In https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/23858 the section header for
option flags was changed from "optional arguments" to "options" with the
rationale that they are not (necessarily) at all optional, while GNU
coreutils calls them options.
In fact, POSIX calls them options (-o) and option-arguments (-o val) and
operands ("positional arguments") so it is indeed a mess, but argparse
is not yet perfect.
Still, fix the documentation generator for now so that it is compatible
with python 3.10 as well.
Fixes traceback on building the docs with:

We have a lot of these. Some of them are harmless, if unidiomatic, such
as `if (condition)`, others are potentially dangerous `assert(...)`, as
`assert(condtion)` works as expected, but `assert(condition, message)`
will result in an assertion that never triggers, as what you're actually
asserting is `bool(tuple[2])`, which will always be true.
All changes were created by running
"pyupgrade --py3-only --keep-percent-format"
and committing the results. I have not touched string formatting for
now.
- use set literals
- simplify .format() parameter naming
- remove __future__
- remove default "r" mode for open()
- use OSError rather than compatibility aliases
- remove stray parentheses in function(generator) scopes
glob.glob() is not sorted, despite using shell-style wildcards, and the
documentation does not mention this: https://bugs.python.org/issue21748
Recently, it does start mentioning "Whether or not the results are
sorted depends on the file system." which does not really get to the
heart of the matter...
This is causing fuzz too.
The current way this works is chaos since the tool might return files in
any order and thus shuffle around the order of embedded files. This
results in big diffs that cannot be easily reviewed.
Also regenerate the data according to the, going forward, canonical
ordering algorithm.
* doc: fix hotdoc misuse for dynamically generated content
hotdoc has a native include feature for including files inline. Use this
to generate one file for each dynamically generated code block, and
include that file in Commands.md; see:
https://hotdoc.github.io/syntax-extensions.html#smart-file-inclusion-syntax
This permits us to move back to using the in-tree version of the hotdoc
*.md sources, thus fixing the incorrect inclusion of "builddir/" in the
"Edit on github" links which resulted from using copies as the source.
Fixes#8061
* doc: call the dummy file a "stamp" as it is a better known term
Subprojects that use the CMake PCH feature will cause
compilation/linker errors. The CMake PCH support
should thus be disabled until this can be properly
translated to meson.
D lang compilers have an option -release (or similar) which turns off
asserts, contracts, and other runtime type checking. This patch wires
that up to the b_ndebug flag.
Fixes#7082
The new implementation will correctly pick boost from 3 possible
locations on windows and two locations on posix compatible OSs.
The new search algorithm also differentiates between debug and
release builds of Boost and multi or single threading builds.
It was also decided to map "Meson modules" to Boost software libraries
and not Boost modules since it there are a lot of options regarding
linking. Some modules can even be used either as headers-only or with
dynamic linking.
This commit also fixes a bug that prevented header-only use on Windows.
