Issue #27348: Restore “Exception: None” formatting in traceback module
This fixes a regression caused by revision 73afda5a4e4c. Also reverts the decimal test workaround added in revision 5f3dd0a2b1ab. Remove test_without_exception(). According to revision ecaafc32c500, this was added in Python 2 so that print_exc() would output “None” when called with no exception set. However print_exc() never worked like this in Python 3, and the use case is not documented. Restore TracebackCases class name (instead of SyntaxTracebackCases), because the class also tests other exceptions.
