What's new in this version:

Security:
- Fixes python3x._pth being ignored on Windows, caused by the fix for bpo-29778 (CVE-2020-15801)
- Ensure python3.dll is loaded from correct locations when Python is embedded (CVE-2020-15523)
- CVE-2020-14422: The __hash__() methods of ipaddress.IPv4Interface and ipaddress.IPv6Interface incorrectly generated constant hash values of 32 and 128 respectively.

- Prevent http header injection by rejecting control characters in http.client.putrequest(…)

Core and Builtins:
- Fix asynchronous generators to handle GeneratorExit in athrow() correctly

Library:
- Unpickling invalid NEWOBJ_EX opcode with the C implementation raises now UnpicklingError instead of crashing
- Avoid infinite loop when reading specially crafted TAR files using the tarfile module (CVE-2019-20907)
