Sorry, something went wrong.
Follow-up of the HTML5 migration in bpo-10716: replace the layout tables, the /<br> encoding of docstrings and the obsolete <a name=...> anchors with semantic markup (header, section, h1-h4, CSS multi-column lists, white-space: pre-wrap, id= anchors), and restyle the pages after the python-docs-theme used by docs.python.org, including dark mode support. Members inherited from other classes are now collapsed by default. The pydoc API is unchanged; obsolete arguments of HTMLDoc methods are accepted and ignored. ServerHTMLDoc in xmlrpc.server is updated to match. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Should we make it translatable?

This is out of scope of this PR. It should be a part of a larger issue -- pydoc has many untranslated strings.
Addressed all other comments. Thank you.

- Restore the non-breakable space before "(package)" in module index links. - Indent the navigation bar HTML template. - Use the "keyword" CSS class for keyword help pages, in addition to "topic" for topic help pages. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Finish the modernization started in gh-54925: replace the remaining 1990s-era markup with semantic HTML5 and restyle the pages after the python-docs-theme used by docs.python.org.
The HTMLDoc API is unchanged: all method signatures are kept, obsolete parameters are accepted and ignored.
