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.

Nick Coghlan 7d270ee05d Issue #16129: Add `Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding`
This new pre-initialization API allows embedding
applications like Blender to force a particular
encoding and error handler for the standard IO streams.

Also refactors Modules/_testembed.c to let us start
testing multiple embedding scenarios.

R David Murray 3da240fd01 #18891: Complete new provisional email API.
This adds EmailMessage and, MIMEPart subclasses of Message
with new API methods, and a ContentManager class used by
the new methods.  Also a new policy setting, content_manager.

Patch was reviewed by Stephen J. Turnbull and Serhiy Storchaka,
and reflects their feedback.

I will ideally add some examples of using the new API to the
documentation before the final release.

Victor Stinner 2fe9bac4dc Close #16742: Fix misuse of memory allocations in PyOS_Readline()
The GIL must be held to call PyMem_Malloc(), whereas PyOS_Readline() releases
the GIL to read input.

The result of the C callback PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer must now be a string
allocated by PyMem_RawMalloc() or PyMem_RawRealloc() (or NULL if an error
occurred), instead of a string allocated by PyMem_Malloc() or PyMem_Realloc().

Fixing this issue was required to setup a hook on PyMem_Malloc(), for example
using the tracemalloc module.

PyOS_Readline() copies the result of PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer() into a new
buffer allocated by PyMem_Malloc(). So the public API of PyOS_Readline() does
not change.

Victor Stinner 6cf185dc06 Issue #18874: _PyObject_Malloc/Realloc/Free() now falls back on
_PyMem_RawMalloc/Realloc/Free, instead of _PyMem_Malloc/Realloc/Free.  So it
becomes possible to use the fast pymalloc allocator for the PYMEM_DOMAIN_MEM
domain (PyMem_Malloc/Realloc/Free functions).
