[New-bugs-announce] [issue37116] Use PEP 570 syntax for positional-only parameters

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpython at gmail.com>:

Two PRs apply PEP 570 syntax to the existing code.

PR 13700 contains only compatible changes and can be applied to 3.8.
It removes existing *args or naming tricks and makes self and cls arguments positional-only (if needed).

PR 12620 contains breaking changes and can be applied only to 3.9. It converts deprecation warnings introduced in 3.8 into errors.
