[3.7] bpo-34589: Add -X coerce_c_locale option; C locale coercion off by default (GH-9379)
* bpo-34589: Make _PyCoreConfig.coerce_c_locale private (GH-9371)

_PyCoreConfig:

* Rename coerce_c_locale to _coerce_c_locale
* Rename coerce_c_locale_warn to _coerce_c_locale_warn

These fields are now private (name prefixed by "_").

(cherry picked from commit 188ebfa475)

* bpo-34589: C locale coercion off by default (GH-9073)

Py_Initialize() and Py_Main() cannot enable the C locale coercion
(PEP 538) anymore: it is always disabled. It can now only be enabled
by the Python program ("python3).

test_embed: get_filesystem_encoding() doesn't have to set PYTHONUTF8
nor PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE, these variables are already set in the
parent.

(cherry picked from commit 7a0791b699)

* bpo-34589: Add -X coerce_c_locale command line option (GH-9378)

Add a new -X coerce_c_locale command line option to control C locale
coercion (PEP 538).

bpo-33409: Clarify PEP 538/540 relationship (GH-7534)
While locale coercion and UTF-8 mode turned out to
be complementary ideas rather than competing ones,
it isn't immediately obvious why it's useful to
have both, or how they interact at runtime.

This updates both the Python 3.7 What's New doc
and the PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE and PYTHONUTF8
documentation in an attempt to clarify that
relationship:

- in the respective What's New sections, add a closing paragraph
  explaining which problem each one solves, and pointing to the
  other PEP's section for the specific aspects it relies on the other
  PEP to solve
- use "locale-aware mode" as a more descriptive term for the
  default non-UTF-8 mode
- improve wording conistenccy between the PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE
  and PYTHONUTF8 docs when they cover the same thing (mostly
  related to legacy locale detection and setting the standard
  stream error handler)
- improve the description of the locale coercion trigger conditions
  (including pointing out that setting LC_ALL turns off locale coercion)
- port the full description of the UTF-8 mode behaviour changes
  from PEP 540 into the PYTHONUTF8 documentation
- be explicit that PYTHONIOENCODING still overrides the settings
  for the standard streams
- mention concrete examples of things that do and don't get their
  text encoding assumptions adjusted by the two text encoding
  assumption override techniques

bpo-31975 (PEP 565): Show DeprecationWarning in __main__ (GH-4458)
- primary change is to add a new default filter entry for
  'default::DeprecationWarning:__main__'
- secondary change is an internal one to cope with plain
  strings in the warning module's internal filter list
  (this avoids the need to create a compiled regex object
  early on during interpreter startup)
- assorted documentation updates, including many more
  examples of configuring the warnings settings
- additional tests to ensure that both the pure Python and
  the C accelerated warnings modules have the expected
  default configuration

bpo-29240, bpo-32030: Py_Main() re-reads config if encoding changes (#4899)
bpo-29240, bpo-32030: If the encoding change (C locale coerced or
UTF-8 Mode changed), Py_Main() now reads again the configuration with
the new encoding.

Changes:

* Add _Py_UnixMain() called by main().
* Rename pymain_free_pymain() to pymain_clear_pymain(), it can now be
  called multipled times.
* Rename pymain_parse_cmdline_envvars() to pymain_read_conf().
* Py_Main() now clears orig_argc and orig_argv at exit.
* Remove argv_copy2, Py_Main() doesn't modify argv anymore. There is
  no need anymore to get two copies of the wchar_t** argv.
* _PyCoreConfig: add coerce_c_locale and coerce_c_locale_warn.
* Py_UTF8Mode is now initialized to -1.
* Locale coercion (PEP 538) now respects -I and -E options.

bpo-32329: Fix -R option for hash randomization (#4873)
bpo-32329, bpo-32030:

* The -R option now turns on hash randomization when the
  PYTHONHASHSEED environment variable is set to 0 Previously, the
  option was ignored.
* sys.flags.hash_randomization is now properly set to 0 when hash
  randomization is turned off by PYTHONHASHSEED=0.
* _PyCoreConfig_ReadEnv() now reads the PYTHONHASHSEED environment
  variable. _Py_HashRandomization_Init() now only apply the
  configuration, it doesn't read PYTHONHASHSEED anymore.

