gh-105912: document gotcha with using os.fork on macOS (GH-112871)
* gh-105912: document gotcha with using os.fork on macOS
Using ``fork(2)`` on macOS when also using higher-level
system APIs in the parent proces can crash on macOS because
those system APIs are not written to handle this usage
pattern.
There's nothing we can do about this other than documenting
the problem.

gh-113009: Fix multiprocessing Process.terminate() on Windows (GH-113128)
On Windows, Process.terminate() no longer sets the returncode
attribute to always call WaitForSingleObject() in Process.wait().
Previously, sometimes the process was still running after
TerminateProcess() even if GetExitCodeProcess() is not STILL_ACTIVE.

gh-107959: clarify Unix-availability of `os.lchmod()` (GH-107960)
POSIX specifies that implementations are not required to support changing the
file mode of symbolic links, but may do so.
Consequently, `lchmod()` is not part of POSIX (but mentioned for implementations
which do support the above).
The current wording of the availability of `os.lchmod()` is rather vague and
improved to clearly tell which POSIX/Unix/BSD-like support the function in
general (those that support changing the file mode of symbolic links).
Further, some examples of major implementations are added.
Data for the BSDs taken from their online manpages.

gh-109980: Fix test_tarfile_vs_tar on macOS (GH-112905)
On recentish macOS versions the system tar
command includes system metadata (ACLs, extended attributes
and resource forks) in the tar archive, which
shutil.make_archive will not do. This can cause
spurious test failures.
