[New-bugs-announce] [issue45202] Add 'remove_barry_from_BDFL' future to revert effects of 'from __future__ import barry_as_FLUFL'

[theeshallnotknowethme]

New submission from theeshallnotknowethme <nohackingofkrowten at gmail.com>:

Add a flag named 'CO_FUTURE_REVOLT_AND_REMOVE_BARRY_FROM_BDFL' assigned to `0x2000000` that can be activated with 'from __future__ import remove_barry_from_BDFL'. Reverts the effects of 'from __future__ import barry_as_FLUFL' and adds the 'CO_FUTURE_REVOLT_AND_REMOVE_BARRY_FROM_BDFL' flag in indication that Barry has been overthrown from his position. Doing this before a 'from __future__ import barry_as_FLUFL' import will have no effect whatsoever. Redoing 'from __future__ import barry_as_FLUFL' will remove the flag and re-add the 'CO_FUTURE_BARRY_AS_BDFL' flag. There can be optional messages informing users of the change.
