Subject: [PATCH] Fix Salt warnings and testuite for Python 3.11 (#635)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* Switch to `FullArgSpec` since Py 3.11 no longer has `ArgSpec`, deprecated since Py 3.0

Signed-off-by: Pedro Algarvio <palgarvio@vmware.com>

* Backport `locale.getdefaultlocale()` into Salt. It's getting removed in Py 3.13

Signed-off-by: Pedro Algarvio <palgarvio@vmware.com>

* Stop using the deprecated `pipes` module

Signed-off-by: Pedro Algarvio <palgarvio@vmware.com>

* Stop using the deprecated `cgi` module.

Signed-off-by: Pedro Algarvio <palgarvio@vmware.com>

* Add `__getstate__` to blacklisted methods, present in Py 3.11

Signed-off-by: Pedro Algarvio <palgarvio@vmware.com>

* Fix test_state test

* Use proper keys since Python's base64 in Py3.11 is more picky
