Eli Bendersky 9872ad46d5 Issue #23549: Clarify confusion in heapq doc - accessing the mininmal element
The current documentation only mentions heap[0] as the smallest element in the
beginning, and not in any of the methods' docs. There's no method to access the
minimal element without popping it, and the documentation of nsmallest is
confusing because it may suggest that min() is the way to go for n==1.

Donald Stufft 8aaff54db3 Implement PEP 477 - Backport ensurepip (PEP 453) to 2.7
* Backports ensurepip to the 2.7 branch
* Backports some of the improved documentation to the 2.7 branch.
* Adds a private backport of the 3.x mock library as test._mock_backport
  to enable saner testing of ensurepip.

Key Differences from 3.x:

* Ensurepip does not have any Makefile integration, specifically
  it is not ran by default in the Makefile.
* There is no venv module in 2.7, so downstream distributors can
  completely disable ensurepip, ideally with a message redirecting
  to the correct way to install pip.
* To match the ``python`` command in 2.7, ensurepip will install
  the unversioned ``pip`` command as well.
* No-op and hide --default-pip and add --no-default-pip to restore
  the 3.x behavor on 2.7.
