gh-151886: Add tkinter Misc.tk_appname, tk_useinputmethods and tk_caret (GH-151887)
Wrap three long-standing Tk commands that had no tkinter wrapper:

* Misc.tk_appname() queries or sets the name used to communicate with the
  application through the send command (Tk 8.5).
* Misc.tk_useinputmethods() queries or sets whether Tk uses the X Input
  Methods (XIM) for filtering events (Tk 8.5).
* Misc.tk_caret() sets or queries the per-display caret location used for
  accessibility and for placing the input method window (Tk 8.5).

Writing new tests
=================

Precaution
----------

    New tests should always use only one Tk window at once, like all the
    current tests do. This means that you have to destroy the current window
    before creating another one, and clean up after the test. The motivation
    behind this is that some tests may depend on having its window focused
    while it is running to work properly, and it may be hard to force focus
    on your window across platforms (right now only test_traversal at
    test_ttk.test_widgets.NotebookTest depends on this).
