Anti-registration of various ABC methods.
- Issue #25958: Support "anti-registration" of special methods from various ABCs, like __hash__, __iter__ or __len__. All these (and several more) can be set to None in an implementation class and the behavior will be as if the method is not defined at all. (Previously, this mechanism existed only for __hash__, to make mutable classes unhashable.) Code contributed by Andrew Barnert and Ivan Levkivskyi.
