With e.g. DeprecationWarnings for "invalid escape sequence" the "module" part is the file name (with ".py" removed), because it calls PyErr_WarnExplicitObject directly:
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3cba3d3c55f230a59174a0dfcafb1d4685269e60/Python/ast.c#L4668-L4692

While this properly cannot be fixed to have the module name (yet), it should at least be documented then.

With `warnings.warn` the module is set via `setup_context` (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3cba3d3c55f230a59174a0dfcafb1d4685269e60/Python/_warnings.c#L932-L933).

This conflicts with https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/9358 (issue34624), which enables the documented behavior to not escape the pattern there.
