The function is like Py_AtExit() but for a single interpreter. This is a companion to the atexit module's register() function, taking a C callback instead of a Python one.
We also update the _xxinterpchannels module to use _Py_AtExit(), which is the motivating case. (This is inspired by pain points felt while working on gh-101660.)
The essentially eliminates the global variable, with the associated benefits. This is also a precursor to isolating this bit of state to PyInterpreterState.
Folks that currently read _Py_RefTotal directly would have to start using _Py_GetGlobalRefTotal() instead.

This behavior is optional, because in some extreme cases it
may just make debugging harder. The tool defaults it to off,
but it is on in Makefile.pre.in.
Also note that this makes diffs to generated_cases.c.h noisier,
since whenever you insert or delete a line in bytecodes.c,
all subsequent #line directives will change.
This will keep us from adding new unsupported (i.e. non-const) C global variables, which would break interpreter isolation.
FYI, historically it is very uncommon for new global variables to get added. Furthermore, it is rare for new code to break the c-analyzer. So the check should almost always pass unnoticed.
Note that I've removed test_check_c_globals. A test wasn't a great fit conceptually and was super slow on debug builds. A CI check is a better fit.
This also resolves gh-100237.

This merges their code. They're backed by the same single HACL* static library, having them be a single module simplifies maintenance.
This should unbreak the wasm enscripten builds that currently fail due to linking in --whole-archive mode and the HACL* library appearing twice.
Long unnoticed error fixed: _sha512.SHA384Type was doubly assigned and was actually SHA512Type. Nobody depends on those internal names.
Also rename LIBHACL_ make vars to LIBHACL_SHA2_ in preperation for other future HACL things.
This builds HACL* as a library in one place.
A followup to #101707 which broke some WASM builds. This fixes 2/4 of them, but the enscripten toolchain in the others don't deduplicate linker arguments and error out. A follow-on PR will address those.
Replace the builtin hashlib implementations of SHA2-384 and SHA2-512
originally from LibTomCrypt with formally verified, side-channel resistant
code from the [HACL*](https://github.com/hacl-star/hacl-star/) project.
The builtins remain a fallback only used when OpenSSL does not provide them.
* Write output and metadata in a single run
This halves the time to run the cases generator
(most of the time goes into parsing the input).
* Declare or define opcode metadata based on NEED_OPCODE_TABLES
* Use generated metadata for stack_effect()
* compile.o depends on opcode_metadata.h
* Return -1 from _PyOpcode_num_popped/pushed for unknown opcode
Fix creating install directories in `make sharedinstall` if they exist already outside `DESTDIR`. The previous make rules assumed that the directories would be created via a dependency on a rule for `$(DESTSHARED)` that did not fire if the directory did exist outside `$(DESTDIR)`.
While technically `$(DESTDIR)` could be prepended to the rule name, moving the rules for creating directories straight into the `sharedinstall` rule seems to fit the common practices better. Since the rule explicitly checks whether the individual directories exist anyway, there seems to be no reason to rely on make determining that implicitly as well.
replacing hashlib primitives (for the non-OpenSSL case) with verified implementations from HACL*. This is the first PR in the series, and focuses specifically on SHA2-256 and SHA2-224.
This PR imports Hacl_Streaming_SHA2 into the Python tree. This is the HACL* implementation of SHA2, which combines a core implementation of SHA2 along with a layer of buffer management that allows updating the digest with any number of bytes. This supersedes the previous implementation in the tree.
@franziskuskiefer was kind enough to benchmark the changes: in addition to being verified (thus providing significant safety and security improvements), this implementation also provides a sizeable performance boost!

The changes in this PR are as follows:
- import the subset of HACL* that covers SHA2-256/224 into `Modules/_hacl`
- rewire sha256module.c to use the HACL* implementation

(These aren't used yet, but may be coming soon,
and it's easier to keep this tool the same between branches.)
Added a sanity check for all this to compile.c.

Add COMPILEALL_OPTS variable in Makefile to override compileall
options (default: -j0) in "make install". Also merge the compileall
commands into a single command building PYC files for the all
optimization levels (0, 1, 2) at once.

The global allocators were stored in 3 static global variables: _PyMem_Raw, _PyMem, and _PyObject. State for the "small block" allocator was stored in another 13. That makes a total of 16 global variables. We are moving all 16 to the _PyRuntimeState struct as part of the work for gh-81057. (If PEP 684 is accepted then we will follow up by moving them all to PyInterpreterState.)

We do the following:
* move the generated _PyUnicode_InitStaticStrings() to its own file
* move the generated _PyStaticObjects_CheckRefcnt() to its own file
* include pycore_global_objects.h in extension modules instead of pycore_runtime_init.h
These changes help us avoid including things that aren't needed.

Remove the distutils package. It was deprecated in Python 3.10 by PEP
632 "Deprecate distutils module". For projects still using distutils
and cannot be updated to something else, the setuptools project can
be installed: it still provides distutils.
* Remove Lib/distutils/ directory
* Remove test_distutils
* Remove references to distutils
* Skip test_check_c_globals and test_peg_generator since they use
distutils
This got introduced in commit 5884449539
to determine if readline is already linked against curses or tinfo in
the setup.py, which is no longer present.
The switch cases (really TARGET(opcode) macros) have been moved from ceval.c to generated_cases.c.h. That file is generated from instruction definitions in bytecodes.c (which impersonates a C file so the C code it contains can be edited without custom support in e.g. VS Code).
The code generator lives in Tools/cases_generator (it has a README.md explaining how it works). The DSL used to describe the instructions is a work in progress, described in https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/blob/main/3.12/interpreter_definition.md.
This is surely a work-in-progress. An easy next step could be auto-generating super-instructions.
**IMPORTANT: Merge Conflicts**
If you get a merge conflict for instruction implementations in ceval.c, your best bet is to port your changes to bytecodes.c. That file looks almost the same as the original cases, except instead of `TARGET(NAME)` it uses `inst(NAME)`, and the trailing `DISPATCH()` call is omitted (the code generator adds it automatically).
The test failed on a buildbot because the pointer was only 7 hex characters. To be safe,
I bumped it down to 3: 4 in case we have 32-bit platforms, and 3 in case the pointer is very small.
Relevant tests moved from test_exceptions to test_traceback to be able to
compare both implementations.
