On a Python built in debug mode, Py_DECREF() now calls
_Py_NegativeRefcount() if the object is a dangling pointer to
deallocated memory: memory filled with 0xDD "dead byte" by the debug
hook on memory allocators. The fix is to check the reference count
*before* checking for _Py_IsImmortal().
Add test_decref_freed_object() to test_capi.test_misc.
This feature is off by default via code but on by default via the CLI. The `.gitignore` file contains `*` which causes the entire directory to be ignored.

libregrtest now decodes stdout of test worker processes with the
"backslashreplace" error handler to log corrupted stdout, instead of
failing with an error and not logging the stdout.
Builtin functions and methods that have non-representable signatures today
will have representable signatures yesterday, and they will become unusable
for testing this feature.
So we need to add special functions and methods to the _testcapi module
that always have non-representable signatures.
Fix test_gdb on Python built with LLVM clang 16 on Linux ppc64le (ex:
Fedora 38). Search patterns in gdb "bt" command output to detect
when gdb fails to retrieve the traceback. For example, skip a test if
"Backtrace stopped: frame did not save the PC" is found.
The test now calls free_tool_id() so it can be run multiple times in
the same process. For example, the following command no longer fails:
python -m test test_monitoring -R 3:3
On WASI platform, get_temp_dir() should behave differently since the
parent process is a WASI process and uses a different get_temp_dir()
path.
Fix also WorkerThread._runtest(): don't read JSON file if the worker
process exit code is non-zero.
On Emscripten and WASI, or if --python command line is used,
libregrtest now writes JSON into stdout, instead of using a name
file.
* Add JsonFileType.STDOUT.
* Remove JsonFileType.FILENAME.
* test.pythoninfo logs environment variables related to
cross-compilation and running Python on Emscripten/WASI.
On Emscripten and WASI platforms, or if --python command line option
is used, libregrtest now uses a filename for the JSON file.
Emscripten and WASI buildbot workers run the main test process with a
different Python (Linux) which spawns Emscripten/WASI processes using
the command specified in --python command line option. Passing a file
descriptor from the parent process to the child process doesn't work
in this case.
* Add JsonFile and JsonFileType classes
* Add RunTests.json_file_use_filename() method.
* Add a test in test_regrtest on the --python command line option.
* test_regrtest: add parallel=False parameter.
* Split long RunWorkers._runtest() function into sub-functions.
Fix Emscripten and WASI: start the test worker process in the Python
source code directory, where 'python.js' and 'python.wasm' can be
found. Then worker_process() changes to a temporary directory created
to run tests.
* create_worker_process() uses os_helper.SAVEDCWD as cwd.
* worker_process() uses get_temp_dir() as the parent directory for
get_work_dir().
* Don't use plural but singual for "test" in "Run 1 test ..."
message.
* Remove unused imports.
* Add WORK_DIR_PREFIX and WORKER_WORK_DIR_PREFIX constants.
Don't spawn more threads than the number of jobs: these worker
threads would never get anything to do.
* Add the number of tests in "Run ... tests in ..." message.
* Add RunTests.get_jobs() method.
* Add plural() function.
* count() uses f-string.
libregrtest now calls random.seed() before running each test file
when -r/--randomize command line option is used. Moreover, it's also
called in worker processes. It should help to make tests more
deterministic. Previously, it was only called once in the main
process before running all test files and it was not called in worker
processes.
* Convert some f-strings to regular strings in test_regrtest when
f-string is not needed.
* Remove unused all_methods variable from test_regrtest.
* Add RunTests members are now mandatory.
On Windows, skip the test if the current working directory and the
Python source code directory have different mount drives. It happens
if the temporary directory is on a different mount drive than the
Python source code.
Fix test_os.test_access_denied() when the TEMP environment variable
is equal to the current working directory. Run the test using a
different filename, since self.fname already exists in this case.
test_asyncio and test_compileall now clean up multiprocessing by
calling multiprocessing _cleanup_tests(): explicitly clean up
resources and stop background processes like the resource tracker.
