The implementation of __sizeof__() methods using _PyObject_SIZE() now
use an unsigned type (size_t) to compute the size, rather than a signed
type (Py_ssize_t).
Cast explicitly signed (Py_ssize_t) values to unsigned type
(Py_ssize_t).
It combines PyImport_ImportModule() and PyObject_GetAttrString()
and saves 4-6 lines of code on every use.
Add also _PyImport_GetModuleAttr() which takes Python strings as arguments.
Add new functions to pack and unpack C double (serialize and
deserialize):
* PyFloat_Pack2(), PyFloat_Pack4(), PyFloat_Pack8()
* PyFloat_Unpack2(), PyFloat_Unpack4(), PyFloat_Unpack8()
Document these functions and add unit tests.
Rename private functions and move them from the internal C API
to the public C API:
* _PyFloat_Pack2() => PyFloat_Pack2()
* _PyFloat_Pack4() => PyFloat_Pack4()
* _PyFloat_Pack8() => PyFloat_Pack8()
* _PyFloat_Unpack2() => PyFloat_Unpack2()
* _PyFloat_Unpack4() => PyFloat_Unpack4()
* _PyFloat_Unpack8() => PyFloat_Unpack8()
Replace the "unsigned char*" type with "char*" which is more common
and easy to use.
We're no longer using _Py_IDENTIFIER() (or _Py_static_string()) in any core CPython code. It is still used in a number of non-builtin stdlib modules.
The replacement is: PyUnicodeObject (not pointer) fields under _PyRuntimeState, statically initialized as part of _PyRuntime. A new _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() macro facilitates lookup of the fields (along with _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() for non-identifier strings).
https://bugs.python.org/issue46541#msg411799 explains the rationale for this change.
The core of the change is in:
* (new) Include/internal/pycore_global_strings.h - the declarations for the global strings, along with the macros
* Include/internal/pycore_runtime_init.h - added the static initializers for the global strings
* Include/internal/pycore_global_objects.h - where the struct in pycore_global_strings.h is hooked into _PyRuntimeState
* Tools/scripts/generate_global_objects.py - added generation of the global string declarations and static initializers
I've also added a --check flag to generate_global_objects.py (along with make check-global-objects) to check for unused global strings. That check is added to the PR CI config.
The remainder of this change updates the core code to use _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() instead of _Py_IDENTIFIER() and the related _Py*Id functions (likewise for _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() instead of _Py_static_string()). This includes adding a few functions where there wasn't already an alternative to _Py*Id(), replacing the _Py_Identifier * parameter with PyObject *.
The following are not changed (yet):
* stop using _Py_IDENTIFIER() in the stdlib modules
* (maybe) get rid of _Py_IDENTIFIER(), etc. entirely -- this may not be doable as at least one package on PyPI using this (private) API
* (maybe) intern the strings during runtime init

setup.py no longer defines Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE. Instead every
module defines the macro before #include "Python.h" unless
Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN is already defined.
Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN is defined for every module that is built by
Modules/Setup.
The PR also simplifies Modules/Setup. Makefile and makesetup
already define Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN and include Modules/internal
for us.

* Constructors of subclasses of some buitin classes (e.g. tuple, list,
frozenset) no longer accept arbitrary keyword arguments.
* Subclass of set can now define a __new__() method with additional
keyword parameters without overriding also __init__().
* Make functools types immutable
* Multibyte codec types are now immutable
* pyexpat.xmlparser is now immutable
* array.arrayiterator is now immutable
* _thread types are now immutable
* _csv types are now immutable
* _queue.SimpleQueue is now immutable
* mmap.mmap is now immutable
* unicodedata.UCD is now immutable
* sqlite3 types are now immutable
* _lsprof.Profiler is now immutable
* _overlapped.Overlapped is now immutable
* _operator types are now immutable
* winapi__overlapped.Overlapped is now immutable
* _lzma types are now immutable
* _bz2 types are now immutable
* _dbm.dbm and _gdbm.gdbm are now immutable
* Add Py_TPFLAGS_SEQUENCE and Py_TPFLAGS_MAPPING, add to all relevant standard builtin classes.
* Set relevant flags on collections.abc.Sequence and Mapping.
* Use flags in MATCH_SEQUENCE and MATCH_MAPPING opcodes.
* Inherit Py_TPFLAGS_SEQUENCE and Py_TPFLAGS_MAPPING.
* Add NEWS
* Remove interpreter-state map_abc and seq_abc fields.
Add pycore_moduleobject.h internal header file with static inline
functions to access module members:
* _PyModule_GetDict()
* _PyModule_GetDef()
* _PyModule_GetState()
These functions don't check at runtime if their argument has a valid
type and can be inlined even if Python is not built with LTO.
_PyType_GetModuleByDef() uses _PyModule_GetDef().
Replace PyModule_GetState() with _PyModule_GetState() in the
extension modules, considered as performance sensitive:
* _abc
* _functools
* _operator
* _pickle
* _queue
* _random
* _sre
* _struct
* _thread
* _winapi
* array
* posix
The following extensions are now built with the Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE
macro defined, to be able to use the internal pycore_moduleobject.h
header: _abc, array, _operator, _queue, _sre, _struct.
No longer use deprecated aliases to functions:
* Replace PyMem_MALLOC() with PyMem_Malloc()
* Replace PyMem_REALLOC() with PyMem_Realloc()
* Replace PyMem_FREE() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_Del() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_DEL() with PyMem_Free()
Modify also the PyMem_DEL() macro to use directly PyMem_Free().
Previously, the result could have been an instance of a subclass of int.
Also revert bpo-26202 and make attributes start, stop and step of the range
object having exact type int.
Add private function _PyNumber_Index() which preserves the old behavior
of PyNumber_Index() for performance to use it in the conversion functions
like PyLong_AsLong().
Convert Py_REFCNT() and Py_SIZE() macros to static inline functions.
They cannot be used as l-value anymore: use Py_SET_REFCNT() and
Py_SET_SIZE() to set an object reference count and size.
Replace &Py_SIZE(self) with &((PyVarObject*)self)->ob_size
in arraymodule.c.
This change is backward incompatible on purpose, to prepare the C API
for an opaque PyObject structure.
The `arraymodule`'s `b_getitem` function returns a `PyLong` converted
from `arrayobject`'s array, by dereferencing a pointer to `char`.
When the `char` type is `signed char`, the `if (x >= 128) x -= 256;` comparison/code is redundant because a `signed char` will have a value of `[-128, 127]` and so `x` will never be greater or equal than 128.
This check was indeed needed for situations where a given compiler would assume `char` being `unsigned char` which would make `x` in `[0, 256]` range.
However, the check can be removed if we cast the `ob_item` into a signed char pointer (`signed char*`) instead of `char*`.
This PR/commit introduces this change.
The final addition (cur += step) may overflow, so use size_t for "cur".
"cur" is always positive (even for negative steps), so it is safe to use
size_t here.
