On Unix, if the sem_clockwait() function is available in the C
library (glibc 2.30 and newer), the threading.Lock.acquire() method
now uses the monotonic clock (time.CLOCK_MONOTONIC) for the timeout,
rather than using the system clock (time.CLOCK_REALTIME), to not be
affected by system clock changes.
configure now checks if the sem_clockwait() function is available.
Having `operator.call(obj, arg)` mean `type(obj).__call__(obj, arg)` is
consistent with the other dunder operators. The semantics with `*args,
**kwargs` then follow naturally from the single-arg semantics.
* Merge the two Removed sections.
* Move "Build Changes" at the end, before "C API Changes".
* Move the pdb change in Porting to Python 3.11.
* Move C API new features in their section.
On Windows, time.sleep() now uses a waitable timer which has a
resolution of 100 ns (10^-7 sec). Previously, it had a solution of 1
ms (10^-3 sec).
* On Windows, time.sleep() now calls PyErr_CheckSignals() before
resetting the SIGINT event.
* Add _PyTime_As100Nanoseconds() function.
* Complete and update time.sleep() documentation.

* "fail*" and "assert*" aliases of TestCase methods.
* Broken from start TestCase method assertDictContainsSubset().
* Ignored TestLoader.loadTestsFromModule() parameter use_load_tests.
* Old alias _TextTestResult of TextTestResult.
In the configparser module, these have been deprecated since Python 3.2:
* the SafeConfigParser class,
* the filename property of the ParsingError class,
* the readfp method of the ConfigParser class,
Due to significant security concerns, the reuse_address parameter of
asyncio.loop.create_datagram_endpoint, deprecated in Python 3.9, is
now removed. This is because of the behavior of the socket option
SO_REUSEADDR in UDP.

Remove deprecated __getitem__ methods of xml.dom.pulldom.DOMEventStream,
wsgiref.util.FileWrapper and fileinput.FileInput, deprecated since Python 3.9.
Convert the Py_TYPE() and Py_SIZE() macros to static inline
functions. The Py_SET_TYPE() and Py_SET_SIZE() functions must now be
used to set an object type and size.
open(), io.open(), codecs.open() and fileinput.FileInput no longer
accept "U" ("universal newline") in the file mode. This flag was
deprecated since Python 3.3.
The binhex module, deprecated in Python 3.9, is now removed. The
following binascii functions, deprecated in Python 3.9, are now also
removed:
* a2b_hqx(), b2a_hqx();
* rlecode_hqx(), rledecode_hqx().
The binascii.crc_hqx() function remains available.
The threading debug (PYTHONTHREADDEBUG environment variable) is
deprecated in Python 3.10 and will be removed in Python 3.12. This
feature requires a debug build of Python.
