* When called with a single argument to get a value, it allow to omit
the minus prefix.
* It can be called with keyword arguments to set attributes.
* w.wm_attributes(return_python_dict=True) returns a dict instead of
a tuple (it will be the default in future).
* Setting wantobjects to 0 no longer affects the result.
Update documentation with `__new__` and `__init__` entries.
Support use of `auto()` in tuple subclasses on member assignment lines. Previously, auto() was only supported on the member definition line either solo or as part of a tuple:
RED = auto()
BLUE = auto(), 'azul'
However, since Python itself supports using tuple subclasses where tuples are expected, e.g.:
from collections import namedtuple
T = namedtuple('T', 'first second third')
def test(one, two, three):
print(one, two, three)
test(*T(4, 5, 6))
# 4 5 6
it made sense to also support tuple subclasses in enum definitions.
The new `PyList_GetItemRef` is similar to `PyList_GetItem`, but returns
a strong reference instead of a borrowed reference. Additionally, if the
passed "list" object is not a list, the function sets a `TypeError`
instead of calling `PyErr_BadInternalCall()`.

Improve misleading TCP server docs and example.
socket.recv(), as documented by the Python reference documentation,
returns at most `bufsize` bytes, and the underlying TCP protocol means
there is no guaranteed correspondence between what is sent by the client
and what is received by the server.
This conflation could mislead readers into thinking that TCP is
datagram-based or has similar semantics, which will likely appear to
work for simple cases, but introduce difficult to reproduce bugs.
The text clearly seems to be referencing `TestFuncAcceptsSequencesMixin`,
for which no target is available. Name the class properly and suppress
the dangling reference.
Return files and directories from `pathlib.Path.glob()` if the pattern ends
with `**`. This is more compatible with `PurePath.full_match()` and with
other glob implementations such as bash and `glob.glob()`. Users can add a
trailing slash to match only directories.
In my previous patch I added a `FutureWarning` with the intention of fixing
this in Python 3.15. Upon further reflection I think this was an
unnecessarily cautious remedy to a clear bug.

nedbat took issue with the phrasing "real module". I'm actually fine
with that phrasing, but I do think the `__future__` page should be clear
about the way in which the `__future__` module is special. (Yes, there
was a footnote linking to the future statements part of the reference,
but there should be upfront discussion).
I'm sympathetic to nedbat's claim that no one really cares about
`__future__._Feature`, so I've moved the interesting table up to the
top.
