The implementation uses 'ptr' for the name of the first parameter of
ctypes.string_at() and ctypes.wstring_at(). Align docs and docstrings
with the naming used in the implementation.

This change is part of the work on PEP-738: Adding Android as a
supported platform.
* Remove the "1.0" suffix from libpython's filename on Android, which
would prevent Gradle from packaging it into an app.
* Simplify the build command in the Makefile so that libpython always
gets given an SONAME with the `-Wl-h` argument, even if the SONAME is
identical to the actual filename.
* Disable a number of functions on Android which can be compiled and
linked against, but always fail at runtime. As a result, the native
_multiprocessing module is no longer built for Android.
* gh-115390 (bee7bb331) added some pre-determined results to the
configure script for things that can't be autodetected when
cross-compiling; this change adds Android to these where appropriate.
* Add a couple more pre-determined results for Android, and making them
cover iOS as well. This means the --enable-ipv6 configure option will
no longer be required on either platform.

If Python is built with UBSan, test_ctypes now skips test_shorts().
This change allows to run test_ctypes to check for new UBSan regression,
but the known test_shorts() undefined behavior must be fixed.
ctypes.CFUNCTYPE() and ctypes.WINFUNCTYPE() now fail to create the
type if its "_argtypes_" member contains too many arguments.
Previously, the error was only raised when calling a function.
Change also how CFUNCTYPE() and WINFUNCTYPE() handle KeyError to
prevent creating a chain of exceptions if ctypes.CFuncPtr raises an
error.
This reduces the size of the data segment by **300 KB** of the executable because if the modules are deep-frozen then the marshalled frozen data just wastes space. This was inspired by comment by @gvanrossum in https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/29118#issuecomment-958521863. Note: There is a new option `--deepfreeze-only` in `freeze_modules.py` to change this behavior, it is on be default to save disk space.

This gains 10% or more in startup time for `python -c pass` on UNIX-ish systems.
The Makefile.pre.in generating code builds on Eric's work for bpo-45020, but the .c file generator is new.
Windows version TBD.
Currently custom modules (the array set on PyImport_FrozenModules) replace all the frozen stdlib modules. That can be problematic and is unlikely to be what the user wants. This change treats the custom frozen modules as additions instead. They take precedence over all other frozen modules except for those needed to bootstrap the import system. If the "code" field of an entry in the custom array is NULL then that frozen module is treated as disabled, which allows a custom entry to disable a frozen stdlib module.
This change allows us to get rid of is_essential_frozen_module() and simplifies the logic for which frozen modules should be ignored.

Here's one more small cleanup that should have been in PR gh-28319. We eliminate stdout side-effects from importing the frozen __hello__ module, and update tests accordingly. We also move the module's source file into Lib/ from Toos/freeze/flag.py.
https://bugs.python.org/issue45019
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.
https://bugs.python.org/issue45020
There are a few things I missed in gh-27980. This is a follow-up that will make subsequent PRs cleaner. It includes fixes to tests and tools that reference the frozen modules.
https://bugs.python.org/issue45019
* 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 PR is part of PEP 657 and augments the compiler to emit ending
line numbers as well as starting and ending columns from the AST
into compiled code objects. This allows bytecodes to be correlated
to the exact source code ranges that generated them.
This information is made available through the following public APIs:
* The `co_positions` method on code objects.
* The C API function `PyCode_Addr2Location`.

These were reverted in gh-26530 (commit 17c4edc) due to refleaks.
* 2c1e258 - Compute deref offsets in compiler (gh-25152)
* b2bf2bc - Add new internal code objects fields: co_fastlocalnames and co_fastlocalkinds. (gh-26388)
This change fixes the refleaks.
https://bugs.python.org/issue43693
* Revert "bpo-43693: Compute deref offsets in compiler (gh-25152)"
This reverts commit b2bf2bc1ec.
* Revert "bpo-43693: Add new internal code objects fields: co_fastlocalnames and co_fastlocalkinds. (gh-26388)"
This reverts commit 2c1e2583fd.
These two commits are breaking the refleak buildbots.
A number of places in the code base (notably ceval.c and frameobject.c) rely on mapping variable names to indices in the frame "locals plus" array (AKA fast locals), and thus opargs. Currently the compiler indirectly encodes that information on the code object as the tuples co_varnames, co_cellvars, and co_freevars. At runtime the dependent code must calculate the proper mapping from those, which isn't ideal and impacts performance-sensitive sections. This is something we can easily address in the compiler instead.
This change addresses the situation by replacing internal use of co_varnames, etc. with a single combined tuple of names in locals-plus order, along with a minimal array mapping each to its kind (local vs. cell vs. free). These two new PyCodeObject fields, co_fastlocalnames and co_fastllocalkinds, are not exposed to Python code for now, but co_varnames, etc. are still available with the same values as before (though computed lazily).
Aside from the (mild) performance impact, there are a number of other benefits:
* there's now a clear, direct relationship between locals-plus and variables
* code that relies on the locals-plus-to-name mapping is simpler
* marshaled code objects are smaller and serialize/de-serialize faster
Also note that we can take this approach further by expanding the possible values in co_fastlocalkinds to include specific argument types (e.g. positional-only, kwargs). Doing so would allow further speed-ups in _PyEval_MakeFrameVector(), which is where args get unpacked into the locals-plus array. It would also allow us to shrink marshaled code objects even further.

"Zero cost" exception handling.
* Uses a lookup table to determine how to handle exceptions.
* Removes SETUP_FINALLY and POP_TOP block instructions, eliminating (most of) the runtime overhead of try statements.
* Reduces the size of the frame object by about 60%.
* Add length parameter to PyLineTable_InitAddressRange and doen't use sentinel values at end of table. Makes the line number table more robust.
* Update PyCodeAddressRange to match PEP 626.
