bpo-35346, platform: replace os.popen() with subprocess (GH-10786) Replace os.popen() with subprocess.check_output() in the platform module: * platform.uname() (its _syscmd_ver() helper function) now redirects stderr to DEVNULL. * Remove platform.DEV_NULL. * _syscmd_uname() and _syscmd_file() no longer catch AttributeError. The "except AttributeError:" was only needed in Python 2, when os.popen() was not always available. In Python 3, subprocess.check_output() is always available.
