Add PyConfig_Get(), PyConfig_GetInt(), PyConfig_Set() and
PyConfig_Names() functions to get and set the current runtime Python
configuration.
Add visibility and "sys spec" to config and preconfig specifications.
_PyConfig_AsDict() now converts PyConfig.xoptions as a dictionary.

The free-threaded build partially stores heap type reference counts in
distributed manner in per-thread arrays. This avoids reference count
contention when creating or destroying instances.

Change _PyLong_IsCompact() and _PyLong_CompactValue() parameter type
from 'PyObject*' to 'const PyObject*'. Avoid the Py_TYPE() macro
which does not support const parameter.
The `_PySeqLock_EndRead` function needs an acquire fence to ensure that
the load of the sequence happens after any loads within the read side
critical section. The missing fence can trigger bugs on macOS arm64.
Additionally, we need a release fence in `_PySeqLock_LockWrite` to
ensure that the sequence update is visible before any modifications to
the cache entry.
Remove the const qualifier of the argument of functions:
* _PyLong_IsCompact()
* _PyLong_CompactValue()
Py_TYPE() argument is not const.
Fix the compiler warning:
Include/cpython/longintrepr.h: In function ‘_PyLong_CompactValue’:
Include/pyport.h:19:31: error: cast discards ‘const’ qualifier from
pointer target type [-Werror=cast-qual]
(...)
Include/cpython/longintrepr.h:133:30: note: in expansion of macro
‘Py_TYPE’
assert(PyType_HasFeature(Py_TYPE(op), Py_TPFLAGS_LONG_SUBCLASS));
This makes the following macros public as part of the non-limited C-API for
locking a single object or two objects at once.
* `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION(op)` / `Py_END_CRITICAL_SECTION()`
* `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION2(a, b)` / `Py_END_CRITICAL_SECTION2()`
The supporting functions and structs used by the macros are also exposed for
cases where C macros are not available.
This exposes `PyUnstable_Object_ClearWeakRefsNoCallbacks` as an unstable
C-API function to provide a thread-safe mechanism for clearing weakrefs
without executing callbacks.
Some C-API extensions need to clear weakrefs without calling callbacks,
such as after running finalizers like we do in subtype_dealloc.
Previously they could use `_PyWeakref_ClearRef` on each weakref, but
that's not thread-safe in the free-threaded build.

`drop_gil()` assumes that its caller is attached, which means that the current
thread holds the GIL if and only if the GIL is enabled, and the enabled-state
of the GIL won't change. This isn't true, though, because `detach_thread()`
calls `_PyEval_ReleaseLock()` after detaching and
`_PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent()` calls it after removing the current thread
from consideration for stop-the-world requests (effectively detaching it).
Fix this by remembering whether or not a thread acquired the GIL when it last
attached, in `PyThreadState._status.holds_gil`, and check this in `drop_gil()`
instead of `gil->enabled`.
This fixes a crash in `test_multiprocessing_pool_circular_import()`, so I've
reenabled it.
_PyWeakref_ClearRef was previously exposed in the public C-API, although
it begins with an underscore and is not documented. It's used by a few
C-API extensions. There is currently no alternative public API that can
replace its use.
_PyWeakref_ClearWeakRefsExceptCallbacks is the only thread-safe way to
use _PyWeakref_ClearRef in the free-threaded build. This exposes the C
symbol, but does not make the API public.
Add _PyType_LookupRef and use incref before setting attribute on type
Makes setting an attribute on a class and signaling type modified atomic
Avoid adding re-entrancy exposing the type cache in an inconsistent state by decrefing after type is updated
Add "Raw" variant of PyTime functions:
* PyTime_MonotonicRaw()
* PyTime_PerfCounterRaw()
* PyTime_TimeRaw()
Changes:
* Add documentation and tests. Tests release the GIL while calling
raw clock functions.
* py_get_system_clock() and py_get_monotonic_clock() now check that
the GIL is hold by the caller if raise_exc is non-zero.
* Reimplement "Unchecked" functions with raw clock functions.

Account for `add_stopiteration_handler` pushing a block for `async with`.
To allow generator functions that previously almost hit the `CO_MAXBLOCKS`
limit by nesting non-async blocks, the limit is increased by 1.
This increase allows one more block in non-generator functions.
