Better `repr` for `string.templatelib.Template`.

Feature or enhancement

Proposal:

Currently the repr output for template strings shows how the data is stored internally, but this is not how the template could be reconstructed via an constructor call and the format is unintuitive since the template parts are not output in the order they appear in the template source. The repr result should output the parts in the order as iterating over the template object does, i.e.

x = 1
y = 2
print(repr(t'{x} + {y}'))

should print

Template(Interpolation(1, 'x', None, ''), ' + ', Interpolation(2, 'y', None, ''))

instead of

Template(strings=('', ' + ', ''), interpolations=(Interpolation(1, 'x', None, ''), Interpolation(2, 'y', None, '')))

I'm working on a patch/pull request.

Inizia dal comportamento di repr di string.templatelib.Template descritto nell’issue e confrontalo con l’iterazione su un oggetto Template. Verifica che repr restituisca le parti di Template nell’ordine di iterazione e corrisponda al formato proposto della chiamata al costruttore; gh-151104 è collegato, quindi esamina quel lavoro prima di iniziare.
