Bug #1651235 : When a tuple was passed to a ctypes function call,
...
Python would crash instead of raising an error.
The crash was caused by a section of code that should have been
removed long ago, at that time ctypes had other ways to pass
parameters to function calls.

Introduce test.test_support.TransientResource. It's a context manager to
...
surround calls to resources that may or may not be available. Specifying the
expected exception and attributes to be raised if the resource is not available
prevents overly broad catching of exceptions.
This is meant to help suppress spurious failures by raising
test.test_support.ResourceDenied if the exception matches. It would probably
be good to go through the various network tests and surround the calls to catch
connection timeouts (as done with test_socket_ssl in this commit).

I can't think of an easy way to test this behavior. It only occurs

encoding are different, such that you can open the file but not decode
its name.

Update the encoding package's search function to use absolute imports when
...
calling __import__. This helps make the expected search locations for encoding
modules be more explicit.
One could use an explicit value for __path__ when making the call to __import__
to force the exact location searched for encodings. This would give the most
strict search path possible if one is worried about malicious code being
imported. The unfortunate side-effect of that is that if __path__ was modified
on 'encodings' on purpose in a safe way it would not be picked up in future
__import__ calls.

References to string exceptions has been removed from the docs since they are
now just an error.
