misleading error message stating that args[0] did not exist when
either the cwd or executable keyword arguments specified a path that
did not exist.
It now keeps track of if the child got as far as preexec and reports it if
not back to the parent via a special "noexec" error message value in
the error pipe so that the cwd can be blamed for a failed chdir
instead of the exec of the executable being blamed instead.
The executable is also always reported accurately when exec fails.
Unittests enhanced to cover these cases.
Each manager test class now uses a separate manager. Also, process
pools are no longer created before starting any tests.
Note that warnings are written if the manager for a test case still
has live objects when it is shutdown. This is true for a few test cases
which fail to wait for all child processes to end.
* Simplify the code: replace 4 steps with one unique step using the
_PyUnicodeWriter API. PyUnicode_Format() has the same design. It avoids to
store intermediate results which require to allocate an array of pointers on
the heap.
* Use the _PyUnicodeWriter API for speed (and its convinient API):
overallocate the buffer to reduce the number of "realloc()"
* Implement "width" and "precision" in Python, don't rely on sprintf(). It
avoids to need of a temporary buffer allocated on the heap: only use a small
buffer allocated in the stack.
* Add _PyUnicodeWriter_WriteCstr() function
* Split PyUnicode_FromFormatV() into two functions: add
unicode_fromformat_arg().
* Inline parse_format_flags(): the format of an argument is now only parsed
once, it's no more needed to have a subfunction.
* Optimize PyUnicode_FromFormatV() for characters between two "%" arguments:
search the next "%" and copy the substring in one chunk, instead of copying
character per character.
- Use _PyLong_FormatWriter() instead of formatlong() when possible, to avoid
a temporary buffer
- Enable the fast path when width is smaller or equals to the length,
and when the precision is bigger or equals to the length
- Add unit tests!
- formatlong() uses PyUnicode_Resize() instead of _PyUnicode_FromASCII()
to resize the output string
