ast.MatchStar.nameclass-level default value (gh-134674) #134681.Changes to and compiled from branch main
Fixes gh-134674
Problem
ast.MatchStar.name incorrectly appears to have a class-level default value when using ast.dump(). The issue causes ast.MatchStar(name=None) to display as MatchStar() instead of the expected MatchStar(name=None).
Solution
Change the ASDL definition of MatchStar, and add MatchStar to the special cases list in ast.dump() alongside Constant and MatchSingleton.
