[issue23624] str.center inconsistent with format "^"

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

The behavior of Python 2.7 is the same as Python 3.x.

str.center() is very old method and changing it will change formatted reports generated by third-party software in all world. At least this will break many tests. And this will add yet one incompatibility between Python 2 and Python 3.
