* bpo-38234: Remove _PyPathConfig.dll_path (GH-16307)
The DLL path is not computed from any user configuration and cannot
be configured by PyConfig. Instead, add a new _Py_dll_path global variable.
Remove _PyConfig_SetPathConfig(): replaced with _PyPathConfig_Init().
Py_Initialize() now longer sets the "global path configuration",
but only initialize _Py_dll_path.
(cherry picked from commit c422167749)
* bpo-38234: Fix PyConfig_Read() when Py_SetPath() was called (GH-16298)
* If Py_SetPath() has been called, _PyConfig_InitPathConfig() now
uses its value.
* Py_Initialize() now longer copies path configuration from PyConfig
to the global path configuration (_Py_path_config).
(cherry picked from commit e267793aa4)
* bpo-38070: _Py_DumpTraceback() writes <no Python frame> (GH-16244)
When a Python thread has no frame, _Py_DumpTraceback() and
_Py_DumpTracebackThreads() now write "<no Python frame>", rather than
writing nothing.
(cherry picked from commit 8fa3e1740b)
* bpo-38070: Enhance _PyObject_Dump() (GH-16243)
_PyObject_Dump() now dumps the object address for freed objects and
objects with ob_type=NULL.
(cherry picked from commit b39afb7876)
* bpo-38070: Add _PyRuntimeState.preinitializing (GH-16245)
Add _PyRuntimeState.preinitializing field: set to 1 while
Py_PreInitialize() is running.
_PyRuntimeState: rename also pre_initialized field to preinitialized.

* bpo-38070: Py_FatalError() logs runtime state (GH-16246)
(cherry picked from commit 1ce16fb097)
* Fix a crash in comparing with float (and maybe other crashes).
* They are now never equal to strings and non-integer numbers.
* Comparison with a large number no longer raises OverflowError.
* Arbitrary exceptions no longer silenced in constructors and comparisons.
* TypeError raised in the constructor contains now the name of the type.
* Accept only ChannelID and int-like objects in channel functions.
* Accept only InterpreterId, int-like objects and str in the InterpreterId constructor.
* Accept int-like objects, not just int in interpreter related functions.

- drop TargetScopeError in favour of raising SyntaxError directly
as per the updated PEP 572
- comprehension iteration variables are explicitly local, but
named expression targets in comprehensions are nonlocal or
global. Raise SyntaxError as specified in PEP 572
- named expression targets in the outermost iterable of a
comprehension have an ambiguous target scope. Avoid resolving
that question now by raising SyntaxError. PEP 572
originally required this only for cases where the bound name
conflicts with the iteration variable in the comprehension,
but CPython can't easily restrict the exception to that case
(as it doesn't know the target variable names when visiting
the outermost iterator expression)
(cherry picked from commit 5dbe0f59b7)
PyConfig_Read() is now responsible to handle early calls to
PySys_AddXOption() and PySys_AddWarnOption().
Options added by PySys_AddXOption() are now handled the same way than
PyConfig.xoptions and command line -X options.
For example, PySys_AddXOption(L"faulthandler") enables faulthandler
as expected.

bpo-37834: Normalise handling of reparse points on Windows
* ntpath.realpath() and nt.stat() will traverse all supported reparse points (previously was mixed)
* nt.lstat() will let the OS traverse reparse points that are not name surrogates (previously would not traverse any reparse point)
* nt.[l]stat() will only set S_IFLNK for symlinks (previous behaviour)
* nt.readlink() will read destinations for symlinks and junction points only
bpo-1311: os.path.exists('nul') now returns True on Windows
* nt.stat('nul').st_mode is now S_IFCHR (previously was an error)
Add PyCode_NewEx to be used internally and set PyCode_New as a compatibility wrapper

sys._base_executable is now always defined on all platforms, and can be overridden through configuration.
Also adds test.support.PythonSymlink to encapsulate platform-specific logic for symlinking sys.executable
Many PyRun_XXX() functions like PyRun_String() were no longer
exported in libpython38.dll by mistake. Export them again to fix the
ABI compatibiliy.

PyAST_obj2mod_ex() is similar to PyAST_obj2mod() with an additional
'feature_version' parameter which is unused.

Add a new _PyCompilerFlags_INIT macro to initialize PyCompilerFlags
variables, rather than initializing cf_flags and cf_feature_version
explicitly in each variable.
(cherry picked from commit 37d66d7d4b)

It is now allowed to add new fields at the end of the PyTypeObject struct without having to allocate a dedicated compatibility flag in tp_flags.
This will reduce the risk of running out of bits in the 32-bit tp_flags value.
* bpo-22385: Support output separators in hex methods.
Also in binascii.hexlify aka b2a_hex.
The underlying implementation behind all hex generation in CPython uses the
same pystrhex.c implementation. This adds support to bytes, bytearray,
and memoryview objects.
The binascii module functions exist rather than being slated for deprecation
because they return bytes rather than requiring an intermediate step through a
str object.
This change was inspired by MicroPython which supports sep in its binascii
implementation (and does not yet support the .hex methods).

It has been documented as deprecated and to be removed in 3.8;
From a comment on another thread – which I can't find ; leave get_coro_wrapper() for now, but always return `None`.
https://bugs.python.org/issue36933
Add a new threading.excepthook() function which handles uncaught
Thread.run() exception. It can be overridden to control how uncaught
exceptions are handled.
threading.ExceptHookArgs is not documented on purpose: it should not
be used directly.
* threading.excepthook() and threading.ExceptHookArgs.
* Add _PyErr_Display(): similar to PyErr_Display(), but accept a
'file' parameter.
* Add _thread._excepthook(): C implementation of the exception hook
calling _PyErr_Display().
* Add _thread._ExceptHookArgs: structseq type.
* Add threading._invoke_excepthook_wrapper() which handles the gory
details to ensure that everything remains alive during Python
shutdown.
* Add unit tests.
