fnmatch.translate() no longer produces patterns which contain set
operations.
Sets starting with '[' or containing '--', '&&', '~~' or '||' will
be interpreted differently in regular expressions in future versions.
Currently they emit warnings. fnmatch.translate() now avoids producing
patterns containing such sets by accident.
Fix a rare but potential pre-exec child process deadlock in subprocess on POSIX systems when marking file descriptors inheritable on exec in the child process. This bug appears to have been introduced in 3.4 with the inheritable file descriptors support.
This also changes Python/fileutils.c `set_inheritable` to use the "slow" two `fcntl` syscall path instead of the "fast" single `ioctl` syscall path when asked to be async signal safe (by way of being asked not to raise exceptions). `ioctl` is not a POSIX async-signal-safe approved function.

When `__getattr__` is implemented, attribute lookup will always fall back to that,
even if the initial failure comes from `__getattribute__` or a descriptor's `__get__`
method (including property methods).
Modify RE examples in documentation to use raw strings to prevent DeprecationWarning.
Add text to REGEX HOWTO to highlight the deprecation. Approved by Serhiy Storchaka.
In the tutorial about the Generator expression, there is an example with
a dict comprehension and not with a generator expression, just removed
the code.
This issue covers various changes for the macOS installers provided via python.org for 3.7.0.
- Provide a provisional new installer variant for macOS 10.9 and later systems with 64-bit (x86_64) architecture only. Apple has made it known that future versions of macOS will only fully support 64-bit executables and some other third-party software suppliers have chosen 10.9 as their oldest supported system.
- Support **Tcl/Tk 8.6** with the 10.9 installer variant.
- Upgrade **OpenSSL** to 1.1.0g and **SQLite** to 3.22.0.
- The compiler name used for the interpreter build and for modules built with **Distutils / pip** is now _gcc_ rather than _gcc-4.2_. And extension module builds will no longer try to force use of an old SDK if present.
No longer add /Library/Python/3.x/site-packages, the Apple-supplied
system Python site-packages directory, to sys.path for macOS framework
builds in case Apple ships a version of Python 3. A similar change
was made earlier to Python 2.7 where it was found that the coupling
between the system Python and a user-installed framework Python often
caused confusion or pip install failures.
This allows the compression level to be specified when writing zipfiles
(for the entire file *and* overridden on a per-file basis).

Do not allow receiving a SIGINT to cause the subprocess module to trigger an
immediate SIGKILL of the child process. SIGINT is normally sent to all child
processes by the OS at the same time already as was the established normal
behavior in 2.7 and 3.2. This behavior change was introduced during the fix to https://bugs.python.org/issue12494 and is generally surprising to command line
tool users who expect other tools launched in child processes to get their own
SIGINT and do their own cleanup.
In Python 3.3-3.6 subprocess.call and subprocess.run would immediately
SIGKILL the child process upon receiving a SIGINT (which raises a
KeyboardInterrupt). We now give the child a small amount of time to
exit gracefully before resorting to a SIGKILL.
This is also the case for subprocess.Popen.__exit__ which would
previously block indefinitely waiting for the child to die. This was
hidden from many users by virtue of subprocess.call and subprocess.run
sending the signal immediately.
Behavior change: subprocess.Popen.__exit__ will not block indefinitely
when the exiting exception is a KeyboardInterrupt. This is done for
user friendliness as people expect their ^C to actually happen. This
could cause occasional orphaned Popen objects when not using `call` or
`run` with a child process that hasn't exited.
Refactoring involved: The Popen.wait method deals with the
KeyboardInterrupt second chance, existing platform specific internals
have been renamed to _wait().
Also fixes comment typos.
Fix socket(fileno=fd) by auto-detecting the socket's family, type,
and proto from the file descriptor. The auto-detection can be overruled
by passing in family, type, and proto explicitly.
Without the fix, all socket except for TCP/IP over IPv4 are basically broken:
>>> s = socket.create_connection(('www.python.org', 443))
>>> s
<socket.socket fd=3, family=AddressFamily.AF_INET6, type=SocketKind.SOCK_STREAM, proto=6, laddr=('2003:58:bc4a:3b00:56ee:75ff:fe47:ca7b', 59730, 0, 0), raddr=('2a04:4e42:1b::223', 443, 0, 0)>
>>> socket.socket(fileno=s.fileno())
<socket.socket fd=3, family=AddressFamily.AF_INET, type=SocketKind.SOCK_STREAM, proto=0, laddr=('2003:58:bc4a:3b00::%2550471192', 59730, 0, 2550471192), raddr=('2a04:4e42:1b:0:700c:e70b:ff7f:0%2550471192', 443, 0, 2550471192)>

The commit removes one unnecessary "if" clause in genobject.c. That "if" clause was masking un-awaited coroutines warnings just to make writing unittests more convenient.
Add test cases for IDNA 2003 and 2008 host names. IDNA 2003
internationalized host names are working since bpo-31399 has landed. IDNA
2008 deviations are still broken and will be fixed in another patch.

Until now Python used a hard coded white list of default TLS cipher
suites. The old approach has multiple downsides. OpenSSL's default
selection was completely overruled. Python did neither benefit from new
cipher suites (ChaCha20, TLS 1.3 suites) nor blacklisted cipher suites.
For example we used to re-enable 3DES.
Python now defaults to OpenSSL DEFAULT cipher suite selection and black
lists all unwanted ciphers. Downstream vendors can override the default
cipher list with --with-ssl-default-suites.
