Callbacks registered in the tkinter module now take arguments as
various Python objects (int, float, bytes, tuple), not just str.
To restore the previous behavior set tkinter module global wantobject to 1
before creating the Tk object or call the wantobject() method of the Tk object
with argument 1.
Calling it with argument 2 restores the current default behavior.
This is an experimental feature, for internal use.
Setting tkinter._debug = True before creating the root window enables
printing every executed Tcl command (or a Tcl command equivalent to the
used Tcl C API).
This will help to convert a Tkinter example into Tcl script to check
whether the issue is caused by Tkinter or exists in the underlying Tcl/Tk
library.
* Add PhotoImage.read() to read an image from a file.
* Add PhotoImage.data() to get the image data.
* Add background and grayscale parameters to PhotoImage.write().
* Add the PhotoImage method copy_replace() to copy a region
from one image to other image, possibly with pixel zooming and/or
subsampling.
* Add from_coords parameter to PhotoImage methods copy(), zoom() and subsample().
* Add zoom and subsample parameters to PhotoImage method copy().
Change automatically generated tkinter.Checkbutton widget names to
avoid collisions with automatically generated tkinter.ttk.Checkbutton
widget names within the same parent widget.
By default, it preserves an inconsistent behavior of older Python
versions: packs the count into a 1-tuple if only one or none
options are specified (including 'update'), returns None instead of 0.
Except that setting wantobjects to 0 no longer affects the result.
Add a new parameter return_ints: specifying return_ints=True makes
Text.count() always returning the single count as an integer
instead of a 1-tuple or None.
* When called with a single argument to get a value, it allow to omit
the minus prefix.
* It can be called with keyword arguments to set attributes.
* w.wm_attributes(return_python_dict=True) returns a dict instead of
a tuple (it will be the default in future).
* Setting wantobjects to 0 no longer affects the result.
Previously, "tag_unbind(tag, sequence, funcid)" methods of Text and
Canvas widgets destroyed the current binding for "sequence", leaving
"sequence" unbound, and deleted the "funcid" command.
Now they remove only "funcid" from the binding for "sequence", keeping
other commands, and delete the "funcid" command.
They leave "sequence" unbound only if "funcid" was the last bound command.
winfo_id() converts the result of "winfo id" command to integer, but
"winfo pathname" command requires an argument to be a hexadecimal number
on Win64.
Previously, "widget.unbind(sequence, funcid)" destroyed the current binding
for "sequence", leaving "sequence" unbound, and deleted the "funcid"
command.
Now it removes only "funcid" from the binding for "sequence", keeping
other commands, and deletes the "funcid" command.
It leaves "sequence" unbound only if "funcid" was the last bound command.

It now always returns an integer if one or less counting options are specified.
Previously it could return a single count as a 1-tuple, an integer (only if
option "update" was specified) or None if no items found.
The result is now the same if wantobjects is set to 0.
Previously, checkbuttons in different parent widgets could have the same
short name and share the same state if arguments "name" and "variable" are
not specified. Now they are globally unique.
* Move Lib/tkinter/test/test_tkinter/ to Lib/test/test_tkinter/.
* Move Lib/tkinter/test/test_ttk/ to Lib/test/test_ttk/.
* Add Lib/test/test_ttk/__init__.py based on test_ttk_guionly.py.
* Add Lib/test/test_tkinter/__init__.py
* Remove old Lib/test/test_tk.py.
* Remove old Lib/test/test_ttk_guionly.py.
* Add __main__ sub-modules.
* Update imports and update references to rename files.
Since v8.6.11, a few configuration options seem to accept an empty value
where they did not previously; particularly the `type` of a `Menu`
widget, and the `compound` of any ttk widget with a label. Providing an
explicit expected error message to `checkEnumParam` bypasses the check
of an empty value, which no longer raises `TclError`.
