Issue #6123: Fix opening empty archives and files.
(Note that an empty archive is not the same as an empty file. An
empty archive contains no members and is correctly terminated with an
EOF block full of zeros. An empty file contains no data at all.)
The problem was that although tarfile was able to create empty
archives, it failed to open them raising a ReadError. On the other
hand, tarfile opened empty files without error in most read modes and
presented them as empty archives. (However, some modes still raised
errors: "r|gz" raised ReadError, but "r:gz" worked, "r:bz2" even
raised EOFError.)
In order to get a more fine-grained control over the various internal
error conditions I now split up the HeaderError exception into a
number of meaningful sub-exceptions. This makes it easier in the
TarFile.next() method to react to the different conditions in the
correct way.
The visible change in its behaviour now is that tarfile will open
empty archives correctly and raise ReadError consistently for empty
files.

Fix for issue #7085
On MacOSX 10.6 the CoreFoundation framework must be initialized on the main
thread, the constructor function in that framework will cause an SIGABRT when
it is called on any other thread.
Because a number of extension link (indirectly) to CoreFoundation and the
Python core itself didn't the interpreter crashed when importing some
extensions, such as _locale, on a secondary thread.
This fix ensures that Python is linked to CoreFoundation on OSX, which results
in the CoreFoundation constructor being called when Python is loaded. This
does not require code changes.

Issue #7151: regrtest would generate a JSON failure if there was output
to stderr during the test run and it happened to get emitted after the
worker thread emitted the result JSON. Now we capture stdout and stderr
separately, which avoids that problem. It also means that _all_ stderr
output is after all stdout output when we print the test results, but
that seems acceptable, since output ordering is not guaranteed anyway.
The patch also moves the emit of the test name into the output block
generated after the test completes. Otherwise test names and test
output/errors were mixed in the terminal display, making it difficult
to determine which test generated the output.

When range checking was added to time.strftime() a check was placed on tm_isdst
to make sure it fell within [-1, 1] just in case someone implementing
strftime() in libc was stupid enough to assume this. Turns out, though, some
OSs (e.g. zOS) are stupid enough to use values outside of this range for time
structs created by the system itself. So instead of throwing a ValueError,
tm_isdst is now normalized before being passed to strftime().
Fixes issue #6823. Thanks Robert Shapiro for diagnosing the problem and
contributing an initial patch.
