Python: [Bug]: Should Content.__deepcopy__ preserve unsafe fields #7851

Description

@TaoChenOSU

Description

In Python, Content.__deepcopy__ preserves shallow copies of a list of fields marked in Content._SHALLOW_COPY_FIELDS. Currently the list only contains raw_representation.

Question: Should deepcopy preserve shallow-copied fields?
What we are currently doing obscures the meaning of deepcopy by creating a partially deepcopied object.

Proposal: discard the unsafe object and log a warning.
