gh-151881: Add tkinter Menu.postcascade, Misc.tk_scaling and tk_inactive (GH-151882)
Wrap three long-standing Tk commands that had no tkinter wrapper:

* Menu.postcascade() posts the submenu of a cascade entry (Tk 8.5),
  complementing the existing post() and unpost() methods.
* Misc.tk_scaling() queries or sets the scaling factor in pixels per
  point used to convert between physical units and pixels (Tk 8.4).
* Misc.tk_inactive() returns the user idle time in milliseconds, and can
  reset that timer (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).
