This is useful for implementing proper `input()`. It requires the
JavaScript engine to support the wasm JSPI spec which is now stage 4.
It is supported on Chrome since version 137 and on Firefox and node
behind a flag.
We override the `__wasi_fd_read()` syscall with our own variant that
checks for a readAsync operation. If it has it, we use our own async
variant of `fd_read()`, otherwise we use the original `fd_read()`.
We also add a variant of `FS.createDevice()` called
`FS.createAsyncInputDevice()`.
Finally, if JSPI is available, we wrap the `main()` symbol with
`WebAssembly.promising()` so that we can stack switch from `fd_read()`.
If JSPI is not available, attempting to read from an AsyncInputDevice
will raise an `OSError`.

* Doc/c-api/memory.rst: extend --without-pymalloc doc with ASan information
This commit extends the documentation for disabling pymalloc with the `--without-pymalloc` flag regarding why it is worth to use it when enabling AddressSanitizer for Python build (which is done, e.g., in CPython's CI builds).
I have tested the CPython latest main build with both ASan and pymalloc enabled and it seems to work just fine. I did run the `python -m test` suite which didn't uncover any ASan crashes (though, it detected some memory leaks, which I believe are irrelevant here).
I have discussed ASan and this flag with @encukou on the CPython Core sprint on EuroPython 2025. We initially thought that the `--without-pymalloc` flag is needed for ASan builds due to the fact pymalloc must hit the begining of page when determining if the memory to be freed comes from pymalloc or was allocated by the system malloc. In other words, we thought, that ASan would crash CPython during free of big objects (allocated by system malloc). It may be that this was the case in the past, but it is not the case anymore as the `address_in_range` function used by pymalloc is annotated to be skipped from the ASan instrumentation.
This code can be seen here:
acefb978dc/Objects/obmalloc.c (L2096-L2110)
While the annotation macro is defined here:
acefb978dc/Include/pyport.h (L582-L598)
And the corresponding attribute is documented in:
* for gcc: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Function-Attributes.html#index-no_005fsanitize_005faddress-function-attribute
* for clang: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/AttributeReference.html#no-sanitize-address-no-address-safety-analysis
* Update Doc/c-api/memory.rst
* Improve --with-address-sanitizer and pymalloc docs

Fixed-sized types, like ``c_int32``, are currently missing from the fundamental data types table
in the ``ctypes`` documentation. This commit adds them, and notes that ``c_[u]int8`` is an alias
of ``c_[u]byte``.
The current example `batched('ABCDEFG', n=3) → ABC DEF G` can confuse readers because both, the size of the tuples and the number of tuples are 3.
By using a batch size of n=2, it is clearer that the `n` argument refers to the size of the resulting tuples.
I.e. the new example is: `batched('ABCDEFG', n=2) → AB CD EF G`
Explicitly pass an `optimizer` parameter to the calls of `ast.parse/compile`, because if it is not provided, the interpreter will use its internal state, which can be modified using the `-O` or `-OO` flags.

Make the pwd module functions getpwuid(), getpwnam(), and getpwall() thread-safe. These changes apply to scenarios where the GIL is disabled or in subinterpreter use cases.
Clears the umask used during a test of pydoc.apropos when testing on
Emscripten. This is to work around a known issue in Emscripten; but it's not
clear if the chmod call that is causing the problem is actually testing
anything of significance.
Provide a stub implementation of umask that is enough to get some tests passing.
More work is needed upstream in Emscripten to make all umask tests to pass.
* Improved venv docs to note that isolation is the default.
* Insert "that" so that a sentence reads better.
* Improved wording.

This helps catch double deallocation bugs and is similar to the
assertion in the GIL-enabled build. The call to `validate_refcounts`
is moved up to start of the GC because `queue_untracked_obj_decref()`
creates it own zero reference count garbage.
Users new to Python packaging often try to use pip from the REPL only to
be met with a confusing SyntaxError. If this happens, guide the user to
use a system terminal instead to invoke pip.
Closes#72327

Fix "msvcrt" import warning on Linux when "_ctypes" is not available.
On Linux, compiling without "libffi" causes a
"No module named 'msvcrt'" warning when launching PyREPL.
Make grp module methods getgrgid() and getgrnam() thread-safe when the GIL is disabled and getgrgid_r()/getgrnam_r() C APIs are not available.

Previously, we assumed that instrumentation would happen for all copies of
the bytecode if the instrumentation version on the code object didn't match
the per-interpreter instrumentation version. That assumption was incorrect:
instrumentation will exit early if there are no new "events," even if there
is an instrumentation version mismatch.
To fix this, include the instrumented opcodes when creating new copies of
the bytecode, rather than replacing them with their uninstrumented variants.
I don't think we have to worry about races between instrumentation and creating
new copies of the bytecode: instrumentation and new bytecode creation cannot happen
concurrently. Instrumentation requires that either the world is stopped or the
code object's per-object lock is held and new bytecode creation requires holding
the code object's per-object lock.
