Improve the error message for "Optional[ctype]". Previously, it failed complaining about "or None", which wasn't the actual syntax construct on user side.

New decorator/function "@cython.dataclasses.dataclass" and "cython.dataclasses.field()" to mark dataclasses and their fields.

Tries to match the interface provided by a regular dataclass as much as possible.
This means taking the types from the dataclasses module if available (so they match exactly) or a fallback Python version that just implements the core parts (executed with "PyRun_String()" in the C source).

Use of placeholders in generated "__init__" code means the code in the C file isn't hugely readable. Probably not a huge issue, but don't really see a way round that.

As part of this I've also also implemented a Cython version of "typing.ClassVar". Although really designed for use with dataclasses it behaves sensibly when used in types in a normal cdef class. This is worth documenting more thoroughly.

Fix division-by-zero crash in tests when the C ompiler discards the computational body of a Cython coroutine.

Add a new command line option so that
$ cythonize -M foo.pyx
produces a file `foo.c.dep` with the dependencies of foo.pyx, in addition to `foo.c`.
Try to write relative paths as much as possible.

Backport of https://github.com/cython/cython/pull/4563

Make the test files that depend on "cythonarrayutil.pxi" compilable by themselves, without the search directory setup of the test runner.

Use "Py_ssize_t" instead of "int" for a node counter variable to avoid uselessly limiting its value range.

Disable parallel builds in the 0.29.x branch since they currently misbehave and fail in CI, trying to rebuild everything multiple times in parallel.

Move the option to "exclude" children from the tree traversal from the "VisitorTransform" class up to its parent "TreeVisitor" class.

Use "Py_ssize_t" instead of "int" for a node counter variable to avoid uselessly limiting its value range.

Adapt to "exc_info" changes in CPython 3.11a4, where "->exc_type" and "->exc_traceback" are gone and now get inferred from "->exc_value".

Cython incorrectly generated (optimised) range code for "for i in range(1,2,3,4)" as if it saw "for i in range(1,2,3)".
This PR deactivates this optimization when too many arguments are provided, to match the behavior of Python.
Original patch by Max Bachmann.

Avoid misleading the C code formatter into adding an additional indentation level due to excess opening braces.

Make it easier to report errors from srctree tests by adding the last output to the reported AssertionError.

appveyor: Prevent the compiled Cython modules from being picked up during the build already by first compiling them completely before putting them into the source tree. On fork()-less Windows, late starting build processes could otherwise end up with partially compiled source trees.
