* Name without a PATHEXT extension is only searched if the mode does not
include X_OK.
* Support multi-component PATHEXT extensions (e.g. ".foo.bar").
* Support files without extensions in PATHEXT contains dot-only extension
(".", "..", etc).
* Support PATHEXT extensions that end with a dot (e.g. ".foo.").
The usage parameter of argparse.ArgumentParser no longer
affects the default value of the prog parameter in subparsers.
Previously the full custom usage of the main parser was used as
the prog prefix in subparsers.
Adjust `pathname2url()` to encode embedded colon characters in Windows
paths, rather than bailing out with an `OSError`.

If the cpXXX encoding is not directly implemented in Python, fall back
to use the Windows-specific API codecs.code_page_encode() and
codecs.code_page_decode().
This was flagged to me at a party today by someone who works in red-teaming as a frequently encountered footgun. Documenting the potentially unexpected behavior seemed like a good place to start.
* Document that slices can be marshalled
* Deduplicate and organize the list of supported types
in docs
* Organize the type code list in marshal.c, to make
it more obvious that this is a versioned format
* Back-fill some historical info

* gh-123832: Adjust `socket.getaddrinfo` docs for better POSIX compliance
This changes nothing changes for CPython supported platforms,
but hints how to deal with platforms that stick to the letter of
the spec.
It also marks `socket.getaddrinfo` as a wrapper around `getaddrinfo(3)`;
specifically, workarounds to make the function work consistently across
platforms are out of scope in its code.
Include wording similar to the POSIX's “by providing options and by
limiting the returned information”, which IMO suggests that the
hints limit the resulting list compared to the defaults, *but* can
be interpreted differently. Details are added in a note.
Specifically say that this wraps the underlying C function. So, the
details are in OS docs. The “full range of results” bit goes away.
Use `AF_UNSPEC` rather than zero for the *family* default, although
I don't think a system where it's nonzero would be very usable.
Suggest setting proto and/or type (with examples, as the appropriate
values aren't obvious). Say why you probably want to do that that
on all systems; mention the behavior on the “letter of the spec”
systems.
Suggest that the results should be tried in order, which is,
AFAIK best practice -- see RFC 6724 section 2, and its predecessor
from 2003 (which are specific to IP, but indicate how people use this):
> Well-behaved applications SHOULD iterate through the list of
> addresses returned from `getaddrinfo()` until they find a working address.

Accepting objects with false values (like 0 and []) except empty strings
and byte-like objects and None in urllib.parse functions parse_qsl() and
parse_qs() is now deprecated.
Replace the os.environ.refresh() method with a new
os.reload_environ() function.

Add missing ``allow_unnamed_section`` parameter to ``ConfigParser`` doc, as well as to it's parent ``RawConfigParser``.
Split too long line on ``ConfigParser`` signature.
Add some sections about when some of ``RawConfigParser`` parameters were added.

* gh-99880: document rounding mode for new-style formatting
The CPython uses _Py_dg_dtoa(), which does rounding to nearest with half
to even tie-breaking rule.
If that functions is unavailable, PyOS_double_to_string() fallbacks to
system snprintf(). Since CPython 3.12, build requirements include C11
compiler *and* support for IEEE 754 floating point numbers (Annex F).
This means that FE_TONEAREST macro is available and, per default,
printf-like functions should use same rounding mode as _Py_dg_dtoa().

* docs: add a more precise example
Previous example used manual integer value assignment in class based declaration but in functional syntax has been used auto value assignment what could be confusing for the new users. Additionally documentation doesn't show how to declare new enum via functional syntax with usage of the manual value assignment.

Add `pathlib.Path.scandir()` as a trivial wrapper of `os.scandir()`. This
will be used to implement several `PathBase` methods more efficiently,
including methods that provide `Path.copy()`.
Update time.rst to use `the same clock as` instead of `the same clock than`
The time documentation uses the same clock than time.monotonic instead of the same clock as time.monotonic, which is grammatically false. This PR fixes changes two instances of `the same clock than` to `the same clock as`.
