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.
People are testing those blocs with the default
inline_comment_prefixes of None, leading to a:
configparser.InterpolationSyntaxError: '$' must be followed by '$' or '{', found: '$ sign ($ is the only character that needs to be escaped)'
* Add the metadata_encoding parameter in the zipfile.ZipFile constructor.
* Add the --metadata-encoding option in the zipfile CLI.

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.

Define *posix_venv* and *nt_venv* sysconfig installation schemes
to be used for bootstrapping new virtual environments.
Add *venv* sysconfig installation scheme to get the appropriate one of the above.
The schemes are identical to the pre-existing
*posix_prefix* and *nt* install schemes.
The venv module now uses the *venv* scheme to create new virtual environments
instead of hardcoding the paths depending only on the platform. Downstream
Python distributors customizing the *posix_prefix* or *nt* install
scheme in a way that is not compatible with the install scheme used in
virtual environments are encouraged not to customize the *venv* schemes.
When Python itself runs in a virtual environment,
sysconfig.get_default_scheme and
sysconfig.get_preferred_scheme with `key="prefix"` returns
*venv*.
As per the comments, this mirrors the [datetime documentation](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp).

This adds a new standard library module, `tomllib`, for parsing TOML.
The implementation is based on Tomli (https://github.com/hukkin/tomli).
## Steps taken (converting `tomli` to `tomllib`)
- Move everything in `tomli:src/tomli` to `Lib/tomllib`. Exclude `py.typed`.
- Remove `__version__ = ...` line from `Lib/tomllib/__init__.py`
- Move everything in `tomli:tests` to `Lib/test/test_tomllib`. Exclude the following test data dirs recursively:
- `tomli:tests/data/invalid/_external/`
- `tomli:tests/data/valid/_external/`
- Create `Lib/test/test_tomllib/__main__.py`:
```python
import unittest
from . import load_tests
unittest.main()
```
- Add the following to `Lib/test/test_tomllib/__init__.py`:
```python
import os
from test.support import load_package_tests
def load_tests(*args):
return load_package_tests(os.path.dirname(__file__), *args)
```
Also change `import tomli as tomllib` to `import tomllib`.
- In `cpython/Lib/tomllib/_parser.py` replace `__fp` with `fp` and `__s` with
`s`. Add the `/` to `load` and `loads` function signatures.
- Run `make regen-stdlib-module-names`
- Create `Doc/library/tomllib.rst` and reference it in `Doc/library/fileformats.rst`
For threads, and for multiprocessing, it's always been the case that ``args=list`` works fine when passed to ``Process()`` or ``Thread()``, and such code is common in the wild. But, according to the docs, only a tuple can be used. This brings the docs into synch with reality.

Remove the undocumented private float.__set_format__() method,
previously known as float.__set_format__() in Python 3.7. Its
docstring said: "You probably don't want to use this function. It
exists mainly to be used in Python's test suite."
