* gh-137109: refactor warning about threads when forking
This splits the OS API specific functionality to get the number of threads out
from the fallback Python method and warning raising code itself. This way the
OS APIs can be queried before we've run
`os.register_at_fork(after_in_parent=...)` registered functions which
themselves may (re)start threads that would otherwise be detected.
This is best effort. If the OS APIs are either unavailable or fail, the
warning generating code still falls back to looking at the Python threading
state after the CPython interpreter world has been restarted and the
after_in_parent calls have been made. The common case for most Linux and macOS
environments should work today.
This also lines up with the existing TODO refactoring, we may choose to expose
this API to get the number of OS threads in the `os` module in the future.
* NEWS entry
* avoid "function-prototype" compiler warning?
* Set stx_mode to None if STATX_TYPE|STATX_MODE is missing from
stx_mask.
* Enhance os.statx() tests.
* statx_result structure: remove atime_sec, btime_sec, ctime_sec and
mtime_sec members. Compute them on demand when stx_atime,
stx_btime, stx_ctime and stx_mtime are read.
* Doc: fix statx members sorting.
Some systems have the definitions of the mask bits without having the
corresponding members in struct statx. Add configure checks for members
added after Linux 4.11 (when statx itself was added).
stx_atomic_write_unit_max_opt was added in Linux 6.16, but is controlled
by the STATX_WRITE_ATOMIC mask bit added in Linux 6.11. That's safe at
runtime because all kernels clear the reserved space in struct statx and
zero is a valid value for stx_atomic_write_unit_max_opt, and it avoids
allocating another mask bit, which are a limited resource. But it also
means the kernel headers don't provide a way to check whether
stx_atomic_write_unit_max_opt exists, so add a configure check.
Fix incorrect sharing of current task with the forked child process by clearing thread state's current task and current loop in `PyOS_AfterFork_Child`.
Functions that take timestamp or timeout arguments now accept any
real numbers (such as Decimal and Fraction), not only integers or floats,
although this does not improve precision.
The following types are now immutable:
* `_curses_panel.panel`,
* `[posix,nt].ScandirIterator`, `[posix,nt].DirEntry` (exposed in `os.py`),
* `_remote_debugging.RemoteUnwinder`,
* `_tkinter.Tcl_Obj`, `_tkinter.tkapp`, `_tkinter.tktimertoken`,
* `zlib.Compress`, and `zlib.Decompress`.
While file timestamps can be anything the file system can store, most
lie between the recent past and the near future. Optimize fill_time()
for typical timestamps in three ways:
- When possible, convert to nanoseconds with C arithmetic.
- When using C arithmetic and the seconds member is not required (for
st_birthtime), avoid creating a long object.
- When using C arithmetic, reorder the code to avoid the null checks
implied in Py_XDECREF().

Don't ignore errors raised by `PyErr_WarnFormat` in `warn_about_fork_with_threads`
Instead, ignore the warnings in all test code that forks. (That's a lot of functions.)
In `test_support`, make `ignore_warnings` a context manager (as well as decorator),
and add a `message` argument to it.
Also add a `ignore_fork_in_thread_deprecation_warnings` helper for the deadlock-in-fork
warning.
Basic support for pyrepl in Emscripten. Limitations:
* requires JSPI
* no signal handling implemented
As followup work, it would be nice to implement a webworker variant
for when JSPI is not available and proper signal handling.
Because it requires JSPI, it doesn't work in Safari. Firefox requires
setting an experimental flag. All the Chromiums have full support since
May. Until we make it work without JSPI, let's keep the original web_example
around.

Clang-cl detects that on 32-bit builds the variable is always smaller than the value. But since the same code is used for other architectures, we can't just _fix_ it. This cast avoids the tautological-constant-out-of-range-compare warning.
This fixes os.link() on platforms (like Linux and OpenIndiana) where the
system link() function does not follow symlinks.
* On Linux, it now follows symlinks by default and if
follow_symlinks=True is specified.
* On Windows, it now raises error if follow_symlinks=True is passed.
* On macOS, it now raises error if follow_symlinks=False is passed and
the system linkat() function is not available at runtime.
* On other platforms, it now raises error if follow_symlinks is passed
with a value that does not match the system link() function behavior
if if the behavior is not known.
