* Fix sphinx-lint error in NEWS entry

This was added for bpo-40514 (gh-84694) to test out a per-interpreter GIL. However, it has since proven unnecessary to keep the experiment in the repo. (It can be done as a branch in a fork like normal.) So here we are removing:
* the configure option
* the macro
* the code enabled by the macro

- Remove ``--with-tclk-*`` options from `configure`
- Use pkg-config to detect `_tkinter` dependencies (Tcl/Tk, X11)
- Manual override via environment variables `TCLTK_CFLAGS` and `TCLTK_LIBS`
In Linux kernel 5.14 one can dynamically request size of altstacksize
based on hardware capabilities with getauxval(AT_MINSIGSTKSZ).
This changes allows for Python extension's request to Linux kernel
to use AMX_TILE instruction set on Sapphire Rapids Xeon processor
to succeed, unblocking use of the ISA in frameworks.
Introduced HAVE_LINUX_AUXVEC_H in configure.ac and pyconfig.h.in
Used cpython_autoconf:269 docker container to generate configure.
Almost all checks are now cached by AC_CACHE_CHECK().
Common patterns are replaced by helper macros.
Variable names now use naming scheme ``ac_cv_func_$funcname``,
``ac_cv_lib_$library_$funcname``, or ``ac_cv_header_$headername_h``.
``SYS_SELECT_WITH_SYS_TIME`` is no longer used.
``uuid_create`` and ``uuid_enc_be`` are provided by libc on BSD. It is
safe to use ``AC_CHECK_FUNCS`` here.
Caching speeds up ./configure -C from ~ 4s to 2.6s on my system.

Freelists for object structs can now be disabled. A new ``configure``
option ``--without-freelists`` can be used to disable all freelists
except empty tuple singleton. Internal Py*_MAXFREELIST macros can now
be defined as 0 without causing compiler warnings and segfaults.

Remove fallbacks for missing round(), copysign() and hypot() in
Python/pymath.c. Python now requires these functions to build.
These fallbacks were needed on Visual Studio 2012 and older. They are
no longer needed since Visual Stuido 2013. Python is now built with
Visual Studio 2017 or newer since Python 3.6.
Building Python now requires a C99 <math.h> header file providing
isinf(), isnan() and isfinite() functions.
Remove the Py_FORCE_DOUBLE() macro. It was used by the
Py_IS_INFINITY() macro.
Changes:
* Remove Py_IS_NAN(), Py_IS_INFINITY() and Py_IS_FINITE()
in PC/pyconfig.h.
* Remove the _Py_force_double() function.
* configure no longer checks if math.h defines isinf(), isnan() and
isfinite().
