Research direction

Start with the linked deprecate-flush.v2.patch and compare it with deprecate-flush.patch and max_length.patch to understand the proposed zlib decompressor flush() change. Check the Python 3.6 target and the existing patch-review discussion; done means the deprecation is implemented consistently with the accepted proposal and its relevant tests pass.
