Fixed regressions

The deprecated attributes _AXIS_NAMES and _AXIS_NUMBERS of :class:`DataFrame` and :class:`Series` will no longer show up in dir or inspect.getmembers calls (:issue:`38740`)
Fixed regression in :meth:`to_csv` that created corrupted zip files when there were more rows than chunksize (:issue:`38714`)
Fixed a regression in groupby().rolling() where :class:`MultiIndex` levels were dropped (:issue:`38523`)
Fixed regression in repr of float-like strings of an object dtype having trailing 0's truncated after the decimal (:issue:`38708`)
Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.groupby()` with :class:`Categorical` grouping column not showing unused categories for grouped.indices (:issue:`38642`)
Fixed regression in :meth:`DataFrame.any` and :meth:`DataFrame.all` not returning a result for tz-aware datetime64 columns (:issue:`38723`)
Fixed regression in :meth:`.GroupBy.sem` where the presence of non-numeric columns would cause an error instead of being dropped (:issue:`38774`)
Fixed regression in :func:`read_excel` with non-rawbyte file handles (:issue:`38788`)
