This falls into the category of keep-allocation-and-initialization separate. It also allows us to use _PyEval_InitState() safely in functions that return void.

* Make generator, coroutine and async gen structs all the same size.
* Store interpreter frame in generator (and coroutine). Reduces the number of allocations neeeded for a generator from two to one.
The getpath.py file is frozen at build time and executed as code over a namespace. It is never imported, nor is it meant to be importable or reusable. However, it should be easier to read, modify, and patch than the previous code.
This commit attempts to preserve every previously tested quirk, but these may be changed in the future to better align platforms.
Rename PyConfig.no_debug_ranges to PyConfig.code_debug_ranges and
invert the value.
Document -X no_debug_ranges and PYTHONNODEBUGRANGES env var in
PyConfig.code_debug_ranges documentation.
* Split exit paths into exceptional and non-exceptional.
* Move exit tracing code to individual bytecodes.
* Wrap all trace entry and exit events in macros to make them clearer and easier to enhance.
* Move return sequence into RETURN_VALUE, YIELD_VALUE and YIELD_FROM. Distinguish between normal trace events and dtrace events.
The following internal macros can not longer be used as l-value:
* asdl_seq_GET()
* asdl_seq_GET_UNTYPED()
* asdl_seq_LEN()
They are modified to use the _Py_RVALUE() macro.
Add a new _Py_RVALUE() macro to prevent using an expression as an
l-value.
Replace a "(void)" cast with the _Py_RVALUE() macro in the following
macros:
* PyCell_SET()
* PyList_SET_ITEM()
* PyTuple_SET_ITEM()
* _PyGCHead_SET_FINALIZED()
* _PyGCHead_SET_NEXT()
* asdl_seq_SET()
* asdl_seq_SET_UNTYPED()
Add also parentheses around macro arguments in PyCell_SET() and
PyTuple_SET_ITEM() macros.
* Make internal APIs that take PyFrameConstructor take a PyFunctionObject instead.
* Add reference to function to frame, borrow references to builtins and globals.
* Add COPY_FREE_VARS instruction to allow specialization of calls to inner functions.
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.

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.

The recently added PyConfig.stdlib_dir was being set with ".." entries. When __file__ was added for from modules this caused a problem on out-of-tree builds. This PR fixes that by normalizing "stdlib_dir" when it is calculated in getpath.c.

Freelists for object structs can now be disabled. A new ``configure``
option ``--without-freelists`` can be used to disable all freelists
except empty tuple singleton. Internal Py*_MAXFREELIST macros can now
be defined as 0 without causing compiler warnings and segfaults.

Also, reword the What's New messages: this doesn't change the limited API, it only brings the Py_LIMITED_API macro closer to the ideal of only allowing the limited API.
Automerge-Triggered-By: GH:encukou
The Python 3.11 limited C API no longer includes stdlib.h, stdio.h,
string.h and errno.h.
* Exclude Py_MEMCPY() from Python 3.11 limited C API.
* xxlimited C extension is now built with Python 3.11 limited C API.
Move Include/longobject.h non-limited API to a new
Include/cpython/longobject.h header file.
Move the following definitions to the internal C API:
* _PyLong_DigitValue
* _PyLong_FormatAdvancedWriter()
* _PyLong_FormatWriter()
Split header files to move the non-limited API to Include/cpython/:
* Include/warnings.h => Include/cpython/warnings.h
* Include/weakrefobject.h => Include/cpython/weakrefobject.h
Exclude PyWeakref_GET_OBJECT() from the limited C API. It never
worked since the PyWeakReference structure is opaque in the limited C
API.
Move _PyWarnings_Init() and _PyErr_WarnUnawaitedCoroutine() to the
internal C API.
The default was "off". Switching it to "on" means users get the benefit of frozen stdlib modules without having to do anything. There's a special-case for running-in-source-tree, so contributors don't get surprised when their stdlib changes don't get used.

