Serhiy Storchaka 8ab7b43a14 gh-62259: Add support of multi-byte encodings in the XML parser (GH-149860)
Supported encodings: "cp932", "cp949", "cp950", "Big5","EUC-JP",
"GB2312", "GBK", "johab", and "Shift_JIS".

Partially supported encodings (only BMP characters): "Big5-HKSCS",
"EUC_JIS-2004", "EUC_JISX0213", "Shift_JIS-2004", "Shift_JISX0213",
"utf-8-sig" and non-standard aliases like "UTF8" (without hyphen).

The parser now raises ValueError for known unsupported
multi-byte encodings such us "ISO-2022-JP" or "raw-unicode-escape"
instead of failing later, when encounter non-ASCII data.

The Python C API
================

The C API is divided into these sections:

1. ``Include/``: Limited API
2. ``Include/cpython/``: CPython implementation details
3. ``Include/cpython/``, names with the ``PyUnstable_`` prefix: API that can
   change between minor releases
4. ``Include/internal/``, and any name with ``_`` prefix: The internal API

Information on changing the C API is available `in the developer guide`_
