The argument order of `link_to()` is reversed compared to what one may expect, so:
a.link_to(b)
Might be expected to create *a* as a link to *b*, in fact it creates *b* as a link to *a*, making it function more like a "link from". This doesn't match `symlink_to()` nor the documentation and doesn't seem to be the original author's intent.
This PR deprecates `link_to()` and introduces `hardlink_to()`, which has the same argument order as `symlink_to()`.
To improve the user experience understanding what part of the error messages associated with SyntaxErrors is wrong, we can highlight the whole error range and not only place the caret at the first character. In this way:
>>> foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
File "<stdin>", line 1
foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
^
SyntaxError: Generator expression must be parenthesized
becomes
>>> foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
File "<stdin>", line 1
foo(x, z for z in range(10), t, w)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This change:
* merges `distutils.sysconfig` into `sysconfig` while keeping the original functionality and
* marks `distutils.sysconfig` as deprecated
https://bugs.python.org/issue41282
The sys module uses the kernel32.dll version number, which can vary from the "actual" Windows version.
Since the best option for getting the version is WMI (which is expensive), we switch back to launching cmd.exe (which is also expensive, but a lot less code on our part).
sys.getwindowsversion() is not updated to avoid launching executables from that module.
add:
* `_simple_enum` decorator to transform a normal class into an enum
* `_test_simple_enum` function to compare
* `_old_convert_` to enable checking `_convert_` generated enums
`_simple_enum` takes a normal class and converts it into an enum:
@simple_enum(Enum)
class Color:
RED = 1
GREEN = 2
BLUE = 3
`_old_convert_` works much like` _convert_` does, using the original logic:
# in a test file
import socket, enum
CheckedAddressFamily = enum._old_convert_(
enum.IntEnum, 'AddressFamily', 'socket',
lambda C: C.isupper() and C.startswith('AF_'),
source=_socket,
)
`_test_simple_enum` takes a traditional enum and a simple enum and
compares the two:
# in the REPL or the same module as Color
class CheckedColor(Enum):
RED = 1
GREEN = 2
BLUE = 3
_test_simple_enum(CheckedColor, Color)
_test_simple_enum(CheckedAddressFamily, socket.AddressFamily)
Any important differences will raise a TypeError

The ssl module now uses ``SSL_read_ex`` and ``SSL_write_ex``
internally. The functions support reading and writing of data larger
than 2 GB. Writing zero-length data no longer fails with a protocol
violation error.

When printing NameError raised by the interpreter, PyErr_Display
will offer suggestions of simmilar variable names in the function that the exception
was raised from:
>>> schwarzschild_black_hole = None
>>> schwarschild_black_hole
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'schwarschild_black_hole' is not defined. Did you mean: schwarzschild_black_hole?
When printing AttributeError, PyErr_Display will offer suggestions of similar
attribute names in the object that the exception was raised from:
>>> collections.namedtoplo
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'collections' has no attribute 'namedtoplo'. Did you mean: namedtuple?
The snake_case names have existed since Python 2.6, so there is
no reason to keep the old camelCase names around. One similar
method, threading.Thread.isAlive, was already removed in
Python 3.9 (bpo-37804).
ripemd160 is not available in OpenSSL 3.0.0's default crypto provider.

Static methods (@staticmethod) and class methods (@classmethod) now
inherit the method attributes (__module__, __name__, __qualname__,
__doc__, __annotations__) and have a new __wrapped__ attribute.
Changes:
* Add a repr() method to staticmethod and classmethod types.
* Add tests on the @classmethod decorator.
Add Doc/using/configure.rst documentation to document configure,
preprocessor, compiler and linker options.
Add a new section about the "Python debug build".
This makes `ntpath.expanduser()` match `pathlib.Path.expanduser()` in this regard, and is more in line with `posixpath.expanduser()`'s cautious approach.
Also remove the near-duplicate implementation of `expanduser()` in pathlib, and by doing so fix a bug where KeyError could be raised when expanding another user's home directory.
