gh-91048: Refactor and optimize remote debugging module (#134652)
Completely refactor Modules/_remote_debugging_module.c with improved
code organization, replacing scattered reference counting and error
handling with centralized goto error paths. This cleanup improves
maintainability and reduces code duplication throughout the module while
preserving the same external API.
Implement memory page caching optimization in Python/remote_debug.h to
avoid repeated reads of the same memory regions during debugging
operations. The cache stores previously read memory pages and reuses
them for subsequent reads, significantly reducing system calls and
improving performance.
Add code object caching mechanism with a new code_object_generation
field in the interpreter state that tracks when code object caches need
invalidation. This allows efficient reuse of parsed code object metadata
and eliminates redundant processing of the same code objects across
debugging sessions.
Optimize memory operations by replacing multiple individual structure
copies with single bulk reads for the same data structures. This reduces
the number of memory operations and system calls required to gather
debugging information from the target process.
Update Makefile.pre.in to include Python/remote_debug.h in the headers
list, ensuring that changes to the remote debugging header force proper
recompilation of dependent modules and maintain build consistency across
the codebase.
Also, make the module compatible with the free threading build as an extra :)

gh-133960: Improve typing.evaluate_forward_ref (GH-133961)
As explained in GH-133960, this removes most of the behavior differences with ForwardRef.evaluate.
The remaining difference is about recursive evaluation of forwardrefs; this is practically useful
in cases where an annotation refers to a type alias that itself is string-valued.
This also improves several edge cases that were previously not handled optimally. For example,
the function now takes advantage of the partial evaluation behavior of ForwardRef.evaluate() to
evaluate more ForwardRefs in the FORWARDREF format.
This also fixes GH-133959 as a side effect, because the buggy behavior in GH-133959 derives from
evaluate_forward_ref().

This is mostly a refactor to clean things up a bit, most notably the "XI namespace" code.
Making the session opaque requires adding the following internal-only functions:
* _PyXI_NewSession()
* _PyXI_FreeSession()
* _PyXI_GetMainNamespace()

It now supports a "full" fallback to _PyFunction_GetXIData() and then `_PyPickle_GetXIData()`.
There's also room for other fallback modes if that later makes sense.

Two special methods, __buffer__ and __release_buffer__ were added to
Python 3.12 by PEP 688. The C API Type Object documentation for slots
includes `tp_as_buffer`, and sub-slots `bf_getbuffer`, `bf_releasebuffer`
but does not refer to the Python Data Model version of those. Add the
missing references.
