[New-bugs-announce] [issue33907] IDLE: Rename calltips and CallTips as calltip and Calltip.

[Terry J. Reedy]

New submission from Terry J. Reedy <tjreedy at udel.edu>:

Rename module 'calltips' as 'calltip'
1. 'calltips' and 'windows' are the only two plural module names.
2. 'calltip' fits better with 'calltip_w' (which may, however, be merged 
in 'calltip'.
Module rename can be checked as with 'window', #33906.

and class CallTips as Calltip.
3. This may be the only plural class name.
4. ToolTip is singular and will be changed to Tooltip in #33839.  See the 6/17 and 6/19 messages.
Needed changes in other modules will not necessarily be caught by existing tests.  Use grep for 'CallTips'.

I will not change tooltip.py (currently not used or tested) as change here would conflict with current PR for #33839.
