Fix usage of dry-run in packaging bdist_wininst and install_distinfo.
In dry-run mode, packaging commands should log the same info as in real
operation and should collect the same files in self.outputs, so that
users can run a command in verbose and dry-run mode to see exactly what
operations will be done in the real run.
New tests were added in test_metadata and old tests inherited from
distutils were still in test_dist, so I moved them into test_metadata
(except for one which was more at home in test_run) and merged
duplicates.
I also added some skips to lure contributors <wink>, optimized the
Metadata.update method a trifle, and added notes about a number of
issues.
A note: The tests in test_dist used to dump the Metadata objects to a
file in the METADATA format and look for strings in its contents; I
updated them to use the mapping API of Metadata instead. For some
fields with special writing rules, I have added tests to ensure my
conversion did not lose anything.
Issue #12909: Make PyLong_As* functions consistent in their use of exceptions.
PyLong_AsDouble() and PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLong() now raise TypeError (rather
than SystemError) when passed a non-integer argument, matching the behavior of
all the other PyLong_As*() functions.
Issue #12871: sched_get_priority_(min|max) might not be defined even though
<sched.h> is available (most notably on OpenBSD when built without pthread):
add an explicit configure check.

Issue #12567: Fix curses.unget_wch() tests
Skip the test if the function is missing. Use U+0061 (a) instead of U+00E9 (é)
because U+00E9 raises a _curses.error('unget_wch() returned ERR') on some
buildbots. It's maybe because of the locale encoding.
merge from 3.2. Fix closes Issue11155 - Correct the multiprocessing.Queue.put's arg (replace 'item' with 'obj') in the docs. Patch by Westley Martínez.

Issue #12841: Fix tarfile extraction of non-existent uids/gids.
tarfile unnecessarily checked the existence of numerical user and group ids on
extraction. If one of them did not exist the respective id of the current user
(i.e. root) was used for the file and ownership information was lost. (Patch
by Sebastien Luttringer)

Issue #12494: Close pipes and kill process on error in subprocess functions
On error, call(), check_call(), check_output() and getstatusoutput() functions
of the subprocess module now kill the process, read its status (to avoid
zombis) and close pipes.
Document that True/False/None don’t use :keyword: in doc.
This was discussed some months ago on python-dev. Having tons of links
to the definition of True would be annoying, contrary to links to e.g.
the nonlocal or with statements doc.
Minor improvement to extensions section in setup.cfg.
The right-hand part in [extension: foo] is now used as the name of the
extension module. (I changed the separator from = to : and allowed
whitespace to make the sections look nicer.)
Clean up packaging.util: add __all__, remove some unused functions.
This huge module is the heir of six distutils modules, and contains
a number of miscellaneous functions. I have attempted to help readers
of the source code with an annoted __all__. Removed or deprecated
functions have been removed from the documentation; I’m working on
another patch to document the remaining public functions.
For the curious:
The unzip_file and untar_file were used by (or intended to be used by)
“pysetup install path/to/archive.tar.gz”, but the code presently used
shutil.unpack_archive and an helper function, so I just deleted them.
They’re still in the repository if we need them in the future.
The find_packages function is not used anymore but I want to discuss
module and package auto-discovery (in “pysetup create”) again before
removing it.
subst_vars now lives in sysconfig; rfc822_escape is inlined in
packaging.metadata. Other functions are for internal use only, or
deprecated; I have left them out of __all__ and sprinkled TODO notes
for future cleanups.
