[New-bugs-announce] [issue36530] Document codecs decode_encode() and encode_decode() APIs

[Gregory P. Smith]

New submission from Gregory P. Smith <greg at krypto.org>:

The codecs module has public decode_encode() and encode_decode() functions.  They have never been documented, but are recommended for some uses such as:

As public APIs, we should document them.
