Victor Stinner f5c4b99034 PyMem_Malloc() now uses the fast pymalloc allocator
Issue #26249: PyMem_Malloc() allocator family now uses the pymalloc allocator
rather than system malloc(). Applications calling PyMem_Malloc() without
holding the GIL can now crash: use PYTHONMALLOC=debug environment variable to
validate the usage of memory allocators in your application.

Victor Stinner 34be807ca4 Add PYTHONMALLOC env var
Issue #26516:

* Add PYTHONMALLOC environment variable to set the Python memory
  allocators and/or install debug hooks.
* PyMem_SetupDebugHooks() can now also be used on Python compiled in release
  mode.
* The PYTHONMALLOCSTATS environment variable can now also be used on Python
  compiled in release mode. It now has no effect if set to an empty string.
* In debug mode, debug hooks are now also installed on Python memory allocators
  when Python is configured without pymalloc.

Martin Panter c04fb56e36 Issue #26304: Change "allows to <verb>" to "allows <verb>ing" or similar
The original form is incorrect grammar and feels awkward, even though the
meaning is clear.

Martin Panter 7dda421bff Issue #14285: Do not catch exceptions initializing any ancestor package
The previous fix only handled the case of the parent package of __main__
failing to initialize.

Also make the "Error while finding spec" formatting slightly more appealing,
and document and test that the module name must be absolute.

Brett Cannon f299abdafa Issue #23731: Implement PEP 488.
The concept of .pyo files no longer exists. Now .pyc files have an
optional `opt-` tag which specifies if any extra optimizations beyond
the peepholer were applied.

module.

Christian Heimes ad73a9cf97 Issue #16400: Add command line option for isolated mode.
-I

    Run Python in isolated mode. This also implies -E and -s. In isolated mode
    sys.path contains neither the script’s directory nor the user’s
    site-packages directory. All PYTHON* environment variables are ignored,
    too. Further restrictions may be imposed to prevent the user from
    injecting malicious code.
