Public bug reported:
Python stdlib in large part is written in python and contains pretty
standalone modules. Sometimes these modules work even on earlier
versions (for example enum of 3.7 works on 3.4, if I remember right).
Sometimes these modules work even on different python implementations,
like pypy and graalpython.
So it may be be beneficial to split python standard lib into standalone
packages updated separately. This way even old rotten versions of python
will have the latest packages working in it (to determine compatibility
it is proposed to use bisection and unittests and a cache for
optimization).
** Affects: python3.8 (Ubuntu)