Remove fallbacks for missing round(), copysign() and hypot() in
Python/pymath.c. Python now requires these functions to build.
These fallbacks were needed on Visual Studio 2012 and older. They are
no longer needed since Visual Stuido 2013. Python is now built with
Visual Studio 2017 or newer since Python 3.6.
Convert the result of macros setting variables to void to avoid risks
of misusing them:
* _PyGCHead_SET_NEXT()
* asdl_seq_SET()
* asdl_seq_SET_UNTYPED()
Add PyThreadState_EnterTracing() and PyThreadState_LeaveTracing()
functions to the limited C API to suspend and resume tracing and
profiling.
Add an unit test on the PyThreadState C API to _testcapi.
Add also internal _PyThreadState_DisableTracing() and
_PyThreadState_ResetTracing().
Rename Include/namespaceobject.h to
Include/internal/pycore_namespace.h.
The _testmultiphase extension is now built with the
Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro defined to access _PyNamespace_Type.
object.c: remove unused "pycore_context.h" include.
Move classobject.h, context.h, genobject.h and longintrepr.h header
files from Include/ to Include/cpython/.
Remove redundant "#ifndef Py_LIMITED_API" in context.h.
Remove explicit #include "longintrepr.h" in C files. It's not needed,
Python.h already includes it.
Remove two functions from the limited C API:
* PyMarshal_WriteLongToFile()
* PyMarshal_WriteObjectToFile()
The PEP 384 excludes functions expecting "FILE*" from the stable ABI.
Remove also the Py_MARSHAL_VERSION macro from the limited C API.
* Move _PyObject_VectorcallTstate() and _PyObject_FastCallTstate() to
pycore_call.h (internal C API).
* Convert PyObject_CallOneArg(), PyObject_Vectorcall(),
_PyObject_FastCall() and PyVectorcall_Function() static inline
functions to regular functions.
* Add _PyVectorcall_FunctionInline() static inline function.
* PyObject_Vectorcall(), _PyObject_FastCall(), and
PyObject_CallOneArg() now call _PyThreadState_GET() rather
than PyThreadState_Get().
They support now splitting escape sequences between input chunks.
Add the third parameter "final" in codecs.raw_unicode_escape_decode().

Add the third parameter "final" in codecs.unicode_escape_decode().
It is True by default to match the former behavior.
Building Python now requires a C99 <math.h> header file providing
isinf(), isnan() and isfinite() functions.
Remove the Py_FORCE_DOUBLE() macro. It was used by the
Py_IS_INFINITY() macro.
Changes:
* Remove Py_IS_NAN(), Py_IS_INFINITY() and Py_IS_FINITE()
in PC/pyconfig.h.
* Remove the _Py_force_double() function.
* configure no longer checks if math.h defines isinf(), isnan() and
isfinite().
Move Include/pystrhex.h to Include/internal/pycore_strhex.h.
The header file only contains private functions.
The following C extensions are now built with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE
macro defined to get access to the internal C API:
* _blake2
* _hashopenssl
* _md5
* _sha1
* _sha3
* _ssl
* binascii
* Never change types' cached keys. It could invalidate inline attribute objects.
* Lazily create object dictionaries.
* Update specialization of LOAD/STORE_ATTR.
* Don't update shared keys version for deletion of value.
* Update gdb support to handle instance values.
* Rename SPLIT_KEYS opcodes to INSTANCE_VALUE.
Redefining the PyThreadState_GET() macro in pycore_pystate.h is
useless since it doesn't affect files not including it. Either use
_PyThreadState_GET() directly, or don't use pycore_pystate.h internal
C API. For example, the _testcapi extension don't use the internal C
API, but use the public PyThreadState_Get() function instead.
Replace PyThreadState_Get() with _PyThreadState_GET(). The
_PyThreadState_GET() macro is more efficient than PyThreadState_Get()
and PyThreadState_GET() function calls which call fail with a fatal
Python error.
posixmodule.c and _ctypes extension now include <windows.h> before
pycore header files (like pycore_call.h).
_PyTraceback_Add() now uses _PyErr_Fetch()/_PyErr_Restore() instead
of PyErr_Fetch()/PyErr_Restore().
The _decimal and _xxsubinterpreters extensions are now built with the
Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro defined to get access to the internal C
API.
* Move _PyObject_CallNoArgs() to pycore_call.h (internal C API).
* _ssl, _sqlite and _testcapi extensions now call the public
PyObject_CallNoArgs() function, rather than _PyObject_CallNoArgs().
* _lsprof extension is now built with Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro
defined to get access to internal _PyObject_CallNoArgs().
Fix typo in the private _PyObject_CallNoArg() function name: rename
it to _PyObject_CallNoArgs() to be consistent with the public
function PyObject_CallNoArgs().
Add _PyVectorcall_Call() helper function.
Add "assert(PyCallable_Check(callable));" to PyVectorcall_Call(),
similar check than PyVectorcall_Function().
Move definitions of copysign(), round(), hypot(), fmod(), etc. from
pymath.h to pycore_pymath.h. These functions are not exported by
libpython and so must not be part of the C API.
Move the following macros , to pycore_pymath.h (internal C API):
* _Py_SET_53BIT_PRECISION_HEADER
* _Py_SET_53BIT_PRECISION_START
* _Py_SET_53BIT_PRECISION_END
PEP 7: add braces to if and "do { ... } while (0)" in these macros.
Move also _Py_get_387controlword() and _Py_set_387controlword()
definitions to pycore_pymath.h. These functions are no longer
exported.
pystrtod.c now includes pycore_pymath.h.
* Move limits.h include and UCHAR_MAX checks to pyport.h.
* Move sanitizers macros to pyport.h.
* Remove comment about <assert.h>: C extensions are built with NDEBUG
automatically by Python.
Remove the following math macros using the errno variable:
* Py_ADJUST_ERANGE1()
* Py_ADJUST_ERANGE2()
* Py_OVERFLOWED()
* Py_SET_ERANGE_IF_OVERFLOW()
* Py_SET_ERRNO_ON_MATH_ERROR()
Create pycore_pymath.h internal header file.
Rename Py_ADJUST_ERANGE1() and Py_ADJUST_ERANGE2() to
_Py_ADJUST_ERANGE1() and _Py_ADJUST_ERANGE2(), and convert these
macros to static inline functions.
Move the following macros to pycore_pymath.h:
* _Py_IntegralTypeSigned()
* _Py_IntegralTypeMax()
* _Py_IntegralTypeMin()
* _Py_InIntegralTypeRange()
In the list of generated frozen modules at the top of Tools/scripts/freeze_modules.py, you will find that some of the modules have a different name than the module (or .py file) that is actually frozen. Let's call each case an "alias". Aliases do not come into play until we get to the (generated) list of modules in Python/frozen.c. (The tool for freezing modules, Programs/_freeze_module, is only concerned with the source file, not the module it will be used for.)
Knowledge of which frozen modules are aliases (and the identity of the original module) normally isn't important. However, this information is valuable when we go to set __file__ on frozen stdlib modules. This change updates Tools/scripts/freeze_modules.py to map aliases to the original module name (or None if not a stdlib module) in Python/frozen.c. We also add a helper function in Python/import.c to look up a frozen module's alias and add the result of that function to the frozen info returned from find_frozen().

