[3.12] gh-116510: Fix a Crash Due to Shared Immortal Interned Strings (gh-125205)

Fix a crash caused by immortal interned strings being shared between
sub-interpreters that use basic single-phase init. In that case, the string
can be used by an interpreter that outlives the interpreter that created and
interned it. For interpreters that share obmalloc state, also share the
interned dict with the main interpreter.

This is an un-revert of gh-124646 that then addresses the Py_TRACE_REFS
failures identified by gh-124785 (i.e. backporting gh-125709 too).

(cherry picked from commit f2cb399470, AKA gh-124865)

.. function:: getobjects(limit[, type])
This function only exists if CPython was built using the
specialized configure option :option:`--with-trace-refs`.
It is intended only for debugging garbage-collection issues.
Return a list of up to *limit* dynamically allocated Python objects.
If *type* is given, only objects of that exact type (not subtypes)
are included.
Objects from the list are not safe to use.
Specifically, the result will include objects from all interpreters that
share their object allocator state (that is, ones created with
:c:member:`PyInterpreterConfig.use_main_obmalloc` set to 1
or using :c:func:`Py_NewInterpreter`, and the
:ref:`main interpreter <sub-interpreter-support>`).
Mixing objects from different interpreters may lead to crashes
or other unexpected behavior.
