Argument Clinic now has a partial support of the
Limited API:
* Add --limited option to clinic.c.
* Add '_testclinic_limited' extension which is built with
the limited C API version 3.13.
* For now, hardcode in clinic.py that "_testclinic_limited.c" targets
the limited C API.
No longer export _PyUnicode_FromId() internal C API function.
Change comment style to "// comment" and add comment explaining why
other functions have to be exported.
Update Tools/build/generate_token.py to update Include/internal/pycore_token.h
comments.
* Instead of calling get_identifiers_and_strings(), extract identifiers and strings from pycore_global_strings.h.
* Avoid ast.literal_eval(), it's very slow.
We tried this before with a dict and for all interned strings. That ran into problems due to interpreter isolation. However, exclusively using a per-interpreter cache caused some inconsistency that can eliminate the benefit of interning. Here we circle back to using a global cache, but only for statically allocated strings. We also use a more-basic _Py_hashtable_t for that global cache instead of a dict.
Ideally we would only have the global cache, but the optional isolation of each interpreter's allocator means that a non-static string object must not outlive its interpreter. Thus we would have to store a copy of each such interned string in the global cache, tied to the main interpreter.
Remove the "cpython/pytime.h" header file: it only contained private
functions. Move functions to the internal pycore_time.h header file.
Move tests from _testcapi to _testinternalcapi. Rename also test
methods to have the same name than tested C functions.
No longer export these functions:
* _PyTime_Add()
* _PyTime_As100Nanoseconds()
* _PyTime_FromMicrosecondsClamp()
* _PyTime_FromTimespec()
* _PyTime_FromTimeval()
* _PyTime_GetPerfCounterWithInfo()
* _PyTime_MulDiv()
This is the implementation of PEP683
Motivation:
The PR introduces the ability to immortalize instances in CPython which bypasses reference counting. Tagging objects as immortal allows up to skip certain operations when we know that the object will be around for the entire execution of the runtime.
Note that this by itself will bring a performance regression to the runtime due to the extra reference count checks. However, this brings the ability of having truly immutable objects that are useful in other contexts such as immutable data sharing between sub-interpreters.
Remove the bundled setuptools wheel from ensurepip, and stop installing setuptools in environments created by venv.

* The majority of the monitoring code is in instrumentation.c
* The new instrumentation bytecodes are in bytecodes.c
* legacy_tracing.c adapts the new API to the old sys.setrace and sys.setprofile APIs
We can revisit the options for keeping it global later, if desired. For now the approach seems quite complex, so we've gone with the simpler isolation solution in the meantime.

* Eliminate all remaining uses of Py_SIZE and Py_SET_SIZE on PyLongObject, adding asserts.
* Change layout of size/sign bits in longobject to support future addition of immortal ints and tagged medium ints.
* Add functions to hide some internals of long object, and for setting sign and digit count.
* Replace uses of IS_MEDIUM_VALUE macro with _PyLong_IsCompact().
This is part of the effort to consolidate global variables, to make them easier to manage (and make it easier to later move some of them to PyInterpreterState).
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/81057
As we consolidate global variables, we find some objects that are almost suitable to add to _PyRuntimeState.global_objects, but have some small/sneaky bit of per-interpreter state (e.g. a weakref list). We're adding PyInterpreterState.static_objects so we can move such objects there. (We'll removed the _not_used field once we've added others.)
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/81057
Up until now we had a single generated initializer macro for all the statically declared global objects in _PyRuntimeState, including several one-offs (e.g. the empty tuple). The one-offs don't need to be generated, but were because we had one big initializer. Having separate initializers for set of generated global objects allows us to generate only the ones we need to. This allows us to add initializers for one-off global objects without having to generate them.

Add _PyStaticObject_CheckRefcnt() function to make
_PyStaticObjects_CheckRefcnt() shorter. Use
_PyObject_ASSERT_FAILED_MSG() to log the object causing the fatal
error.
