CPython workflow is changing! We're going to start using "blurb"
to manage Misc/NEWS entries:
https://github.com/python/core-workflow
(This will be a big win for release managers, honest.)
This checkin simply populates the "Misc/NEWS.d" subdirectory tree
so that people can start putting their news entries in there.
No other changes (yet).
The current regex based splitting produces a wrong result. For example::
http://abc#@def
Web browsers parse that URL as ``http://abc/#@def``, that is, the host
is ``abc``, the path is ``/``, and the fragment is ``#@def``.

Partially clarify the subprocess convenience API documentation by
explicitly listing the `cwd` parameter in their abbreviated signatures.
While this has been merged as an improvement, it doesn't fully
resolve the issue, as the `cwd` should also be covered in the
"Frequently Used Arguments" section, and the fact these APIs
pass unlisted keyword arguments down to the lower level APIs
is currently still unclear.

* test_normalization fails if download fails
bpo-29887. The test is still skipped if "-u urlfetch" option is not
passed to regrtest (python3 -m test -u urlfetch test_normalization).
* Fix ResourceWarning in test_normalization
bpo-29887: Fix ResourceWarning in test_normalization if tests are
interrupted by CTRL+c.

The Windows build now depends on Python 3.6 to fetch externals, but it will be downloaded via NuGet (which is downloaded via PowerShell) if it is not available via `py -3.6`. This means the only thing that must be installed on a modern Windows box to do a full build of CPython with all extensions is Visual Studio.
Also fixes an outdated note about _lzma in PCbuild/readme.txt
(cherry-picked from commit 51599e2bdd)
unittest.TestCase.assertRaises() now manually breaks a
reference cycle to not keep objects alive longer than expected.
(cherry picked from commit bbd3cf8f1e)
the original logic was just comparing the network address
but this is wrong because if the network address is equal then
we need to compare the ip address for breaking the tie
add more ip_interface comparison tests.

* bpo-29591: Upgrade Modules/expat to libexpat 2.2
* bpo-29591: Restore Python changes on expat
* bpo-29591: Remove expat config of unsupported platforms
Remove the configuration (Modules/expat/*config.h) of unsupported
platforms:
* Amiga
* MacOS Classic on PPC32
* Open Watcom
* bpo-29591: Remove useless XML_HAS_SET_HASH_SALT
The XML_HAS_SET_HASH_SALT define of Modules/expat/expat.h became
useless since our local expat copy was upgrade to expat 2.1 (it's now
expat 2.2.0).
(cherry picked from commit 23ec4b57e1)
The public cyrus.andrew.cmu.edu IMAP server (port 993) doesn't accept
TLS connection using our self-signed x509 certificate. Remove the two
tests which are already skipped.
Write a new test_certfile_arg_warn() unit test for the certfile
deprecation warning.
(cherry picked from commit b18563da88)
Before, Enter would not, for instance, complete 're.c' to 're.compile' even with 'compile' highlighted. Now it does. Before, '\n' was inserted into text, which in Shell meant compile() and possibly execute. Now cursor is left after completion.

* bpo-30649: test_os tolerates 50 ms delta for utime (#2156)
On Windows, tolerate a delta of 50 ms instead of 20 ms in
test_utime_current() and test_utime_current_old() of test_os.
On other platforms, reduce the delta from 20 ms to 10 ms.
(cherry picked from commit c94caca65c)
* bpo-30649: Revert utime delta in test_os (#2176)
PPC64 Fedora 3.x buildbot requires at least a delta of 14 ms: revert
the utime delta to 20 ms.
I tried 10 ms, but test_os failed on the PPC64 Fedora 3.x buildbot.
(cherry picked from commit 3402f72688)