bpo-29240: PEP 540: Add a new UTF-8 Mode (#855)
* Add -X utf8 command line option, PYTHONUTF8 environment variable
  and a new sys.flags.utf8_mode flag.
* If the LC_CTYPE locale is "C" at startup: enable automatically the
  UTF-8 mode.
* Add _winapi.GetACP(). encodings._alias_mbcs() now calls
  _winapi.GetACP() to get the ANSI code page
* locale.getpreferredencoding() now returns 'UTF-8' in the UTF-8
  mode. As a side effect, open() now uses the UTF-8 encoding by
  default in this mode.
* Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding
  in the UTF-8 Mode.
* Update subprocess._args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle -X utf8
* Skip some tests relying on the current locale if the UTF-8 mode is
  enabled.
* Add test_utf8mode.py.
* _Py_DecodeUTF8_surrogateescape() gets a new optional parameter to
  return also the length (number of wide characters).
* pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config() now
  always copy flag values, rather than only copying if the new value
  is greater than the old value.

bpo-32230: Set sys.warnoptions with -X dev (#4820)
Rather than supporting dev mode directly in the warnings module, this
instead adjusts the initialisation code to add an extra 'default'
entry to sys.warnoptions when dev mode is enabled.

This ensures that dev mode behaves *exactly* as if `-Wdefault` had
been passed on the command line, including in the way it interacts
with `sys.warnoptions`, and with other command line flags like `-bb`.

Fix also bpo-20361: have -b & -bb options take precedence over any
other warnings options.

Patch written by Nick Coghlan, with minor modifications of Victor Stinner.

closes bpo-31650: PEP 552 (Deterministic pycs) implementation (#4575)
Python now supports checking bytecode cache up-to-dateness with a hash of the
source contents rather than volatile source metadata. See the PEP for details.

While a fairly straightforward idea, quite a lot of code had to be modified due
to the pervasiveness of pyc implementation details in the codebase. Changes in
this commit include:

- The core changes to importlib to understand how to read, validate, and
  regenerate hash-based pycs.

- Support for generating hash-based pycs in py_compile and compileall.

- Modifications to our siphash implementation to support passing a custom
  key. We then expose it to importlib through _imp.

- Updates to all places in the interpreter, standard library, and tests that
  manually generate or parse pyc files to grok the new format.

- Support in the interpreter command line code for long options like
  --check-hash-based-pycs.

- Tests and documentation for all of the above.

bpo-32030: Rework memory allocators (#4625)
* Fix _PyMem_SetupAllocators("debug"): always restore allocators to
  the defaults, rather than only caling _PyMem_SetupDebugHooks().
* Add _PyMem_SetDefaultAllocator() helper to set the "default"
  allocator.
* Add _PyMem_GetAllocatorsName(): get the name of the allocators
* main() now uses debug hooks on memory allocators if Py_DEBUG is
  defined, rather than calling directly malloc()
* Document default memory allocators in C API documentation
* _Py_InitializeCore() now fails with a fatal user error if
  PYTHONMALLOC value is an unknown memory allocator, instead of
  failing with a fatal internal error.
* Add new tests on the PYTHONMALLOC environment variable
* Add support.with_pymalloc()
* Add the _testcapi.WITH_PYMALLOC constant and expose it as
   support.with_pymalloc().
* sysconfig.get_config_var('WITH_PYMALLOC') doesn't work on Windows, so
   replace it with support.with_pymalloc().
* pythoninfo: add _testcapi collector for pymem

- removes PY_WARN_ON_C_LOCALE build time flag
- locale coercion and compatibility warnings are now always compiled

- adds PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE=warn runtime option to aid in

Due to not-yet-resolved test failures on *BSD systems (including
Mac OS X), this also temporarily disables UTF-8 as a locale coercion
target, and skips testing the interpreter's behavior in the POSIX locale.
