After a long deliberation we ended up feeling that the message argument for Future.cancel(), added in 3.9, was a bad idea, so we're deprecating it in 3.11 and plan to remove it in 3.13.
When compiled with `USE_ZLIB_CRC32` defined (`configure` sets this on POSIX systems), `binascii.crc32(...)` failed to compute the correct value when the input data was >= 4GiB. Because the zlib crc32 API is limited to a 32-bit length.
This lines it up with the `zlib.crc32(...)` implementation that doesn't have that flaw.
**Performance:** This also adopts the same GIL releasing for larger inputs logic that `zlib.crc32` has, and causes the Windows build to always use zlib's crc32 instead of our slow C code as zlib is a required build dependency on Windows.
Clarifies a versionchanged note on crc32 & adler32 docs that the workaround is only needed for Python 2 and earlier.
Also cleans up an unnecessary intermediate variable in the implementation.

* Improve exception compliance with PEP 249
* Raise InterfaceError instead of ProgrammingError for SQLITE_MISUSE.
If SQLITE_MISUSE is raised, it is a sqlite3 module bug. Users of the
sqlite3 module are not responsible for using the SQLite C API correctly.
* Don't overwrite BufferError with ValueError when conversion to BLOB fails.
* Raise ProgrammingError instead of Warning if user tries to execute() more
than one SQL statement.
* Raise ProgrammingError instead of ValueError if an SQL query contains null characters.
* Make sure `_pysqlite_set_result` raises an exception if it returns -1.
wasm32-emscripten does not support exceptfds and requires NULL. Python
now passes NULL instead of a fdset pointer when the input list is empty.
This works fine on all platforms and might even be a tiny bit faster.
Add new functions to pack and unpack C double (serialize and
deserialize):
* PyFloat_Pack2(), PyFloat_Pack4(), PyFloat_Pack8()
* PyFloat_Unpack2(), PyFloat_Unpack4(), PyFloat_Unpack8()
Document these functions and add unit tests.
Rename private functions and move them from the internal C API
to the public C API:
* _PyFloat_Pack2() => PyFloat_Pack2()
* _PyFloat_Pack4() => PyFloat_Pack4()
* _PyFloat_Pack8() => PyFloat_Pack8()
* _PyFloat_Unpack2() => PyFloat_Unpack2()
* _PyFloat_Unpack4() => PyFloat_Unpack4()
* _PyFloat_Unpack8() => PyFloat_Unpack8()
Replace the "unsigned char*" type with "char*" which is more common
and easy to use.
In Linux kernel 5.14 one can dynamically request size of altstacksize
based on hardware capabilities with getauxval(AT_MINSIGSTKSZ).
This changes allows for Python extension's request to Linux kernel
to use AMX_TILE instruction set on Sapphire Rapids Xeon processor
to succeed, unblocking use of the ISA in frameworks.
Introduced HAVE_LINUX_AUXVEC_H in configure.ac and pyconfig.h.in
Used cpython_autoconf:269 docker container to generate configure.
Also from the _asyncio C accelerator module,
and adjust one test that the change caused to fail.

(Basically, @asvetlov proposed to return False from cancel()
when there is already a pending cancellation, and I went along,
even though it wasn't necessary for the task group implementation,
and @agronholm has come up with a counterexample that fails
because of this change. So now I'm changing it back to the old
semantics (but still bumping the counter) until we can have a
proper discussion about this.)
