On macOS, SuppressCrashReport now redirects /usr/bin/defaults command
stderr into a pipe to not pollute stderr. It fixes a
test_io.test_daemon_threads_shutdown_stderr_deadlock() failure when
the CrashReporter domain doesn't exists. Message logged into stderr:

2017-04-24 16:57:21.432 defaults[41046:2462851]
The domain/default pair of (com.apple.CrashReporter, DialogType) does not exist

Clarify that a sequence of strings is the preferred value for 'field_names'.

test_build_ext() of test_distutils now uses support.temp_cwd() to
prevent the creation of a pdb file in the current working directory
on Windows.

timegm() return type is time_t, not int. Use time_t to prevent the
following compiler warning on Windows:

timemodule.c: warning C4244: '=': conversion from 'time_t' to 'int',
              possible loss of data

* Use @support.reap_threads on unit tests creating threads
* Call TestCase.fail() on thread.join(timeout) failure

At the time when an abstract base class' __init_subclass__ runs,
ABCMeta.__new__ has not yet finished running, so in the presence of
__init_subclass__, inspect.isabstract() can no longer depend only on
TPFLAGS_IS_ABSTRACT.

The constrain was removed in bpo-29816.

The bug was added in still not released version.

Disable faulthandler to run test_SEH() of test_ctypes to prevent the
following log with a traceback:

    Windows fatal exception: access violation

Add support.disable_faulthandler() context manager.

* bpo-30125: Cleanup faulthandler.c

* Use size_t type for iterators
* Add { ... }

* bpo-30125: Fix faulthandler.disable() on Windows

On Windows, faulthandler.disable() now removes the exception handler
installed by faulthandler.enable().

test_io has two unit tests which trigger a deadlock:

* test_daemon_threads_shutdown_stdout_deadlock()
* test_daemon_threads_shutdown_stderr_deadlock()

These tests call Py_FatalError() if the expected bug is triggered
which calls abort(). Use test.support.SuppressCrashReport to prevent
the creation on a core dump, to fix the warning:

Warning -- files was modified by test_io
  Before: []
  After:  ['python.core']

test_quick_connect() runs a thread up to 50 seconds, whereas the
socket is connected in 0.2 second and then the thread is expected to
end in less than 3 second. On Linux, the thread ends quickly because
select() seems to always return quickly. On FreeBSD, sometimes
select() fails with timeout and so the thread runs much longer than
expected.

Fix the thread timeout to fix a race condition in the test.

Detect when the "cc" compiler (and the $CC variable) is the Clang
compiler. The test is needed to add the -fno-strict-aliasing option
on FreeBSD where cc is clang.

Python/dtoa.c is not compiled correctly with clang 4.0 and
optimization level -O2 or higher, because of an aliasing issue on
the double/ULong[2] union.

LLVM bug report:
https://bugs.llvm.org//show_bug.cgi?id=31928

We require C99, so a configure test for this standard feature is not needed.

liblzma is missing from pcbuild.sln. This causes the build of _lzma to fail when building the solution and not using build.bat.

when pass arguments of wrong type.

Only define the get_zone() and get_gmtoff() private functions in the
time module if these functions are needed to initialize the module.

The change fixes the following warnings on AIX:

Modules/timemodule.c:1175:1: warning: 'get_gmtoff' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
Modules/timemodule.c:1164:1: warning: 'get_zone' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]

The @reap_threads decorator and the threading_cleanup() function of
test.support now log a warning if they fail to clenaup threads.

Fix also the usage of support.threading_cleanup() in
test_urllib2_localnet.

The log may help to debug such other warning seen on the AMD64
FreeBSD CURRENT Non-Debug 3.x buildbot:

Warning -- threading._dangling was modified by test_logging

Add setUpModule() and tearDownModule() functions to test_site to
save/restore sys.path at the module level to prevent warning if the
user site directory is created, since site.addsitedir() modifies
sys.path.

Skip the file if it has bad encoding.

Reported by Sean Canavan on docs@p.o.

Call asyncore.close_all() with ignore_all=True in the tearDown()
method of the test_asyncore base test case. It should prevent keeping
alive sockets in asyncore.socket_map if close() fails with an
unexpected error.

Revert also an unwanted change of my previous commit: remove name
parameter of Thread in test_quick_connect().

Skip test_normalization.test_main() if download raises a permission
error.

Buildbots don't run tests with -vv and so only log "xxx was modified
by test_xxx" which is not enough to debug such random issue. In many
cases, I'm unable to reproduce the warning and so unable to fix it.

Always logging the value before and value after should help to debug
such warning on buildbots.
