Remove the following functions from the public C API:
* _PyObject_RealIsInstance()
* _PyObject_RealIsSubclass()
* _Py_add_one_to_index_F()
* _Py_add_one_to_index_C()
Move _PyObject_RealIsInstance() and _PyObject_RealIsSubclass() to the
internal C API (pycore_abstract.h) and no longer export their symbols
(in libpython).
Make _Py_add_one_to_index_F() and _Py_add_one_to_index_C() functions
static: no longer export them.
Remove _PyObject_HasLen() and _PySequence_IterSearch() functions from
the public C API: move them to the internal C API
(pycore_abstract.h).
No longer export these symbols (in libpython).
Remove also unused pycore_initconfig.h include in typeobject.c.
Remove private _PySequence_BytesToCharpArray() and
_Py_FreeCharPArray() functions from the public C API: move these
functions from Objects/abstract.c to Modules/_posixsubprocess.c.
Remove old aliases which were kept backwards compatibility with
Python 3.8:
* _PyObject_CallMethodNoArgs()
* _PyObject_CallMethodOneArg()
* _PyObject_CallOneArg()
* _PyObject_FastCallDict()
* _PyObject_Vectorcall()
* _PyObject_VectorcallMethod()
* _PyVectorcall_Function()
Update code which used these aliases to use new names.
These functions are broken by design because they discard any exceptions raised
inside, including MemoryError and KeyboardInterrupt. They should not be
used in new code.
* Replace PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT() with _PyWeakref_GET_REF().
* _sqlite/blob.c now holds a strong reference to the blob object
while calling close_blob().
* _xidregistry_find_type() now holds a strong reference to registered
while using it.
finalize_modules_clear_weaklist() now holds a strong reference to the
module longer than before: replace PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT() with
_PyWeakref_GET_REF().
* Rename proxy_checkref() to proxy_check_ref().
* proxy_check_ref() now checks the object, not the proxy.
* Most functions take PyObject* instead of PyWeakReference*.
* Remove redundant calls to PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT().
* Add table describing possible executable classes for out-of-process debuggers.
* Remove shim code object creation code as it is no longer needed.
* Make lltrace a bit more robust w.r.t. non-standard frames.
Mostly, these are changes so that we use shorter sentences and shorter paragraphs. In particular, I've tried to make the first sentence introducing each object in the typing API short and declarative.
The risk of a race with this state is relatively low, but we play it safe anyway. We do avoid using the lock in performance-sensitive cases where the risk of a race is very, very low.
The _xxsubinterpreters module was meant to only use public API. Some internal C-API usage snuck in over the last few years (e.g. gh-28969). This fixes that.
When I added the relevant condition to type_ready_set_bases() in gh-103912, I had missed that the function also sets tp_base and ob_type (if necessary). That led to problems for third-party static types.
We fix that here, by making those extra operations distinct and by adjusting the condition to be more specific.
* refcounts.dat:
* Remove Py_UNICODE functions.
* Replace Py_UNICODE argument type with wchar_t.
* _PyUnicode_ToLowercase(), _PyUnicode_ToUppercase(),
_PyUnicode_ToTitlecase() are no longer deprecated in comments.
It's no longer needed since they now use Py_UCS4 type, rather than
the deprecated Py_UNICODE type.
* gdb: Remove unused char_width() method.
Deprecate the old Py_UNICODE and PY_UNICODE_TYPE types in the C API:
use wchar_t instead.
Replace Py_UNICODE with wchar_t in multiple C files.

In gh-103912 we added tp_bases and tp_mro to each PyInterpreterState.types.builtins entry. However, doing so ignored the fact that both PyTypeObject fields are public API, and not documented as internal (as opposed to tp_subclasses). We address that here by reverting back to shared objects, making them immortal in the process.
* Support for conversion specifiers o (octal) and X (uppercase hexadecimal).
* Support for length modifiers j (intmax_t) and t (ptrdiff_t).
* Length modifiers are now applied to all integer conversions.
* Support for wchar_t C strings (%ls and %lV).
* Support for variable width and precision (*).
* Support for flag - (left alignment).
During the PEP 695 implementation at one point I made
TypeVar.__name__ return garbage, and all of test_typing passed.
So I decided to add a few more tests. In the process I discovered
a minor incompatibility from the C implementation of TypeVar:
empty constraints were returned as None instead of an empty tuple.
