gh-125260: Change the default `gzip.compress()` mtime to 0 (#125261)
This follows GNU gzip, which defaults to using 0 as the mtime
for compressing stdin, where no file mtime is involved.

This makes the output of gzip.compress() deterministic by default,
greatly helping reproducible builds.

gh-124872: Refine contextvars documentation (#124773)
* Add definitions for "context", "current context", and "context
    management protocol".
  * Update related definitions to be consistent with the new
    definitions.
  * Restructure the documentation for the `contextvars.Context` class
    to prepare for adding context manager support, and for consistency
    with the definitions.
  * Use `testcode` and `testoutput` to test the `Context.run` example.
  * Expand the documentation for the `Py_CONTEXT_EVENT_ENTER` and
    `Py_CONTEXT_EVENT_EXIT` events to clarify and to prepare for
    planned changes.

bpo-34206: Improve docs and test coverage for pre-init functions (#8023)
- move the Py_Main documentation from the very high level API section
  to the initialization and finalization section
- make it clear that it encapsulates a full Py_Initialize/Finalize
  cycle of its own
- point out that exactly which settings will be read and applied
  correctly when Py_Main is called after a separate runtime
  initialization call is version dependent
- be explicit that Py_IsInitialized can be called prior to
  initialization
- actually test that Py_IsInitialized can be called prior to
  initialization
- flush stdout in the embedding tests that run code so it appears
  in the expected order when running with "-vv"
- make "-vv" on the subinterpreter embedding tests less spammy

gh-69998: Fix decoding error in locale.nl_langinfo() (GH-124963)
The function now sets temporarily the LC_CTYPE locale to the locale
of the category that determines the requested value if the locales are
different and the resulting string is non-ASCII.
This temporary change affects other threads.

gh-70870: Clarify dual usage of 'free variable' (#122545)
The term "free variable" has unfortunately become genuinely
ambiguous over the years (presumably due to the names of
some relevant code object instance attributes).

While we can't eliminate that ambiguity at this late date, we can
at least alert people to the potential ambiguity by describing
both the formal meaning of the term and the common
alternative use as a direct synonym for "closure variable".

gh-87135: Hang non-main threads that attempt to acquire the GIL during finalization (GH-105805)
Instead of surprise crashes and memory corruption, we now hang threads that attempt to re-enter the Python interpreter after Python runtime finalization has started. These are typically daemon threads (our long standing mis-feature) but could also be threads spawned by extension modules that then try to call into Python. This marks the `PyThread_exit_thread` public C API as deprecated as there is no plausible safe way to accomplish that on any supported platform in the face of things like C++ code with finalizers anywhere on a thread's stack. Doing this was the least bad option.
