Description

​This method being name-mangled confused me a while back but I forgot about it, because it's really rare to actually use that aspect of Python's method naming, in my experience.

I can't see the point of it, really.

What change should be made?

Hi Tim,
Sorry, rather forgot the salient purpose of the ticket, didn't I? I'm proposing changing it to be a normal private method (_get_dynamic_attr) so that subclasses can easily modify what it does.

In 2c0be90:

Fixed #25806 -- Removed name mangling from syndication.Feed's _get_dynamic_attr().

It doesn't seem to serve any purpose.
