This PR replaces the old note mentioning that `typing` is a provisional module with a new one mentioning types are not enforced at runtime. I am not sure if there was any official announcement about making `typing` non-provisional, but _de-facto_ no new features were added during Python 3.7, and no backwards incompatible changes were made except for few small things that were considered bugs.

This is a restructuring of the datetime documentation to hopefully make
them more user-friendly and approachable to new users without losing any
of the detail.
Changes include:
- Creating dedicated subsections for some concepts such as:
- "Constants"
- "Naive vs Aware"
- "Determining if an Object is Aware"
- Give 'naive vs aware' its own subsection
- Give 'constants' their own subsection
- Overhauling the strftime-strptime section by:
- Breaking it into logical, linkable, and digestable parts
- Adding a high-level comparison table
- Moving the technical detail to bottom: readers come to this
section primarily to remind themselves to things:
- How do I write the format code for X?
- strptime/strftime: which one is which again?
- Touching up fromisoformat + isoformat sections by:
- Revising fromisoformat + isoformat for date, time, and
datetime
- Adding basic examples
- Enforcing consistency about putting formats (i.e. ``HH:MM``)
in double backticks. This was previously done in some places
but not all
- Putting long 'supported formats', on their own line to improve
readability
- Moving the 'seealso' section to the top and add a link to dateutil
Rationale: This doesn't really belong nested under the
'constants' section. Let readers know right away that
datetime is one of several related tools.
- Moving common features of several types into one place:
Previously, each type went out of its way to note separately
that it was hashable and picklable. These can be brought
into one single place that is more prominent.
- Reducing some verbose explanations to improve readability
- Breaking up long paragraphs into digestable chunks
- Displaying longer "equivalent to" examples, as short code blocks
- Using the dot notation for datetime/time classes:
Use :class:`.time` and :class:`.datetime` rather than :class:`time` and
:class:`datetime`; otherwise, the generated links will route to the
respective modules, not classes.
- Rewording the tzinfo class description
The top paragraph should get straight to the point of telling the reader
what subclasses of tzinfo _do_. Previously, that was hidden in a later
paragraph.
- Adding a note on .today() versus .now()
- Rearranging and expanding example blocks, including:
- Moved long, multiline inline examples to standalone examples
- Simplified the example block for timedelta arithmetic:
- Broke the example into two logical sections:
1. normalization/parameter 'merging'
2. timedelta arithmetic
- Reduced the complexity of the some of the examples. Show
reasonable, real-world uses cases that are easy to follow
along with and progres in difficult slightly.
- Broke up the example sections for date and datetime sections by putting
the easy examples first, progressing to more esoteric situations and
breaking it up into logical sections based on what the methods are
doing at a high level.
- Simplified the KabulTz example:
- Put the class definition itself into a non-REPL block since there is
no interactive output involved there
- Briefly explained what's happening before launching into the code
- Broke the example section into visually separate chunks
- Various whitespace, formatting, style and grammar fixes including:
- Consistently using backctics for 'date_string' formats
- Consistently using one space after periods.
- Consistently using bold for vocab terms
- Consistently using italics when referring to params:
See https://devguide.python.org/documenting/GH-id4
- Using '::' to lead into code blocks
Per https://devguide.python.org/documenting/GH-source-code, this will
let the reader use the 'expand/collapse' top-right button for REPL
blocks to hide or show the prompt.
- Using consistent captialization schemes
- Removing use of the default role
- Put 'example' blocks in Markdown subsections
This is a combination of 66 commits.

* bpo-36260: Add pitfalls to zipfile module documentation
We saw vulnerability warning description (including zip bomb) in Doc/library/xml.rst file.
This gave us the idea of documentation improvement.
So, we moved a little bit forward :P
And the doc patch can be found (pr).
