10dda6e029 Add a hint that CSD == Service Pack.
People searcing for the way to get a "service pack" will never find that we
provide it here, and people that find this function won't know what CSD is
until they run the function. On top of this, they won't know what the value
means unless they really have a service pack installed.

CSD, or Customer Service Diagnostics, is apparently no longer used, and was
rarely used term at that. Most references to it online are from
universities making Windows 2000 and XP service packs available to students.

5311c1d7ab Issue #13772: In os.symlink() under Windows, do not try to guess the link
target's type (file or directory).  The detection was buggy and made the
call non-atomic (therefore prone to race conditions).

9cff42736d Hide or remove user-visible XXX notes from distutils doc (#13716).
Requested by Florent Xicluna with the rationale that they make the docs
look unfinished.  I’ve also removed a few XXX notes that were not
visible in the HTML but could waste contributors’ time by suggesting
improvements that are never going to happen for distutils.
