match the C struct, just
like the other struct members.

Brett Cannon f6901c8baa Issue #19410: Put back in special-casing of '' for
importlib.machinery.FileFinder.

While originally moved to stop special-casing '' as PathFinder farther
up the typical call chain now uses the cwd in the instance of '', it
was deemed an unnecessary risk to breaking subclasses of FileFinder to
take the special-casing out.

Brett Cannon 27e27f7ee1 Issue #18416: Have importlib.machinery.PathFinder treat '' as the cwd
and stop importlib.machinery.FileFinder treating '' as '.'.

Previous PathFinder transformed '' into '.' which led to __file__ for
modules imported from the cwd to always be relative paths. This meant
the values of the attribute were wrong as soon as the cwd changed.
This change now means that as long as the site module is run (which
makes all entries in sys.path absolute) then all values for __file__
will also be absolute unless it's for __main__ when specified by file
path in a relative way (modules imported by runpy will have an
absolute path).

Now that PathFinder is no longer treating '' as '.' it only makes
sense for FileFinder to stop doing so as well. Now no transformation
is performed for the directory given to the __init__ method.

Thanks to Madison May for the initial patch.

Ethan Furman 63c141cacd Close #19030: inspect.getmembers and inspect.classify_class_attrs
Order of search is now:
  1. Try getattr
  2. If that throws an exception, check __dict__ directly
  3. If still not found, walk the mro looking for the eldest class that has
     the attribute (e.g. things returned by __getattr__)
  4. If none of that works (e.g. due to a buggy __dir__, __getattr__, etc.
     method or missing __slot__ attribute), ignore the attribute entirely.
