Clarify capturing or suppressing stdout and stderr on the old call APIs.
Do not state that they are equivalent to run() calls when they are not implemented using run as that was misleading. Unlike run they cannot handle stdout or stderr being set to PIPE without a risk of deadlock.
Before, an `AttributeError` was raised due to trying to access an attribute that exists on specs but having received `None` instead for a non-existent module.

Clarify that the naming of protocol handler methods shouldn't be literally called "protocol" but should be named after the actual protocol.

bpo-36256: Fix bug in parsermodule when parsing if statements
In the parser module, when validating nodes before starting the parsing with to create a ST in "parser_newstobject" there is a problem that appears when two arcs in the same DFA state has transitions with labels with the same type. For example, the DFA for if_stmt has a state with
two labels with the same type: "elif" and "else" (type NAME). The algorithm tries one by one the arcs until the label that starts the arc transition has a label with the same type of the current child label we are trying to accept. In this case, the arc for "elif" comes before the arc for "else"and passes this test (because the current child label is "else" and has the same type as "elif"). This lead to expecting a namedexpr_test (305) instead of a colon (11). The solution is to compare also the string representation (in case there is one) of the labels to see if the transition that we have is the correct one.
Currently, when arguments on Parser/asdl_c.py are parsed
``ìf`` sentence is used. This PR Propose to use ``elif``
to avoid multiple evaluting of the ifs.

* Add _PyRuntime.pre_initialized: set to 1 when Python
is pre-initialized
* Add _Py_PreInitialize() and _Py_PreInitializeFromPreConfig().
* _PyCoreConfig_Read() now calls _Py_PreInitialize().
* Move _PyPreConfig_GetGlobalConfig() and
_PyCoreConfig_GetGlobalConfig() calls from main.c to preconfig.c
and coreconfig.c.
No longer limit repr(structseq) to 512 bytes. Use _PyUnicodeWriter
for better performance and to write directly Unicode rather than
encoding repr() value to UTF-8 and then decoding from UTF-8.
Calling _PyRuntime_Initialize() after _PyRuntime_Finalize() now re-initializes
_PyRuntime structure. Previously, _PyRuntime_Initialize() did
nothing in that case.
* _PyPathConfig_ComputeSysPath0() now returns 0 if argv is empty.
* Cleanup also _PyPathConfig_ComputeSysPath0() code: move variables
definitions closer to where they are used.
At Python initialization, the current directory is no longer
prepended to sys.path if it has been removed.
Rename _PyPathConfig_ComputeArgv0() to
_PyPathConfig_ComputeSysPath0() to avoid confusion between argv[0]
and sys.path[0].
When Python is compiled with Valgrind support, release Unicode
interned strings at exit in _PyUnicode_Fini().
* Rename _Py_ReleaseInternedUnicodeStrings() to
unicode_release_interned() and make it private.
* unicode_release_interned() is now called from _PyUnicode_Fini():
it must be called with a running Python thread state for TRASHCAN,
it cannot be called from pymain_free().
* Don't display statistics on interned strings at exit anymore
Python initialization now fails if decoding pybuilddir.txt
configuration file fails at startup.
_PyPathConfig_Calculate() now reports memory allocation failure and
decoding error on decoding pybuilddir.txt content from
UTF-8/surrogateescape.