Add a private C API for deadlines: add _PyDeadline_Init() and
_PyDeadline_Get() functions.
* Add _PyTime_Add() and _PyTime_Mul() functions which compute t1+t2
and t1*t2 and clamp the result on overflow.
* _PyTime_MulDiv() now uses _PyTime_Add() and _PyTime_Mul().
WaitForSingleObject() accepts timeout in milliseconds in the range
[0; 0xFFFFFFFE] (DWORD type). INFINITE value (0xFFFFFFFF) means no
timeout. 0xFFFFFFFE milliseconds is around 49.7 days.
PY_TIMEOUT_MAX is (0xFFFFFFFE * 1000) milliseconds on Windows, around
49.7 days.
Partially revert commit 37b8294d62.
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() now clamps the timeout into the
[_PyTime_MIN; _PyTime_MAX] range (_PyTime_t type) if it is too large,
rather than calling Py_FatalError() which aborts the process.
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() no longer uses
MICROSECONDS_TO_TIMESPEC() to compute sem_timedwait() argument, but
_PyTime_GetSystemClock() and _PyTime_AsTimespec_truncate().
Fix _thread.TIMEOUT_MAX value on Windows: the maximum timeout is
0x7FFFFFFF milliseconds (around 24.9 days), not 0xFFFFFFFF
milliseconds (around 49.7 days).
Set PY_TIMEOUT_MAX to 0x7FFFFFFF milliseconds, rather than 0xFFFFFFFF
milliseconds.
Fix PY_TIMEOUT_MAX overflow test: replace (us >= PY_TIMEOUT_MAX) with
(us > PY_TIMEOUT_MAX).
Add pytime_add() and pytime_mul() functions to pytime.c to compute
t+t2 and t*k with clamping to [_PyTime_MIN; _PyTime_MAX].
Fix pytime.h: _PyTime_FromTimeval() is not implemented on Windows.
Add the _PyTime_AsTimespec_clamp() function: similar to
_PyTime_AsTimespec(), but clamp to _PyTime_t min/max and don't raise
an exception.
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() now uses _PyTime_AsTimespec_clamp() to
remove the Py_UNREACHABLE() code path.
* Add _PyTime_AsTime_t() function.
* Add PY_TIME_T_MIN and PY_TIME_T_MAX constants.
* Replace _PyTime_AsTimeval_noraise() with _PyTime_AsTimeval_clamp().
* Add pytime_divide_round_up() function.
* Fix integer overflow in pytime_divide().
* Add pytime_divmod() function.

