gh-101659: Use the Raw Allocator in the _xxinterpchannels Module (gh-103287)

Using the raw allocator for any of the global state makes sense, especially as we move to a per-interpreter obmalloc state (gh-101660).

+The above state includes the following allocations by the module:
+
+* 1 top-level mutex (to protect the rest of the state)
+* for each channel:
+   * 1 struct _channelref
+   * 1 struct _channel
+   * 0-1 struct _channel_closing
+   * 1 struct _channelends
+   * 2 struct _channelend
+   * 1 struct _channelqueue
+* for each item in each channel:
+   * 1 struct _channelitem
+   * 1 _PyCrossInterpreterData
+
+The only objects in that global state are the references held by each
+channel's queue, which are safely managed via the _PyCrossInterpreterData_*()
+API..  The module does not create any objects that are shared globally.
