bpo-36541: Add lib2to3 grammar PEP-570 pos-only arg parsing (GH-23759)
Add positional only args support to lib2to3 pgen2. This adds 3.8's PEP-570 support to lib2to3's pgen2. lib2to3, while being deprecated is still used by things to parse all versions of Python code today. We need it to support parsing modern 3.8 and 3.9 constructs. Also add tests for complex *expr and **expr's. (cherry picked from commit 42c9f0fd0a5e67d4ae0022bfd7370cb9725a5b01) Co-authored-by: Gregory P. Smith <greg@krypto.org>
