gcc -Wcast-qual turns up a number of instances of casting away constness of pointers. Some of these can be safely modified, by either:

Adding the const to the type cast, as in:

-    return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((unsigned char*)s, size);
+    return _PyUnicode_FromUCS1((const unsigned char*)s, size);

or, Removing the cast entirely, because it's not necessary (but probably was at one time), as in:

-    PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY((char *)filename, (char *)funcname, lineno);
+    PyDTrace_FUNCTION_ENTRY(filename, funcname, lineno);

These changes will not change code, but they will make it much easier to check for errors in consts

The hash implementation casts the input pointer to uint64_t* and directly reads
from this, which may cause unaligned accesses. Use memcpy() instead so this code
will not crash with SIGBUS on sparc.

Reference siphash takes the keys as a bytes, so it makes sense to byte swap
when reifying the keys as 64-bit integers. However, Python's siphash takes host
integers in to start with.

Python now supports checking bytecode cache up-to-dateness with a hash of the
source contents rather than volatile source metadata. See the PEP for details.

While a fairly straightforward idea, quite a lot of code had to be modified due
to the pervasiveness of pyc implementation details in the codebase. Changes in
this commit include:

- The core changes to importlib to understand how to read, validate, and
  regenerate hash-based pycs.

- Support for generating hash-based pycs in py_compile and compileall.

- Modifications to our siphash implementation to support passing a custom
  key. We then expose it to importlib through _imp.

- Updates to all places in the interpreter, standard library, and tests that
  manually generate or parse pyc files to grok the new format.

- Support in the interpreter command line code for long options like
  --check-hash-based-pycs.

- Tests and documentation for all of the above.
