Fix an issue where passing invalid arguments to `os.posix_spawn[p]` functions
raised a SystemError instead of a TypeError, and allow to explicitly use `None`
for `scheduler` and `setpgroup` as specified in the docs.
Add TYPE_FROZENDICT to the marshal module.
Add C API functions:
* PyAnyDict_Check()
* PyAnyDict_CheckExact()
* PyFrozenDict_Check()
* PyFrozenDict_CheckExact()
* PyFrozenDict_New()
Add PyFrozenDict_Type C type.

Adds `prefixmatch` APIs to the re module as an alternate name for our long existing `match` APIs to help alleviate a common Python confusion for those coming from other languages regular expression libraries.
These alleviate common confusion around what "match" means as Python is different than other popular languages regex libraries in our use of the term as an API name. The original `match` names are **NOT being deprecated**. Source tooling like linters, IDEs, and LLMs could suggest using `prefixmatch` instead of match to improve code health and reduce cognitive burden of understanding the intent of code when configured for a modern minimum Python version.
See the documentation changes for a better description.
Discussions took place in the PR, in the issue, and finally at https://discuss.python.org/t/add-re-prefixmatch-deprecate-re-match/105927

Changing the values requires forking and patching, which is intentional. Simply rebuilding from source does not change the implementation enough to justify changing these values - they would still be `cpython` and compatible with existing `.pyc` files. But people who maintain forks are better served by being able to easily override these values in a place that can be forward-ported reliably.
This check is potentially problematic because it could force evaluation of
annotations unnecessarily. This doesn't trigger for builtin objects (functions,
classes, or modules) with annotations, but it could trigger for third-party objects.
The check was not particularly useful anyway, because it succeeds if ``__annotations__``
is a dict or None, so the only thing this did was guard against objects that have an
``__annotations__`` attribute that is of some other type. That doesn't seem particularly
useful, so I just removed the check.
This fixes os.link() on platforms (like Linux and OpenIndiana) where the
system link() function does not follow symlinks.
* On Linux, it now follows symlinks by default and if
follow_symlinks=True is specified.
* On Windows, it now raises error if follow_symlinks=True is passed.
* On macOS, it now raises error if follow_symlinks=False is passed and
the system linkat() function is not available at runtime.
* On other platforms, it now raises error if follow_symlinks is passed
with a value that does not match the system link() function behavior
if if the behavior is not known.

The code is still flawed, because it does not recognize class and static
methods, and the first argument is not removed from the signature of
bound methods, but at least it does not worse than in 3.13 and older.
A part of `Lib/test/test_pdb.py` was previously unable to run on WASI/Emscripten
platforms because it lacked support for `asyncio`.
In fact, these tests could be rewritten without the `asyncio` framework because
`test_pdb` tests the behavior of coroutines, which are not part of `asyncio`.
Now reliance on the availability of `asyncio` has been removed and
part of `test_pdb` that deals with coroutines working on WASI/Emscripten platforms.
* Remove `@suppress_immortalization` decorator
* Make suppression flag per-thread instead of per-interpreter
* Suppress immortalization in `eval()` to avoid refleaks in three tests
(test_datetime.test_roundtrip, test_logging.test_config8_ok, and
test_random.test_after_fork).
* frozenset() is constant, but not a singleton. When run multiple times,
the test could fail due to constant interning.
* Setting the __module__ attribute for a class now removes the
__firstlineno__ item from the type's dict.
* The _collections_abc and _pydecimal modules now completely replace the
collections.abc and decimal modules after importing them. This
allows to get the source of classes and functions defined in these
modules.
* inspect.findsource() now checks whether the first line number for a
class is out of bound.
