The truncate() method of io.BufferedReader() should raise
UnsupportedOperation when it is called on a read-only
io.BufferedReader() instance.

gcc -Wcast-qual turns up a number of instances of casting away constness of pointers. Some of these can be safely modified, by either:
Adding the const to the type cast, as in:
- return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((unsigned char*)s, size);
+ return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((const unsigned char*)s, size);
or, Removing the cast entirely, because it's not necessary (but probably was at one time), as in:
- PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY((char *)filename, (char *)funcname, lineno);
+ PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY(filename, funcname, lineno);
These changes will not change code, but they will make it much easier to check for errors in consts
The bulk of this patch was generated automatically with:

new=PyObject_VectorcallDict
git grep -lwz $old | xargs -0 sed -i "s/\b$old\b/$new/g"
and then cleaned up:
- Revert changes to in docs & news
- Revert changes to backcompat defines in headers
- Nudge misaligned comments
When called on a closed object, readinto() segfaults on account
of a write to a freed buffer:
==220553== Process terminating with default action of signal 11 (SIGSEGV): dumping core
==220553== Access not within mapped region at address 0x2A
==220553== at 0x48408A0: memmove (vg_replace_strmem.c:1272)
==220553== by 0x58DB0C: _buffered_readinto_generic (bufferedio.c:972)
==220553== by 0x58DCBA: _io__Buffered_readinto_impl (bufferedio.c:1053)
==220553== by 0x58DCBA: _io__Buffered_readinto (bufferedio.c.h:253)
Reproducer:
reader = open ("/dev/zero", "rb")
_void = reader.read (42)
reader.close ()
reader.readinto (bytearray (42)) ### BANG!
The problem exists since 2012 when commit dc469454ec added code
to free the read buffer on close().

open(), io.open(), codecs.open() and fileinput.FileInput no longer
accept "U" ("universal newline") in the file mode. This flag was
deprecated since Python 3.3.
In ArgumentClinic, value "NULL" should now be used only for unrepresentable default values
(like in the optional third parameter of getattr). "None" should be used if None is accepted
as argument and passing None has the same effect as not passing the argument at all.
* Use the 'p' format unit instead of manually called PyObject_IsTrue().
* Pass boolean value instead 0/1 integers to functions that needs boolean.
* Convert some arguments to boolean only once.
In development mode and in debug build, encoding and errors arguments
are now checked on string encoding and decoding operations. Examples:
open(), str.encode() and bytes.decode().
By default, for best performances, the errors argument is only
checked at the first encoding/decoding error, and the encoding
argument is sometimes ignored for empty strings.
It is now allowed to add new fields at the end of the PyTypeObject struct without having to allocate a dedicated compatibility flag in tp_flags.
This will reduce the risk of running out of bits in the 32-bit tp_flags value.
In development mode (-X dev) and in debug build, the io.IOBase
destructor now logs close() exceptions. These exceptions are silent
by default in release mode.
The previous code hardcoded `SEEK_SET`, etc. While it's very unlikely
that these values will change, it's best to use the definitions to avoid
there being mismatches in behavior with the code in the future.

Use _PyArg_CheckPositional() and inlined code instead of
PyArg_UnpackTuple() and _PyArg_UnpackStack() if all parameters
are positional and use the "object" converter.
Fix invalid function cast warnings with gcc 8
for method conventions different from METH_NOARGS, METH_O and
METH_VARARGS in Argument Clinic generated code.
Two kind of mistakes:
1. Missed space. After concatenating there is no space between words.
2. Missed comma. Causes unintentional concatenating in a list of strings.
The accu.h header is no longer part of the Python C API: it has been
moved to the "internal" headers which are restricted to Python
itself.
Replace #include "accu.h" with #include "pycore_accu.h".
