Accessing the following attributes will now fire PEP 578 style audit hooks as (object.__getattr__, obj, name):
* PyTracebackObject: tb_frame
* PyFrameObject: f_code
* PyGenObject: gi_code, gi_frame
* PyCoroObject: cr_code, cr_frame
* PyAsyncGenObject: ag_code, ag_frame

Previously, the doc at least strongly implied that it had to be an iterator.

In Python 2, it was possible to use `except` with a nested tuple, and occasionally natural. For example, `zope.formlib.interfaces.InputErrors` is a tuple of several exception classes, and one might reasonably think to do something like this:
try:
self.getInputValue()
return True
except (InputErrors, SomethingElse):
return False
As of Python 3.0, this raises `TypeError: catching classes that do not inherit from BaseException is not allowed` instead: one must instead either break it up into multiple `except` clauses or flatten the tuple. However, the reference documentation was never updated to match this new restriction. Make it clear that the definition is no longer recursive.

@ericsnowcurrently This PR will change the following:
In the library documentation importlib.rst:
- `module.__package__` can be `module.__name__` for packages;
- `spec.parent` can be `spec.__name__` for packages;
- `spec.loader` is not `None` for namespaces packages.
In the language documentation import.rst:
- `spec.loader` is not `None` for namespace packages.

This is a trivial fix to [bpo-39416](), which didn't come up until it was already committed
```
Change "Numeric" to "numeric".
I believe this is trivial enough to not need an issue or a NEWS entry, although
I'm unclear on what branches the original pull request received backports.

[[bpo-39416]()](): Document string representations of the Numeric classes
This is a change to the specification of the Python language.
The idea here is to put sane minimal limits on the Python language's default
representations of its Numeric classes. That way "Marty's Robotic Massage Parlor
and Python Interpreter" implementation of Python won't do anything too
crazy.

Use an unique identifier for the different grammars documented using
the Sphinx productionlist markup.
productionlist markups of the same grammar, like "expressions" or
"compound statements", use the same identifier "python-grammar".

Enable Sphinx 3.2 "c_allow_pre_v3" option and disable the
c_warn_on_allowed_pre_v3 option to make the documentation compatible
with Sphinx 2 and Sphinx 3.

* bpo-40204: Fix Sphinx sytanx in howto/instrumentation.rst (GH-21858)
Use generic '.. object::' to declare markers, rather than abusing
'.. c:function::' which fails on Sphinx 3.

* bpo-40204: Fix duplicates in the documentation (GH-21857)
Fix two Sphinx 3 issues:
Doc/c-api/buffer.rst:304: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined in 'c-api/buffer'.
Declaration is 'PyBUF_ND'.
Doc/c-api/unicode.rst:1603: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined in 'c-api/unicode'.
Declaration is 'PyObject* PyUnicode_Translate(PyObject *str, PyObject *table, const char *errors)'.
(cherry picked from commit 46d10b1237)
* bpo-40204: Add :noindex: in the documentation (GH-21859)
Add :noindex: to duplicated documentation to fix "duplicate object
description" errors.
For example, fix this Sphinx 3 issue:
Doc/library/configparser.rst:1146: WARNING: duplicate object
description of configparser.ConfigParser.optionxform, other instance
in library/configparser, use :noindex: for one of them
(cherry picked from commit d3ded08048)
* bpo-40204, doc: Fix syntax of C variables (GH-21846)
For example, fix the following Sphinx 3 errors:
Doc/c-api/buffer.rst:102: WARNING: Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name. [error at 5]
void \*obj
-----^
Doc/c-api/arg.rst:130: WARNING: Unparseable C cross-reference: 'PyObject*'
Invalid C declaration: Expected end of definition. [error at 8]
PyObject*
--------^
The modified documentation is compatible with Sphinx 2 and Sphinx 3.
(cherry picked from commit 474652fe93)
* bpo-40204: Fix reference to terms in the doc (GH-21865)
Sphinx 3 requires to refer to terms with the exact case.
For example, fix the Sphinx 3 warning:
Doc/library/pkgutil.rst:71: WARNING: term Loader not found in case
sensitive match.made a reference to loader instead.
(cherry picked from commit bb0b08540c)
* bpo-40204: Fix duplicated productionlist names in the doc (GH-21900)
Sphinx 3 disallows having more than one productionlist markup with
the same name. Simply remove names in this case, since names are not
shown anyway. For example, fix the Sphinx 3 warning:
Doc/reference/introduction.rst:96: duplicate token description
of *:name, other instance in reference/expressions
