For several builtin functions, we now fall back to __main__.__dict__ for the globals
when there is no current frame and _PyInterpreterState_IsRunningMain() returns
true. This allows those functions to be run with Interpreter.call().
The affected builtins:
* exec()
* eval()
* globals()
* locals()
* vars()
* dir()
We take a similar approach with "stateless" functions, which don't use any
global variables.
We replace it with _Py_GetMainModule(), and add _Py_CheckMainModule(), but both in the internal-only C-API. We also add _PyImport_GetModulesRef(), which is the equivalent of _PyImport_GetModules(), but which increfs before the lock is released.
This is used by a later change related to pickle and handling __main__.
The use of PySys_GetObject() and _PySys_GetAttr(), which return a borrowed
reference, has been replaced by using one of the following functions, which
return a strong reference and distinguish a missing attribute from an error:
_PySys_GetOptionalAttr(), _PySys_GetOptionalAttrString(),
_PySys_GetRequiredAttr(), and _PySys_GetRequiredAttrString().
CPython current temporarily changes `PYMEM_DOMAIN_RAW` to the default
allocator during initialization and shutdown. The motivation is to
ensure that core runtime structures are allocated and freed using the
same allocator. However, modifying the current allocator changes global
state and is not thread-safe even with the GIL. Other threads may be
allocating or freeing objects use PYMEM_DOMAIN_RAW; they are not
required to hold the GIL to call PyMem_RawMalloc/PyMem_RawFree.
This adds new internal-only functions like `_PyMem_DefaultRawMalloc`
that aren't affected by calls to `PyMem_SetAllocator()`, so they're
appropriate for Python runtime initialization and finalization. Use
these calls in places where we previously swapped to the default raw
allocator.
The PyMutex implementation supports unlocking after fork because we
clear the list of waiters in parking_lot.c. This doesn't work as well
for _PyRecursiveMutex because on some systems, such as SerenityOS, the
thread id is not preserved across fork().
This is essentially a cleanup, moving a handful of API declarations to the header files where they fit best, creating new ones when needed.
We do the following:
* add pycore_debug_offsets.h and move _Py_DebugOffsets, etc. there
* inline struct _getargs_runtime_state and struct _gilstate_runtime_state in _PyRuntimeState
* move struct _reftracer_runtime_state to the existing pycore_object_state.h
* add pycore_audit.h and move to it _Py_AuditHookEntry , _PySys_Audit(), and _PySys_ClearAuditHooks
* add audit.h and cpython/audit.h and move the existing audit-related API there
*move the perfmap/trampoline API from cpython/sysmodule.h to cpython/ceval.h, and remove the now-empty cpython/sysmodule.h
Switch more _Py_IsImmortal(...) assertions to _Py_IsImmortalLoose(...)
The remaining calls to _Py_IsImmortal are in free-threaded-only code,
initialization of core objects, tests, and guards that fall back to
code that works with mortal objects.

The change in gh-118157 (b2cd54a) should have also updated clear_singlephase_extension() but didn't. We fix that here. Note that clear_singlephase_extension() (AKA _PyImport_ClearExtension()) is only used in tests.
* Add an InternalDocs file describing how interning should work and how to use it.
* Add internal functions to *explicitly* request what kind of interning is done:
- `_PyUnicode_InternMortal`
- `_PyUnicode_InternImmortal`
- `_PyUnicode_InternStatic`
* Switch uses of `PyUnicode_InternInPlace` to those.
* Disallow using `_Py_SetImmortal` on strings directly.
You should use `_PyUnicode_InternImmortal` instead:
- Strings should be interned before immortalization, otherwise you're possibly
interning a immortalizing copy.
- `_Py_SetImmortal` doesn't handle the `SSTATE_INTERNED_MORTAL` to
`SSTATE_INTERNED_IMMORTAL` update, and those flags can't be changed in
backports, as they are now part of public API and version-specific ABI.
* Add private `_only_immortal` argument for `sys.getunicodeinternedsize`, used in refleak test machinery.
* Make sure the statically allocated string singletons are unique. This means these sets are now disjoint:
- `_Py_ID`
- `_Py_STR` (including the empty string)
- one-character latin-1 singletons
Now, when you intern a singleton, that exact singleton will be interned.
* Add a `_Py_LATIN1_CHR` macro, use it instead of `_Py_ID`/`_Py_STR` for one-character latin-1 singletons everywhere (including Clinic).
* Intern `_Py_STR` singletons at startup.
* For free-threaded builds, intern `_Py_LATIN1_CHR` singletons at startup.
* Beef up the tests. Cover internal details (marked with `@cpython_only`).
* Add lots of assertions

This adds a `_PyRecursiveMutex` type based on `PyMutex` and uses that
for the import lock. This fixes some data races in the free-threaded
build and generally simplifies the import lock code.
The fix in gh-119561 introduced an assertion that doesn't hold true if any of the three new test extension modules are loaded more than once. This is fine normally but breaks if the new test_check_state_first() is run more than once, which happens for refleak checking and with the regrtest --forever flag. We fix that here by clearing each of the three modules after loading them. We also tweak a check in _modules_by_index_check().
