* bpo-42382: In importlib.metadata, `EntryPoint` objects now expose a `.dist` object referencing the `Distribution` when constructed from a `Distribution`.
Also, sync importlib_metadata 3.3:
- Add support for package discovery under package normalization rules.
- The object returned by `metadata()` now has a formally-defined protocol called `PackageMetadata` with declared support for the `.get_all()` method.
* Add blurb
* Remove latent footnote.
Added --disable-test-modules option to the configure script:
don't build nor install test modules.

The descriptions of the `codes` and `messages` dictionaries in
`xml.parsers.expat.errors` were swapped, and this commit swaps them
back. For example, `codes` maps string descriptions of errors to numeric
error codes, not the other way around.
When the modern text= spelling of the universal_newlines= parameter was added
for Python 3.7, check_output's special case around input=None was overlooked.
So it behaved differently with universal_newlines=True vs text=True. This
reconciles the behavior to be consistent and adds a test to guarantee it.
Also clarifies the existing check_output documentation.

In Python 2, it was possible to use `except` with a nested tuple, and occasionally natural. For example, `zope.formlib.interfaces.InputErrors` is a tuple of several exception classes, and one might reasonably think to do something like this:
try:
self.getInputValue()
return True
except (InputErrors, SomethingElse):
return False
As of Python 3.0, this raises `TypeError: catching classes that do not inherit from BaseException is not allowed` instead: one must instead either break it up into multiple `except` clauses or flatten the tuple. However, the reference documentation was never updated to match this new restriction. Make it clear that the definition is no longer recursive.

zipimport's _unmarshal_code swallows import errors and then _get_module_code doesn't know the cause of the error, and returns the generic, and sometimes incorrect, 'could not find...'.

Up until now, the `multiprocessing.pool.ThreadPool` class has gone
undocumented, despite being a public class in multiprocessing that is
included in `multiprocessing.pool.__all__`.
The issue being resolved is shown in the 3.10 docs (if you select docs for older versions you won't see a visual glitch).
The newer sphinx version that produces the 3.10 docs doesn't treat the backslash to escape things in some situations it previously did.
