bpo-36492: Deprecate passing some arguments as keyword arguments. (GH-12637)
Deprecated passing the following arguments as keyword arguments:
- "func" in functools.partialmethod(), weakref.finalize(),
profile.Profile.runcall(), cProfile.Profile.runcall(),
bdb.Bdb.runcall(), trace.Trace.runfunc() and
curses.wrapper().
- "function" in unittest.addModuleCleanup() and
unittest.TestCase.addCleanup().
- "fn" in the submit() method of concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor
and concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor.
- "callback" in contextlib.ExitStack.callback(),
contextlib.AsyncExitStack.callback() and
contextlib.AsyncExitStack.push_async_callback().
- "c" and "typeid" in the create() method of multiprocessing.managers.Server
and multiprocessing.managers.SharedMemoryServer.
- "obj" in weakref.finalize().
Also allowed to pass arbitrary keyword arguments (even "self" and "func")
if the above arguments are passed as positional argument.
