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.
When integrating slots-based module creation is with the inittab,
which currently requires PyModuleDef, it would be convenient to
reuse the the same slots array for the MethodDef.
Allow slots that match what's already present in the PyModuleDef.
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.
Fix thread-safety issues when accessing frame attributes while another
thread is executing the frame:
- Add critical section to frame_repr() to prevent races when accessing
the frame's code object and line number
- Add _Py_NO_SANITIZE_THREAD to PyUnstable_InterpreterFrame_GetLasti()
to allow intentional racy reads of instr_ptr.
- Fix take_ownership() to not write to the original frame's f_executable
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.

- Group the macros
- Roughly order them to put the most important ones first
- Add expansions where it makes sense; especially if there's
an equivalent in modern C or a common compiler

Move classmethod and staticmethod initialization from __init__() to
__new__().
PyClassMethod_New() and PyStaticMethod_New() now copy attributes of
the wrapped functions: __module__, __name__, __qualname__ and
__doc__.
Change static type initialization: initialize PyStaticMethod_Type and
PyCFunction_Type earlier.
Remove test_refleaks_in_classmethod___init__() and
test_refleaks_in_staticmethod___init__() tests from test_descr since
classmethod and staticmethod have no __init__() method anymore.
