* bpo-29136: Add TLS 1.3 support
TLS 1.3 introduces a new, distinct set of cipher suites. The TLS 1.3
cipher suites don't overlap with cipher suites from TLS 1.2 and earlier.
Since Python sets its own set of permitted ciphers, TLS 1.3 handshake
will fail as soon as OpenSSL 1.1.1 is released. Let's enable the common
AES-GCM and ChaCha20 suites.
Additionally the flag OP_NO_TLSv1_3 is added. It defaults to 0 (no op) with
OpenSSL prior to 1.1.1. This allows applications to opt-out from TLS 1.3
now.

* bpo-31339: Rewrite time.asctime() and time.ctime()
Backport and adapt the _asctime() function from the master branch to
not depend on the implementation of asctime() and ctime() from the
external C library. This change fixes a bug when Python is run using
the musl C library.
* bound checks for time.asctime()
* bound checks for time.strftime()
* bpo-27448: Work around a gc.disable race condition in subprocess.
This works around a gc.isenabled/gc.disable race condition in the 2.7
subprocess module by using a lock for the critical section. It'll
prevent multiple simultaneous subprocess launches from winding up with
gc remaining disabled but it can't fix the ultimate problem: gc enable
and disable is a global setting and a hack.
Users are *strongly encouraged* to use subprocess32 from PyPI instead
of the 2.7 standard library subprocess module. Mixing threads with
subprocess is a recipie for disaster otherwise even with "fixes" to
ameliorate common issues like this.
* Add a blurb!
The ssl and hashlib modules now call OPENSSL_add_all_algorithms_noconf() on
OpenSSL < 1.1.0. The function detects CPU features and enables optimizations
on some CPU architectures such as POWER8. Patch is based on research from
Gustavo Serra Scalet.

The Windows build now depends on Python 3.6 to fetch externals, but it
will be downloaded via NuGet (which is downloaded via PowerShell) if it
is not available via `py -3.6`. This means the only thing that must be
installed on a modern Windows box to do a full build of CPython with all
extensions is Visual Studio.
Cherry-picked from 51599e2bdd, parts of 40a23e8899, parts of 68d663cf85, d5cd21d75a, and possibly others that I've missed.
Also:
* Rename db -> bsddb for disambiguity
* Update sqlite3 to 3.14.2.0 since it's the version we use on 3.x, and it's simpler to just use it than to also upload the old version to cpython-source-deps
* Add PCbuild/*.ilk to .gitignore
[2.7] bpo-10746: Fix ctypes PEP 3118 type codes for c_long, c_bool, c_int (GH-31)
Ctypes currently produces wrong pep3118 type codes for several types.
E.g. memoryview(ctypes.c_long()).format gives "<l" on 64-bit platforms,
but it should be "<q" instead for sizeof(c_long) == 8
The problem is that the '<>' endian specification in the struct syntax
also turns on the "standard size" mode, which makes type characters have
a platform-independent meaning, which does not match with the codes used
internally in ctypes. The struct module format syntax also does not
allow specifying native-size non-native-endian items.
This commit adds a converter function that maps the internal ctypes
codes to appropriate struct module standard-size codes in the pep3118
format strings. The tests are modified to check for this..

OpenSSL 1.1.0 to 1.1.0e aborted the handshake when server and client
could not agree on a protocol using ALPN. OpenSSL 1.1.0f changed that.
The most recent version now behaves like OpenSSL 1.0.2 again. The ALPN
callback can pretend to not been set.

If history-length is set in .inputrc, and the history file is double the
history size (or more), history_get(N) returns NULL, and python
segfaults. Fix that by checking for NULL return value.
It seems that the root cause is incorrect handling of bigger history in
readline, but Python should not segfault even if readline returns
unexpected value.
This issue affects only GNU readline. When using libedit emulation
system history size option does not work.
This is a backport of the actual fix from master without the test, since
the test depends on new run_pty() helper which is not available in 2.7.

CPython workflow is changing! We're going to start using "blurb"
to manage Misc/NEWS entries:
https://github.com/python/core-workflow
(This will be a big win for release managers, honest.)
This checkin simply populates the "Misc/NEWS.d" subdirectory tree
so that people can start putting their news entries in there.
No other changes (yet).