Add the Py_ALWAYS_INLINE macro to ask the compiler to always inline a
static inline function. The compiler can ignore it and decides to not
inline the function.
Refactor pytime.c:
* Add pytime_from_nanoseconds() and pytime_as_nanoseconds(),
and use explicitly these functions
* Add two empty lines between functions
* PEP 7: add braces { ... }
* C99: declare variables where they are set
* Rename private functions to lowercase
* Rename error_time_t_overflow() to pytime_time_t_overflow()
* Rename win_perf_counter_frequency() to py_win_perf_counter_frequency()
* py_get_monotonic_clock(): add an assertion to detect overflow when
mach_absolute_time() unsigned uint64_t is casted to _PyTime_t
(signed int64_t).
_testcapi: use _PyTime_FromNanoseconds().
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.

Places the locals between the specials and stack. This is the more "natural" layout for a C struct, makes the code simpler and gives a slight speedup (~1%)
* Generalize cache names for LOAD_ATTR to allow store and delete specializations.
* Factor out specialization of attribute dictionary access.
* Specialize STORE_ATTR.
* Convert "specials" array to InterpreterFrame struct, adding f_lasti, f_state and other non-debug FrameObject fields to it.
* Refactor, calls pushing the call to the interpreter upward toward _PyEval_Vector.
* Compute f_back when on thread stack, only filling in value when frame object outlives stack invocation.
* Move ownership of InterpreterFrame in generator from frame object to generator object.
* Do not create frame objects for Python calls.
* Do not create frame objects for generators.
* Remove code that checks Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VERSION_TAG
The field is always present in the type struct, as explained
in the added comment.
* Remove Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_AM_SEND
The flag is not needed, and since it was added in 3.10 it can be removed now.

Add an internal _PyType_AllocNoTrack() function to allocate an object
without tracking it in the GC.
Modify dict_new() to use _PyType_AllocNoTrack(): dict subclasses are
now only tracked once all PyDictObject members are initialized.
Calling _PyObject_GC_UNTRACK() is no longer needed for the dict type.
Similar change in tuple_subtype_new() for tuple subclasses.
Replace tuple_gc_track() with _PyObject_GC_TRACK().
Remove 4 C API private trashcan functions which were only kept for
the backward compatibility of the stable ABI with Python 3.8 and
older, since the trashcan API was not usable with the limited C API
on Python 3.8 and older. The trashcan API was excluded from the
limited C API in Python 3.9.
Removed functions:
* _PyTrash_deposit_object()
* _PyTrash_destroy_chain()
* _PyTrash_thread_deposit_object()
* _PyTrash_thread_destroy_chain()
The trashcan C API was never usable with the limited C API, since old
trashcan macros accessed directly PyThreadState members like
"_tstate->trash_delete_nesting", whereas the PyThreadState structure
is opaque in the limited C API.
Exclude also the PyTrash_UNWIND_LEVEL constant from the C API.
The trashcan C API was modified in Python 3.9 by commit
38965ec541 and in Python 3.10 by commit
ed1a5a5bac to hide implementation
details.
* Specialize obj.__class__ with LOAD_ATTR_SLOT
* Specialize instance attribute lookup with attribute on class, provided attribute on class is not an overriding descriptor.
* Add stat for how many times the unquickened instruction has executed.
Currently, if an arg value escapes (into the closure for an inner function) we end up allocating two indices in the fast locals even though only one gets used. Additionally, using the lower index would be better in some cases, such as with no-arg `super()`. To address this, we update the compiler to fix the offsets so each variable only gets one "fast local". As a consequence, now some cell offsets are interspersed with the locals (only when an arg escapes to an inner function).
https://bugs.python.org/issue43693
* Specialize LOAD_ATTR with LOAD_ATTR_SLOT and LOAD_ATTR_SPLIT_KEYS
* Move dict-common.h to internal/pycore_dict.h
* Add LOAD_ATTR_WITH_HINT specialized opcode.
* Quicken in function if loopy
* Specialize LOAD_ATTR for module attributes.
* Add specialization stats
This was reverted in GH-26596 (commit 6d518bb) due to some bad memory accesses.
* Add the MAKE_CELL opcode. (gh-26396)
The memory accesses have been fixed.
https://bugs.python.org/issue43693
The plan is to eventually make PyCodeObject opaque in the public C-API, with the full struct moved to Include/internal/pycore_code.h. _PyLocalsPlusKinds and _PyLocalsPlusKind started off there but were needed on PyCodeObject, hence the duplication. This led to warnings with some compilers. (Apparently it does not trigger a warning on my install of GCC.)
This change eliminates the superfluous typedef.

