gh-150319: Replace all documentation which says "See PEP 585" (#150325)
* Replace all documentation which says "See PEP 585"

The following classes in the stdlib get simple updates:

- array.array
- asyncio.Future
- asyncio.Task
- collections.defaultdict
- collections.deque
- contextvars.ContextVar
- contextvars.Token
- ctypes.Array
- os.DirEntry
- re.Match
- re.Pattern
- string.templatelib.Interpolation
- string.templatelib.Template
- types.MappingProxyType
- queue.SimpleQueue
- weakref.ref

The following classes are documented publicly as functions, and are
therefore updated internally (`__class_getitem__.__doc__`) but not in the
public docs:

- functools.partial
- itertools.chain

The following builtin types have updates to `__class_getitem__.__doc__`
but not to any documentation pages:

- BaseExceptionGroup
- coroutines (from generators)
- dict
- enumerate
- frozendict
- frozenset
- generators (and async generators)
- list
- memoryview
- set
- slice
- tuple

Special cases:

- union objects are now documented as "supporting class-level []",
  rather than anything to do with generics.

- Templates might be generic over a single type (union, in theory) or
  over a TypeVarTuple. As this is not currently fully settled, it is
  marked with a comment and a mild hint that it is a single type is used
  (namely, "type" is singular rather than "types", plural)

* Apply suggestions from code review

* Correct several class getitem docs

And expand the text for tuples.

Co-authored-by: Jelle Zijlstra <906600+JelleZijlstra@users.noreply.github.com>

* Add notes on generic typing of builtins

* Fix typo in tuple.__class_getitem__ docstring

* Typo fix: malformed refs

Fix `generic` links which weren't marked as `:ref:`.

* Strike unnecessary docs on generic-ness

Co-authored-by: Jelle Zijlstra <906600+JelleZijlstra@users.noreply.github.com>

* Apply suggestions from code review

These are applied at both the originally indicated locations and in the
corresponding docstring definitions.

Co-authored-by: Alex Waygood <66076021+AlexWaygood@users.noreply.github.com>

* Update Doc/library/re.rst

Co-authored-by: Alex Waygood <Alex.Waygood@Gmail.com>

* Update Objects/enumobject.c

Co-authored-by: Alex Waygood <Alex.Waygood@Gmail.com>

* Remove tuple generic doc in 'stdtypes' page

This is covered in more detail in the cross-linked typing documentation.
The other copy of this documentation -- in the docstring for
`tuple.__class_getitem__` -- is left in place.

* Fix whitespace around new doc of generics

Per review, do not introduce or remove whitespace such that section
breaks are altered by the introduction of doc on various generic types.

In most cases, this is a removal of an extra line.

In one case (Arrays), it is the reintroduction of a line.

Additionally, two other minor fixes are included:
- incorrect indent on 'defaultdicts'
- make `mappingproxy.__class_getitem__.__doc__` consistent with other
  mapping type generic docs

Co-authored-by: Bénédikt Tran <10796600+picnixz@users.noreply.github.com>

* Move placement of memoryview generic note

Previous placement was at the end of the main docstring, which is
consistent with other types but places it after a section on various
methods (which makes it read somewhat inconsistently). Moving it up
helps resolve.

* Ensure sphinxdoc does not start sentences lowercase

Lowercase class names at the start of sentences are marked out with the
`class` role. In the case of `deque`, documentation already refers to
these as `Deques`, so this form is preferred.

* Apply suggestions from code review

Co-authored-by: Bénédikt Tran <10796600+picnixz@users.noreply.github.com>

* Fix line endings and wrap more tightly

Line endings fixed by pre-commit ; also re-wrapped the MappingProxyType
text which was too long.

* Use 'ContextVars' style in sphinx doc

gh-146302: make Py_IsInitialized() thread-safe and reflect true init completion (GH-146303)
## Summary

- Move the `runtime->initialized = 1` store from before `site.py` import to the end of `init_interp_main()`, so `Py_IsInitialized()` only returns true after initialization has fully completed
- Access `initialized` and `core_initialized` through new inline accessors using acquire/release atomics, to also protect from data race undefined behavior
- `PySys_AddAuditHook()` now uses the accessor, so with the flag move it correctly skips audit hook invocation during all init phases (matching the documented "after runtime initialization" behavior) ... We could argue that running these earlier would be good even if the intent was never explicitly expressed, but that'd be its own issue.

## Motivation

`Py_IsInitialized()` returned 1 while `Py_InitializeEx()` was still running — specifically, before `site.py` had been imported. See https://github.com/PyO3/pyo3/issues/5900 where a second thread could acquire the GIL and start executing Python with an incomplete `sys.path` because `site.py` hadn't finished.

The flag was also a plain `int` with no atomic operations, making concurrent reads a C-standard data race, though unlikely to manifest.

## Regression test:

The added test properly fails on `main` with `ERROR: Py_IsInitialized() was true during site import`.

gh-145921: Add "_DuringGC" functions for tp_traverse (GH-145925)
There are newly documented restrictions on tp_traverse:

    The traversal function must not have any side effects.
    It must not modify the reference counts of any Python
    objects nor create or destroy any Python objects.

* Add several functions that are guaranteed side-effect-free,
  with a _DuringGC suffix.
* Use these in ctypes
* Consolidate tp_traverse docs in gcsupport.rst, moving unique
  content from typeobj.rst there
