- Update to 3.11.14: - Security - gh-139700: Check consistency of the zip64 end of central directory record. Support records with “zip64 extensible data” if there are no bytes prepended to the ZIP file. - gh-139400: xml.parsers.expat: Make sure that parent Expat parsers are only garbage-collected once they are no longer referenced by subparsers created by ExternalEntityParserCreate(). Patch by Sebastian Pipping. - gh-135661: Fix parsing start and end tags in html.parser.HTMLParser according to the HTML5 standard. * Whitespaces no longer accepted between </ and the tag name. E.g. </ script> does not end the script section. * Vertical tabulation (\v) and non-ASCII whitespaces no longer recognized as whitespaces. The only whitespaces are \t\n\r\f and space. * Null character (U+0000) no longer ends the tag name. * Attributes and slashes after the tag name in end tags are now ignored, instead of terminating after the first > in quoted attribute value. E.g. </script/foo=">"/>. * Multiple slashes and whitespaces between the last attribute and closing > are now ignored in both start and end tags. E.g. <a foo=bar/ //>. * Multiple = between attribute name and value are no longer collapsed. E.g. <a foo==bar> produces attribute “foo” with value “=bar”. - gh-135661: Fix CDATA section parsing in html.parser.HTMLParser according to the HTML5 standard: ] ]> and ]] > no longer end the CDATA section. Add private method _set_support_cdata() which can be used to specify how to parse <[CDATA[ — as a CDATA section in OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/devel:languages:python:Factory/python311?expand=0&rev=199

Notes for packagers of Python3
==============================
0. Faster build turnaround
--------------------------
By default, python builds with profile-guided optimization. This needs
an additional run of the test suite and it is generally slow.
PGO build takes around 50 minutes.
For development, use "--without profileopt" option to disable PGO. This
shortens the build time to ~5 minutes including test suite.
1. import_failed.map
----------------------
This is a mechanism installed as part of python3-base, that places shim modules
on python's path (through a generated zzzz-import-failed-hooks.pth file, so that
it is imported as much at the end as makes sense; and an _import_failed subdir
of /usr/lib/pythonX.Y). Then when the user tries to import a module that is part
of a subpackage, the ImportError will contain a helpful message telling them
which missing subpackage to install.
This can sometimes cause problems on non-standard configurations, if the pth
gets included too early (for instance if you are using a script to include all
pths by hand in some strange order). Just something to look out for.
