[3.14] gh-143650: Fix importlib race condition on import failure (GH-143651) (#144662) 
gh-143650: Fix importlib race condition on import failure (GH-143651)

Fix a race condition where a thread could receive a partially-initialized
module when another thread's import fails. The race occurs when:

1. Thread 1 starts importing, adds module to sys.modules
2. Thread 2 sees the module in sys.modules via the fast path
3. Thread 1's import fails, removes module from sys.modules
4. Thread 2 returns a stale module reference not in sys.modules

The fix adds verification after the "skip lock" optimization in both Python
and C code paths to check if the module is still in sys.modules. If the
module was removed (due to import failure), we retry the import so the
caller receives the actual exception from the import failure rather than
a stale module reference.
(cherry picked from commit ac8b5b6890)
