gh-100001: Omit control characters in http.server stderr logs. (GH-100002) (#100032)gentoo-3.9-7.3.10

* gh-100001: Omit control characters in http.server stderr logs. (GH-100002)

Replace control characters in http.server.BaseHTTPRequestHandler.log_message with an escaped \xHH sequence to avoid causing problems for the terminal the output is printed to.
(cherry picked from commit d8ab0a4dfa48f881b4ac9ab857d2e9de42f72828)

* also escape \s (backport of PR #100038).

* add versionadded and remove extra 'to'
