Update `bytearray` to contain a `bytes` and provide a zero-copy path to
"extract" the `bytes`. This allows making several code paths more efficient.
This does not move any codepaths to make use of this new API. The documentation
changes include common code patterns which can be made more efficient with
this API.
---
When just changing `bytearray` to contain `bytes` I ran pyperformance on a
`--with-lto --enable-optimizations --with-static-libpython` build and don't see
any major speedups or slowdowns with this; all seems to be in the noise of
my machine (Generally changes under 5% or benchmarks that don't touch
bytes/bytearray).

The previous `Py_REFCNT(x) == 1` checks can have data races in the free
threaded build. `_PyObject_IsUniquelyReferenced(x)` is a more conservative
check that is safe in the free threaded build and is identical to
`Py_REFCNT(x) == 1` in the default GIL-enabled build.
Replace PyBytes_FromStringAndSize() and _PyBytes_Resize() with the
PyBytesWriter API.
Add _PyBytesWriter_GetSize() and _PyBytesWriter_GetData() static
inline functions.
Use the new public PyBytesWriter API in:
* _PyBytes_FromHex()
* _PyBytes_FromBuffer()
* _PyBytes_FromList()
* _PyBytes_FromTuple()
* _PyBytes_FromIterator()
Add _PyBytesWriter_ResizeAndUpdatePointer() and
_PyBytesWriter_GetAllocated() helper functions.
If the error handler is used, a new bytes object is created to set as
the object attribute of UnicodeDecodeError, and that bytes object then
replaces the original data. A pointer to the decoded data will became invalid
after destroying that temporary bytes object. So we need other way to return
the first invalid escape from _PyUnicode_DecodeUnicodeEscapeInternal().
_PyBytes_DecodeEscape() does not have such issue, because it does not
use the error handlers registry, but it should be changed for compatibility
with _PyUnicode_DecodeUnicodeEscapeInternal().
As reported in #117847 and #115366, an unpaired backtick in a docstring
tends to confuse e.g. Sphinx running on subclasses of standard library
objects, and the typographic style of using a backtick as an opening
quote is no longer in favor. Convert almost all uses of the form
The variable `foo' should do xyz
to
The variable 'foo' should do xyz
and also fix up miscellaneous other unpaired backticks (extraneous /
missing characters).
No functional change is intended here other than in human-readable
docstrings.
This change gives a significant speedup, as the METH_FASTCALL calling
convention is now used. The following bytes and bytearray methods are adapted:
- count()
- find()
- index()
- rfind()
- rindex()

This keeps track of the per-thread total reference count operations in
PyThreadState in the free-threaded builds. The count is merged into the
interpreter's total when the thread exits.
Replace <ctype.h> locale dependent functions with Python "pyctype.h"
locale independent functions:
* Replace isalpha() with Py_ISALPHA().
* Replace isdigit() with Py_ISDIGIT().
* Replace isxdigit() with Py_ISXDIGIT().
* Replace tolower() with Py_TOLOWER().
Leave Modules/_sre/sre.c unchanged, it uses locale dependent
functions on purpose.
Include explicitly <ctype.h> in _decimal.c to get isascii().
Move private _PyEval functions to the internal C API
(pycore_ceval.h):
* _PyEval_GetBuiltin()
* _PyEval_GetBuiltinId()
* _PyEval_GetSwitchInterval()
* _PyEval_MakePendingCalls()
* _PyEval_SetProfile()
* _PyEval_SetSwitchInterval()
* _PyEval_SetTrace()
No longer export most of these functions.
