The argument is used as a switch and corresponds to a boolean logic. Therefore it is more intuitive to use the corresponding constant `False` as default value instead of the integer `0`.

This PR updates the cmath module documentation to reflect the reality that Python is almost always (and as far as I can tell, that "almost" can be omitted) running on a machine whose C double supports signed zeros.
* Removes misleading references to functions being continuous from above / below / the left / the right at branch cuts
* Expands the note on branch cuts at the top of the module documentation to explain the double-sided sign-of-zero-based behaviour
* Replace bitbucket.org domain by forge.example
* Update example to python.org
* Use explicitly invalid domain
topsecret.server.com domain is not controled by PSF. It's replaced by invalid topsecret.server.example domain. It follows RFC 2606, which advise .example as TLD for documentation.
* fileutils: handle non-blocking pipe IO on Windows
Handle erroring operations on non-blocking pipes by reading the _doserrno code.
Limit writes on non-blocking pipes that are too large.
* Support blocking functions on Windows
Use the GetNamedPipeHandleState and SetNamedPipeHandleState Win32 API functions to add support for os.get_blocking and os.set_blocking.
* Note that Popen attributes aren't meant to be set by users by rewording the text about the attributes.
* Also update some universal_newlines references to mention the modern text parameter name while in the area.

The summary of this diff is that it:
* adds a `_ctypes_alloc_format_padding` function to append strings like `37x` to a format string to indicate 37 padding bytes
* removes the branches that amount to "give up on producing a valid format string if the struct is packed"
* combines the resulting adjacent `if (isStruct) {`s now that neither is `if (isStruct && !isPacked) {`
* invokes `_ctypes_alloc_format_padding` to add padding between structure fields, and after the last structure field. The computation used for the total size is unchanged from ctypes already used.
This patch does not affect any existing aligment computation; all it does is use subtraction to deduce the amount of paddnig introduced by the existing code.
---
Without this fix, it would never include padding bytes - an assumption that was only
valid in the case when `_pack_` was set - and this case was explicitly not implemented.
This should allow conversion from ctypes structs to numpy structs

This starts the process. Users who don't specify their own start method
and use the default on platforms where it is 'fork' will see a
DeprecationWarning upon multiprocessing.Pool() construction or upon
multiprocessing.Process.start() or concurrent.futures.ProcessPool use.
See the related issue and documentation within this change for details.
