Currently we freeze several modules into the runtime. For each of these modules it is essential to bootstrapping the runtime that they be frozen. Any other stdlib module that we later freeze into the runtime is not essential. We can just as well import from the .py file. This PR lets users explicitly choose which should be used, with the new "-X frozen_modules=[on|off]" CLI flag. The default is "off" for now.

In the configparser module, these have been deprecated since Python 3.2:
* the SafeConfigParser class,
* the filename property of the ParsingError class,
* the readfp method of the ConfigParser class,
Due to significant security concerns, the reuse_address parameter of
asyncio.loop.create_datagram_endpoint, deprecated in Python 3.9, is
now removed. This is because of the behavior of the socket option
SO_REUSEADDR in UDP.

Remove deprecated __getitem__ methods of xml.dom.pulldom.DOMEventStream,
wsgiref.util.FileWrapper and fileinput.FileInput, deprecated since Python 3.9.
Convert the Py_TYPE() and Py_SIZE() macros to static inline
functions. The Py_SET_TYPE() and Py_SET_SIZE() functions must now be
used to set an object type and size.
Fix PyAiter_Check to only check for the `__anext__` presense (not for
`__aiter__`). Rename `PyAiter_Check()` to `PyAIter_Check()`,
`PyObject_GetAiter()` -> `PyObject_GetAIter()`.

* Remove commented deprecation of ctypes.c_buffer.
* Remove references to ctypes.c_string which doesn't exist.
* Remove StringTestCase: it only had skipped test methods.
This sentinel value (`MISSING`) is also used as default value for the `kw_only` parameter introduced in Python 3.10. It's cleaner to simply omit the usage here.

open(), io.open(), codecs.open() and fileinput.FileInput no longer
accept "U" ("universal newline") in the file mode. This flag was
deprecated since Python 3.3.
The binhex module, deprecated in Python 3.9, is now removed. The
following binascii functions, deprecated in Python 3.9, are now also
removed:
* a2b_hqx(), b2a_hqx();
* rlecode_hqx(), rledecode_hqx().
The binascii.crc_hqx() function remains available.
Frozen modules must be added to several files in order to work properly. Before this change this had to be done manually. Here we add a tool to generate the relevant lines in those files instead. This helps us avoid mistakes and omissions.
