In the documentation for the traceback module, the definitions of functions
extract_tb(), format_list() and classmethod StackSummary.from_list()
mention the old style 4-tuples that these functions used to return or accept.
Since Python 3.5, however, they return or accept a FrameSummary object
instead of a 4-tuple, or a StackSummary object instead of a list of 4-tuples.

ZipFile can zip files older than 1980-01-01 and newer than 2107-12-31 using
a new strict_timestamps parameter at the cost of setting the timestamp
to the limit.
* help(hashlib) didn't work because of incorrect module name in blake2b and
blake2s classes.
* Constructors blake2*(), sha3_*(), shake_*() and keccak_*() incorrectly
accepted keyword argument "string" for binary data, but documented as
accepting the "data" keyword argument. Now this parameter is positional-only.
* Keyword-only parameters in blake2b() and blake2s() were not documented as
keyword-only.
* Default value for some parameters of blake2b() and blake2s() was None,
which is not acceptable value.
* The length argument for shake_*.digest() was wrapped out to 32 bits.
* The argument for shake_128.digest() and shake_128.hexdigest() was not
positional-only as intended.
* TypeError messages for incorrect arguments in all constructors sha3_*(),
shake_*() and keccak_*() incorrectly referred to sha3_224.
Also made the following enhancements:
* More accurately specified input and result types for strings, bytes and
bytes-like objects.
* Unified positional parameter names for update() and constructors.
* Improved formatting.
Various asyncio internals expect that the default executor is a
`ThreadPoolExecutor`, so deprecate passing anything else to
`loop.set_default_executor()`.
Mathematically, bitwise operations on integers behave as if there were an
infinite number of sign bits. Pragmatically, that gives the same answer as
using one extra sign bit for the bitwise logical operations.
* `flags` is indeed deprecated, but there is a validation on its value for
backwards compatibility reasons. This adds mention of this in the docs.
* The docs say that `sizehint` is deprecated and ignored, but it is still
used when `epoll_create1()` is unavailable. This adds mention of this in
the docs.
* `sizehint=-1` is acceptable again, and is replaced with `FD_SETSIZE-1`.
This is needed to have a default value available at the Python level,
since `FD_SETSIZE` is not exposed to Python. (see: bpo-31938)
* Reject `sizehint=0` since it is invalid to pass on to `epoll_create()`.
The relevant tests have also been updated.
