Added a note in the `subprocess` docs that recommend using `shlex.quote` without mentioning that this is only applicable to Unix.
Also added a warning straight into the `shlex` docs since it only says "for simple syntaxes resembling that of the Unix shell" and says using `quote` plugs the security hole without mentioning this important caveat.
* bpo-35168: Documentation about shlex.punctuation_chars now states that it should be set in __init__.py
* bpo-35168: Convert shlex.punctuation_chars to read-only property
* Add NEWS.d entry
This function used to live as pipes.quote, where it was undocumented but
used anyway. (An alias still exists for backward compatibility.) The
tests have been moved as is, but the code of the function was changed to
use a regex instead of a loop with string comparisons (at Ian Bicking’s
suggestion). I’m terrible at regexes, so any feedback is welcome.
