[issue32911] Doc strings omitted from AST

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Note, that getting the location of the dostring already was a pain since in case of multiline string literals CPython saves the location of the last line, and PyPy saves the location of the first line. Getting the location of the specific fragment of the docstring is even larger pain as shown in following examples:

    def f()
        """
        >>> f()
        """

    def f()
        """\
        >>> f()
        """

    def f()
        ""\
        ""\
        ">>> f()"\
        ""\
        ""
