Fixed ambigious reverse mappings. Added many new mappings. Import mapping
is no longer applied to modules already mapped with full name mapping.
Added tests for compatible pickling and unpickling and for consistency of
_compat_pickle mappings.

timeout when interrupted by a signal, except if the signal handler raises an
exception. This change is part of the PEP 475.
The asyncore and selectors module doesn't catch the InterruptedError exception
anymore when calling select.select(), since this function should not raise
InterruptedError anymore.
Don't call _Py_open() from _close_open_fds_safe() because it is call just after
fork(). It's not good to play with locks (the GIL) between fork() and exec().
Use instead _Py_open_noraise() which doesn't touch to the GIL.
Add also a new _PyTime_AsMicroseconds() function.
threading.TIMEOUT_MAX is now be smaller: only 292 years instead of 292,271
years on 64-bit system for example. Sorry, your threads will hang a *little
bit* shorter. Call me if you want to ensure that your locks wait longer, I can
share some tricks with you.
* _PyTime_AsTimeval() now ensures that tv_usec is always positive
* _PyTime_AsTimespec() now ensures that tv_nsec is always positive
* _PyTime_AsTimeval() now returns an integer on overflow instead of raising an
exception
* Rename _PyTime_FromObject() to _PyTime_FromSecondsObject()
* Add _PyTime_AsNanosecondsObject() and _testcapi.pytime_fromsecondsobject()
* Add unit tests
In practice, _PyTime_t is a number of nanoseconds. Its C type is a 64-bit
signed number. It's integer value is in the range [-2^63; 2^63-1]. In seconds,
the range is around [-292 years; +292 years]. In term of Epoch timestamp
(1970-01-01), it can store a date between 1677-09-21 and 2262-04-11.
The API has a resolution of 1 nanosecond and use integer number. With a
resolution on 1 nanosecond, 64-bit IEEE 754 floating point numbers loose
precision after 194 days. It's not the case with this API. The drawback is
overflow for values outside [-2^63; 2^63-1], but these values are unlikely for
most Python modules, except of the datetime module.
New functions:
- _PyTime_GetMonotonicClock()
- _PyTime_FromObject()
- _PyTime_AsMilliseconds()
- _PyTime_AsTimeval()
This change uses these new functions in time.sleep() to avoid rounding issues.
The new API will be extended step by step, and the old API will be removed step
by step. Currently, some code is duplicated just to be able to move
incrementally, instead of pushing a large change at once.
Issue #23654: Turn off ICC's tail call optimization for the stack_overflow
generator. ICC turns the recursive tail call into a loop.
