Self-documenting expressions conversion + format-spec

Bug report

Bug description:

# initialisation
foo = "hello!"
bar = "hello, world!"
long_name = bar
print(f"{foo = }")
print(f"{bar = }")
print()

# these work as I expected
# they default to !r value conversion
print(f"{f"{foo=}" = }")
print(f"{f"{bar=}" = }")
print(f"{(f"{foo=}" == f"{foo=!r}") = }")
print()

# these do not work as I expected
# they default to !s value conversion, instead of !r
print(f"{f"{foo=:}" = }")
print(f"{f"{bar=:}" = }")
print(f"{(f"{foo=:}" == f"{foo=!r}") = }")
print(f"{(f"{foo=:}" == f"{foo=!s}") = }")
print()

# these do not work as I expected
# they apply padding to the expression value
# the expression itself is not taken into account
# as a result, the true string length is dependent on the expression length
print(f"{f"{bar=!r:20}." = }")
print(f"{len(f"{bar=!r:20}.") = }")
print(f"{f"{long_name=!r:20}." = }")
print(f"{len(f"{long_name=!r:20}.") = }")
print()

# these do not work as I expected
# they apply alignment only to the expression value
# the expression itself is always left-aligned
print(f"{f"{bar=!r:>20}" = }")
print(f"{len(f"{bar=!r:>20}") = }")
print(f"{f"{long_name=!r:>20}" = }")
print(f"{len(f"{long_name=!r:>20}") = }")

Expected results

• Default value conversion mode should be consistent regardless of whether : is present
• The whole self-documenting expression should be padded / aligned

Reproduziere die gemeldeten Fälle für f-string-Konvertierung, Padding und Ausrichtung unter Python 3.13 und verfolge anschließend die Einstiegspunkte für das Parsen und Formatieren von f-string in CPython. Füge Regressionstests hinzu, die die mitgelieferten erwarteten Ergebnisse abdecken; fertig bedeutet, dass selbst dokumentierende Ausdrücke mit Doppelpunkt mit der Konvertierung ohne Doppelpunkt übereinstimmen und den vollständigen Ausdruck konsistent formatieren.
