Contrary to the current docs, ast.Constant will never hold containers
such as frozenset or tuple; the Python parser only emits it for simple
literals.
For precision, add the exact list of types that may be contained in an
ast.Constant.

This adds a warning about the possibly-missing NUL terminator, but in a way
that doesn't make it sound like a bug/wart.

Fix typing.TYPE_CHECKING docs to reflect PEP 649. (GH-134813)
typing.TYPE_CHECKING should no longer steer users towards
manual or automatic stringization (and PEP 563); PEP 649
makes all that unnecessary.

gh-133960: Improve typing.evaluate_forward_ref (GH-133961)
As explained in GH-133960, this removes most of the behavior differences with ForwardRef.evaluate.
The remaining difference is about recursive evaluation of forwardrefs; this is practically useful
in cases where an annotation refers to a type alias that itself is string-valued.
This also improves several edge cases that were previously not handled optimally. For example,
the function now takes advantage of the partial evaluation behavior of ForwardRef.evaluate() to
evaluate more ForwardRefs in the FORWARDREF format.
This also fixes GH-133959 as a side effect, because the buggy behavior in GH-133959 derives from
evaluate_forward_ref().
