On FreeBSD and Solaris, os.strerror() now always decode the byte
string from the current locale encoding, rather than using
ASCII/surrogateescape in some cases.
Changes:
* Add _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx() which has an
additional current_locale parameter.
* PyUnicode_DecodeLocale(), PyUnicode_DecodeLocaleAndSize() and
* PyUnicode_EncodeLocale() now always use the current locale
* encoding, instead of using Py_DecodeLocale()/Py_EncodeLocale().
* Document encoding in Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale()
documentations.
* Add USE_FORCE_ASCII define to not define
decode_ascii_surrogateescape() on Android.
* Add _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric() function: decode decimal_point and
thousands_sep fields of localeconv() from the LC_NUMERIC encoding,
rather than decoding from the LC_CTYPE encoding.
* Modify locale.localeconv() and "n" formatter of str.format() (for
int, float and complex to use _Py_GetLocaleconvNumeric()
internally.

Based on patch by Victor Stinner.
Add private C API function _PyUnicode_AsUnicode() which is similar to
PyUnicode_AsUnicode(), but checks for null characters..

bpo-29619: os.stat() and os.DirEntry.inodeo() now convert inode
(st_ino) using unsigned integers.

Issue #27057: Fix os.set_inheritable() on Android, ioctl() is blocked by
SELinux and fails with EACCESS. The function now falls back to fcntl().
Patch written by Michał Bednarski.
Issue #26770: set_inheritable() avoids calling fcntl() twice if the FD_CLOEXEC
is already set/cleared. This change only impacts platforms using the fcntl()
implementation of set_inheritable() (not Linux nor Windows).
Issue #10915, #15751, #26558:
* PyGILState_Check() now returns 1 (success) before the creation of the GIL and
after the destruction of the GIL. It allows to use the function early in
Python initialization and late in Python finalization.
* Add a flag to disable PyGILState_Check(). Disable PyGILState_Check() when
Py_NewInterpreter() is called
* Add assert(PyGILState_Check()) to: _Py_dup(), _Py_fstat(), _Py_read()
and _Py_write()
I expected more users of _Py_wstat(), but in practice it's only used by
Modules/getpath.c. Move the function because it's not needed on Windows.
Windows uses PC/getpathp.c which uses the Win32 API (ex: GetFileAttributesW())
not the POSIX API.
EINTR error and special cases for Windows.
These functions now truncate the length to PY_SSIZE_T_MAX to have a portable
and reliable behaviour. For example, read() result is undefined if counter is
greater than PY_SSIZE_T_MAX on Linux.
* _Py_open() now raises exceptions on error. If open() fails, it raises an
OSError with the filename.
* _Py_open() now releases the GIL while calling open()
* Add _Py_open_noraise() when _Py_open() cannot be used because the GIL is not
held
This platform exposes the function ioctl(FIOCLEX), but calling it fails with
errno is ENOTTY: "Inappropriate ioctl for device". set_inheritable() now falls
back to the slower fcntl() (F_GETFD and then F_SETFD).
Illumos. This platform exposes the function ioctl(FIOCLEX), but calling it
