[New-bugs-announce] [issue37268] Deprecate the parser module

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor <vstinner at redhat.com>:

The parser module should be deprecated as soon as possible according to Pablo Galindo Salgo and Guido van Rossum:
* https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2019-May/157464.html
* https://bugs.python.org/issue37253#msg345398

I propose to deprecate it in Python 3.8: add a note in the documentation and emit a DeprecationWarning on "import parser".
