[bpo-34658](https://www.bugs.python.org/issue34658): Fix a rare interpreter unhandled exception state SystemError only
seen when using subprocess with a preexec_fn while an after_parent handler has
been registered with os.register_at_fork and the fork system call fails.
https://bugs.python.org/issue34658
Although the kernel accepts any negative value for timeout, the
documented value to block indefinitely is -1.
This commit also makes the code similar to select.poll.poll().
When subprocess.Popen() stdin= stdout= or stderr= handles are specified
and appear in pass_fds=, don't close the original fds after dup'ing them.
This implementation and unittest primarily came from @izbyshev (see the PR)

This also removes the old manual p2cread, c2pwrite, and errwrite closing logic
as inheritable flags and _close_open_fds takes care of that properly today without special treatment.
This code is within child_exec() where it is the only thread so there is no
race condition between the dup and _Py_set_inheritable_async_safe call.
Release GIL on grp.getgrnam(), grp.getgrgid(), pwd.getpwnam() and
pwd.getpwuid() if reentrant variants of these functions are available.
Patch by William Grzybowski.
* Add _testcapi.get_coreconfig() to get the _PyCoreConfig of the
interpreter
* test.pythoninfo now gets the core configuration using
_testcapi.get_coreconfig()
bpo-34485, bpo-34544: On some FreeBSD, nl_langinfo(CODESET) fails if
LC_ALL or LC_CTYPE is set to an invalid locale name. Replace
_Py_SetLocaleFromEnv(LC_CTYPE) with _Py_SetLocaleFromEnv(LC_ALL) to
initialize properly locales.
Partially revert commit 177d921c8c.
The *max* value is no longer treated as a special case in the main loop. Besides making the main loop simpler and branchless, this also lets us relax the input restriction of *vec* to contain only non-negative values.
Use the core configuration of the interpreter, rather
than using global configuration variables. For example, replace
Py_QuietFlag with core_config->quiet.
Add support for the "surrogatepass" error handler in
PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefault() and PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault()
for the UTF-8 encoding.
Changes:
* _Py_DecodeUTF8Ex() and _Py_EncodeUTF8Ex() now support the
surrogatepass error handler (_Py_ERROR_SURROGATEPASS).
* _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx() now use
the _Py_error_handler enum instead of "int surrogateescape" to pass
the error handler. These functions now return -3 if the error
handler is unknown.
* Add unit tests on _Py_DecodeLocaleEx() and _Py_EncodeLocaleEx()
in test_codecs.
* Rename get_error_handler() to _Py_GetErrorHandler() and expose it
as a private function.
* _freeze_importlib doesn't need config.filesystem_errors="strict"
workaround anymore.
Py_DecodeLocale() and Py_EncodeLocale() now use the UTF-8 encoding on
Windows if Py_LegacyWindowsFSEncodingFlag is zero.
pymain_read_conf() now sets Py_LegacyWindowsFSEncodingFlag in its
loop, but restore its value at exit.
_PyCoreConfig_Read() is now responsible to choose the filesystem
encoding and error handler. Using Py_Main(), the encoding is now
chosen even before calling Py_Initialize().
_PyCoreConfig.filesystem_encoding is now the reference, instead of
Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, for the Python filesystem encoding.
Changes:
* Add filesystem_encoding and filesystem_errors to _PyCoreConfig
* _PyCoreConfig_Read() now reads the locale encoding for the file
system encoding.
* PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault() and PyUnicode_DecodeFSDefaultAndSize()
now use the interpreter configuration rather than
Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding and Py_FileSystemDefaultEncodeErrors
global configuration variables.
* Add _Py_SetFileSystemEncoding() and _Py_ClearFileSystemEncoding()
private functions to only modify Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding and
Py_FileSystemDefaultEncodeErrors in coreconfig.c.
* _Py_CoerceLegacyLocale() now takes an int rather than
_PyCoreConfig for the warning.
On Windows, the LC_CTYPE is now set to the user preferred locale at
startup: _Py_SetLocaleFromEnv(LC_CTYPE) is now called during the
Python initialization. Previously, the LC_CTYPE locale was "C" at
startup, but changed when calling setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "") or
setlocale(LC_ALL, "").
pymain_read_conf() now also calls _Py_SetLocaleFromEnv(LC_CTYPE) to
behave as _Py_InitializeCore(). Moreover, it doesn't save/restore the
LC_ALL anymore.
On Windows, standard streams like sys.stdout now always use
surrogateescape error handler by default (ignore the locale).
* _Py_InitializeCore() now sets the LC_CTYPE locale to the user
preferred locale before checking if the C locale should be coerced
or not in _PyCoreConfig_Read().
* Fix pymain_read_conf(): remember if the C locale has been coerced
when the configuration should be read again if the encoding has
changed.
Python now gets the locale encoding with C code to initialize the encoding
of standard streams like sys.stdout. Moreover, the encoding is now
initialized to the Python codec name to get a normalized encoding name and
to ensure that the codec is loaded. The change avoids importing
_bootlocale and _locale modules at startup by default.
When the PYTHONIOENCODING environment variable only contains an encoding,
the error handler is now is now set explicitly to "strict".
Rename also get_default_standard_stream_error_handler() to
get_stdio_errors().
Reduce the buffer to format the "cpXXX" string (Windows locale encoding).
The current C implementations **crash** if the input includes a surrogate
Unicode code point, which is not possible to encode in UTF-8.
Important notes:
1. It is possible to pass a non-UTF-8 string as a separator to the
`.isoformat()` methods.
2. The pure-Python `datetime.fromisoformat()` implementation accepts
strings with a surrogate as the separator.
In `datetime.fromisoformat()`, in the special case of non-UTF-8 separators,
this implementation will take a performance hit by making a copy of the
input string and replacing the separator with 'T'.
