When the interpreter is in a stop-the-world pause, critical sections
don't need to acquire locks since no other threads can be running.
This avoids a potential deadlock where lock fairness hands off ownership
to a thread that has already suspended for stop-the-world.
Add Ascii85, Base85, and Z85 encoders and decoders to binascii,
replacing the existing pure Python implementations in base64.
This makes the codecs two orders of magnitude faster and consume
two orders of magnitude less memory.
Note that attempting to decode Ascii85 or Base85 data of length 1 mod 5
(after accounting for Ascii85 quirks) now produces an error, as no
encoder would emit such data. This should be the only significant
externally visible difference compared to the old implementation.

Add `_Py_type_getattro_stackref`, a variant of type attribute lookup
that returns `_PyStackRef` instead of `PyObject*`. This allows returning
deferred references in the free-threaded build, reducing reference count
contention when accessing type attributes.
This significantly improves scaling of namedtuple instantiation across
multiple threads.
* Add blurb
* Rename PyObject_GetAttrStackRef to _PyObject_GetAttrStackRef

Now that the specializing interpreter works with free threading,
replace ENABLE_SPECIALIZATION_FT with ENABLE_SPECIALIZATION and
replace requires_specialization_ft with requires_specialization.
Also limit the uniquely referenced check to FOR_ITER_RANGE. It's not
necessary for FOR_ITER_GEN and would cause test_for_iter_gen to fail.
Make the deprecated set_type method resets the format, using the
same code as in type initialization.
Implementation note: this was done in PyCPointerType_init
after calling PyCPointerType_SetProto, but was forgotten
after in PyCPointerType_set_type_impl's call to
PyCPointerType_SetProto.
With this change, setting the format is conceptually part of
setting proto (i.e. the pointed-to type).

This ensures the buffers used by the empty `bytearray` and `array.array`
are aligned the same as a pointer returned by the allocator. This is a
more convenient default for interop with other languages that have
stricter requirements of type-safe buffers (e.g. Rust's `&[T]` type)
even when empty.
BufferedReader.read1() could leave the buffered object in a
reentrant (locked) state when an exception was raised while
allocating the output buffer.
This change ensures the internal buffered lock is always released
on error, keeping the object in a consistent state after failures.

Add documentation for the F (complex from two floats) and D (complex
from two doubles) format characters in the struct module docstring.
These format characters were implemented but not documented.

Previously, negative timestamps (representing dates before 1970-01-01) were
not supported on Windows due to platform limitations. The changes introduce a
fallback implementation using the Windows FILETIME API, allowing negative
timestamps to be correctly handled in both UTC and local time conversions.
Additionally, related test code is updated to remove Windows-specific skips
and error handling, ensuring consistent behavior across platforms.

Add the unicodedata.iter_graphemes() function to iterate over grapheme
clusters according to rules defined in Unicode Standard Annex #29.
Add unicodedata.grapheme_cluster_break(), unicodedata.indic_conjunct_break()
and unicodedata.extended_pictographic() functions to get the properties
of the character which are related to the above algorithm.
