* `flags` is indeed deprecated, but there is a validation on its value for
backwards compatibility reasons. This adds mention of this in the docs.
* The docs say that `sizehint` is deprecated and ignored, but it is still
used when `epoll_create1()` is unavailable. This adds mention of this in
the docs.
* `sizehint=-1` is acceptable again, and is replaced with `FD_SETSIZE-1`.
This is needed to have a default value available at the Python level,
since `FD_SETSIZE` is not exposed to Python. (see: bpo-31938)
* Reject `sizehint=0` since it is invalid to pass on to `epoll_create()`.
The relevant tests have also been updated.
bpo-33671
* use memoryview() with size == file size on Windows, see https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/7160#discussion_r195405230
* release intermediate (sliced) memoryview immediately
* replace "OSX" occurrences with "macOS"
* add some unittests for copyfileobj()
In some development setups it is inconvenient or impossible to write bytecode
caches to the code tree, but the bytecode caches are still useful. The
PYTHONPYCACHEPREFIX environment variable allows specifying an alternate
location for cached bytecode files, within which a directory tree mirroring the code
tree will be created. This cache tree is then used (for both reading and writing)
instead of the local `__pycache__` subdirectory within each source directory.
Exposed at runtime as sys.pycache_prefix (defaulting to None), and can
be set from the CLI as "-X pycache_prefix=path".
Patch by Carl Meyer.
string.Formatter auto-numbering feature was added in 3.4 and there
is no versionchanged note in its documentation, making the documentation
ambiguous about which version the feature is available.

* update doc to reflect new changes
* update doc
* adjust tests on win
* fix argument clinic error
* update doc
* OSX: expose copyfile(3) instead of fcopyfile(3); also expose flags arg to python
* osx / copyfile: use path_t instead of char
* do not set dst name in the OSError exception in order to remain consistent with platforms which cannot do that (e.g. linux)
* add same file test
* add test for same file
* have osx copyfile() pre-emptively check if src and dst are the same, otherwise it will return immedialtey and src file content gets deleted
* turn PermissionError into appropriate SameFileError

* update doc
* do not use CreateDirectoryEx() in copytree() if source dir is a symlink (breaks test_copytree_symlink_dir); instead just create a plain dir and remain consistent with POSIX implementation
* use bytearray() and readinto()
* use memoryview() with bytearray()
* refactoring + introduce a new _fastcopy_binfileobj() fun
* remove CopyFileEx and other C wrappers
* remove code related to CopyFileEx
* Recognize binary files in copyfileobj()
...and use fastest _fastcopy_binfileobj() when possible
* set 1MB copy bufsize on win; also add a global _COPY_BUFSIZE variable
* use ctx manager for memoryview()
* update doc
* remove outdated doc
* remove last CopyFileEx remnants
* OSX - use fcopyfile(3) instead of copyfile(3)
...as an extra safety measure: in case src/dst are "exotic" files (non
regular or living on a network fs etc.) we better fail on open() instead
of copyfile(3) as we're not quite sure what's gonna happen in that
case.
* update doc
