- minor cleanup in Metadata
- trigger creation of the sysconfig._CONFIG_VARS dict
- home_page is used over home-page: it’s not a compound word, it’s an
escaped space
Distutils2 is now synchronized with Packaging.
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.
