This flag was added as an escape hatch in gh-91401 and backported to
Python 3.10. The flag broke at some point between its addition and now.
As there is currently no publicly known environments that require this,
remove it rather than work on fixing it.
This leaves the flag in the subprocess module to not break code which
may have used / checked the flag itself.

## Encode header parts that contain newlines
Per RFC 2047:
> [...] these encoding schemes allow the
> encoding of arbitrary octet values, mail readers that implement this
> decoding should also ensure that display of the decoded data on the
> recipient's terminal will not cause unwanted side-effects
It seems that the "quoted-word" scheme is a valid way to include
a newline character in a header value, just like we already allow
undecodable bytes or control characters.
They do need to be properly quoted when serialized to text, though.
## Verify that email headers are well-formed
This should fail for custom fold() implementations that aren't careful
about newlines.

Re-order table of corresponding functions with the following priorities:
1. Pure functionality is at the top
2. `os.path` functions are shown before `os` functions
3. Similar functionality is kept together
4. Functionality follows docs order where possible
Add a few missed correspondences:
- `os.path.isjunction` and `Path.is_junction`
- `os.path.ismount` and `Path.is_mount`
- `os.lstat()` and `Path.lstat()`
- `os.lchmod()` and `Path.lchmod()`
Also add footnotes describing a few differences.

Adds a --with-app-store-compliance configuration option that patches out code known to be an issue with App Store review processes. This option is applied automatically on iOS, and optionally on macOS.
Add *preserve_metadata* keyword-only argument to `pathlib.Path.copytree()`,
defaulting to false. When set to true, we copy timestamps, permissions,
extended attributes and flags where available, like `shutil.copystat()`.
Add a `Path.rmtree()` method that removes an entire directory tree, like
`shutil.rmtree()`. The signature of the optional *on_error* argument
matches the `Path.walk()` argument of the same name, but differs from the
*onexc* and *onerror* arguments to `shutil.rmtree()`. Consistency within
pathlib is probably more important.
In the private pathlib ABCs, we add an implementation based on `walk()`.

They are alternate constructors which only accept numbers
(including objects with special methods __float__, __complex__
and __index__), but not strings.
It is our general practice to make new optional parameters keyword-only,
even if the existing parameters are all positional-or-keyword. Passing
this parameter as positional would look confusing and could be error-prone
if additional parameters are added in the future.
Add *preserve_metadata* keyword-only argument to `pathlib.Path.copy()`, defaulting to false. When set to true, we copy timestamps, permissions, extended attributes and flags where available, like `shutil.copystat()`. The argument has no effect on Windows, where metadata is always copied.
Internally (in the pathlib ABCs), path types gain `_readable_metadata` and `_writable_metadata` attributes. These sets of strings describe what kinds of metadata can be retrieved and stored. We take an intersection of `source._readable_metadata` and `target._writable_metadata` to minimise reads/writes. A new `_read_metadata()` method accepts a set of metadata keys and returns a dict with those keys, and a new `_write_metadata()` method accepts a dict of metadata. We *might* make these public in future, but it's hard to justify while the ABCs are still private.
In `{str,bytes}.strip(chars)`, multiple characters are not treated as a
prefix/suffix, but as individual characters. This may make users confuse
whether `split` has similar behavior.
Users may incorrectly expect that
`'Good morning, John.'.split(', .') == ['Good', 'morning', 'John']`
Adding a bit of clarification in the doc.

This amends 6988ff02a5: memory allocation for
stginfo->ffi_type_pointer.elements in PyCSimpleType_init() should be
more generic (perhaps someday fmt->pffi_type->elements will be not a
two-elements array).
It should finally resolve#61103.
