R David Murray 104aab956f #14984: On POSIX, enforce permissions when reading default .netrc.
Initial patch by Bruno Piguet.

This is implemented as if a useful .netrc file could exist without passwords,
which is possible in the general case; but in fact our netrc implementation
does not support it.  Fixing that issue will be an enhancement.

Nick Coghlan 0494c2ae7f Close #18952: correctly download test support data
When test.support was converted to a package, it started silently
skipping the tests which needed to download support data to run.

This change refactors the affected code, and also tidies up
test.support.findfile to remove the unused *here* parameter, document
the *subdir* parameter and rename the *filename* parameter to avoid
shadowing the file builtin and be consistent with the documentation.

The unexpected skips were noticed and reported by Zachary Ware

With importlib getting used more and more, changing __import__ will
not work as well as people used to hope as it will potentially bypass
importers, etc. It also will not work with importlib.import_module()
as it uses "importlib.__import__" (i.e. importlib's implementation of
import) directly and not builtins.__import__.