These two commits are breaking the refleak buildbots.
Convert the Py_TYPE() and Py_SIZE() macros to static inline
functions. The Py_SET_TYPE() and Py_SET_SIZE() functions must now be
used to set an object type and size.
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.
https://bugs.python.org/issue43693
* Move up the comment about fields using in hashing/comparision.
* Group the fields more clearly.
* Add co_ncellvars and co_nfreevars.
* Raise ValueError if nlocals != len(varnames), rather than aborting.
Py_FrozenMain was added to the Limited C API in [bpo-42591]() (3.10.0a4);
but to fix that issue it would be enough to add it to the regular C API.
The function is undocumented, tests were added very recently ([bpo-44131]()),
and most importantly, it is not present in all builds of Python, as
the linker sometimes omits it as unused.
It should be added back when these issues are fixed.
Note that this does not affect Python's regular C API.
When the parser does a second pass to check for errors, these rules can
have some small side-effects as they may advance the parser more than
the point reached in the first pass. This can cause the tokenizer to ask
for extra tokens in interactive mode causing the tokenizer to show the
prompt instead of failing instantly.
To avoid this, add a new mode to the tokenizer that is activated in the
second pass and deactivates asking for new tokens when the interactive
line is finished. As the parsing should have reached the last line in
the first pass, the second pass should not need to ask for more tokens.
Fix a crash at Python exit when a deallocator function removes the
last strong reference to a heap type.
Don't read type memory after calling basedealloc() since
basedealloc() can deallocate the type and free its memory.
_PyMem_IsPtrFreed() argument is now constant.
* Remove 'zombie' frames. We won't need them once we are allocating fixed-size frames.
* Add co_nlocalplus field to code object to avoid recomputing size of locals + frees + cells.
* Move locals, cells and freevars out of frame object into separate memory buffer.
* Use per-threadstate allocated memory chunks for local variables.
* Move globals and builtins from frame object to per-thread stack.
* Move (slow) locals frame object to per-thread stack.
* Move internal frame functions to internal header.
Deprecate the following functions to configure the Python
initialization:
* PySys_AddWarnOption()
* PySys_AddWarnOptionUnicode()
* PySys_AddXOption()
* PySys_HasWarnOptions()
* Py_SetPath()
* Py_SetProgramName()
* Py_SetPythonHome()
* Py_SetStandardStreamEncoding()
* _Py_SetProgramFullPath()
Use the new PyConfig API of the Python Initialization Configuration
instead (PEP 587).
- Reformat the C API and ABI Versioning page (and extend/clarify a bit)
- Rewrite the stable ABI docs into a general text on C API Compatibility

"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 a new Py_TPFLAGS_DISALLOW_INSTANTIATION type flag to disallow
creating type instances: set tp_new to NULL and don't create the
"__new__" key in the type dictionary.
The flag is set automatically on static types if tp_base is NULL or
&PyBaseObject_Type and tp_new is NULL.
Use the flag on the following types:
* _curses.ncurses_version type
* _curses_panel.panel
* _tkinter.Tcl_Obj
* _tkinter.tkapp
* _tkinter.tktimertoken
* _xxsubinterpretersmodule.ChannelID
* sys.flags type
* sys.getwindowsversion() type
* sys.version_info type
Update MyStr example in the C API documentation to use
Py_TPFLAGS_DISALLOW_INSTANTIATION.
Add _PyStructSequence_InitType() function to create a structseq type
with the Py_TPFLAGS_DISALLOW_INSTANTIATION flag set.
type_new() calls _PyType_CheckConsistency() at exit.
* 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.
Accessing the following attributes will now fire PEP 578 style audit hooks as ("object.__getattr__", obj, name):
* PyTracebackObject: tb_frame
* PyFrameObject: f_code
* PyGenObject: gi_code, gi_frame
* PyCoroObject: cr_code, cr_frame
* PyAsyncGenObject: ag_code, ag_frame
Add an AUDIT_READ attribute flag aliased to READ_RESTRICTED.
Update obsolete flag documentation.
* 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.
