When executing the BUILD_LIST opcode, steal the references from the stack,
in a manner similar to the BUILD_TUPLE opcode. Implement this by offloading
the logic to a new private API, _PyList_FromArraySteal(), that works similarly
to _PyTuple_FromArraySteal().
This way, instead of performing multiple stack pointer adjustments while the
list is being initialized, the stack is adjusted only once and a fast memory
copy operation is performed in one fell swoop.
Fixes behaviour where int (and subtypes like bool) __sizeof__ under-reports true size as it did not take into account the size 1 `ob_digit` array for the zero int.

This improves the lives of type annotation users of `float` - which type checkers implicitly treat as `int|float` because that is what most code actually wants. Before this change a `.is_integer()` method could not be assumed to exist on things annotated as `: float` due to the method not existing on both types.
* Uses a better hashing algorithm to get better dispersion and remove commutativity.
* Incorporates `co_firstlineno`, `Py_SIZE(co)`, and bytecode instructions.
* This is now the entire set of criteria used in `code_richcompare`, except for `_PyCode_ConstantKey` (which would incorporate the types of `co_consts` rather than just their values).
* move _PyRuntime.global_objects.interned to _PyRuntime.cached_objects.interned_strings (and use _Py_CACHED_OBJECT())
* rename _PyRuntime.global_objects to _PyRuntime.static_objects
(This also relates to gh-96075.)

builtins and extension module functions and methods that expect boolean values for parameters now accept any Python object rather than just a bool or int type. This is more consistent with how native Python code itself behaves.
* Add API to allow extensions to set callback function on creation and destruction of PyCodeObject

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).
* code_sizeof() now uses an unsigned type (size_t) to compute the result.
* Fix _PyObject_ComputedDictPointer(): cast _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() to
Py_ssize_t, rather than long: it's a different type on 64-bit Windows.
* Clarify that _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() uses an unsigned type (size_t).
* Change _PyDict_KeysSize() and shared_keys_usable_size() return type
from signed (Py_ssize_t) to unsigned (size_t) type.
* new_values() argument type is now unsigned (size_t).
* init_inline_values() now uses size_t rather than int for the 'i'
iterator variable.
* type.__sizeof__() implementation now uses unsigned (size_t) type.
Fix potential race condition in code patterns:
* Replace "Py_DECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_XDECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_CLEAR(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
Other changes:
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_DECREF(var)"
with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_XDECREF(var)"
with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* And remove the "old" variable.
The global allocators were stored in 3 static global variables: _PyMem_Raw, _PyMem, and _PyObject. State for the "small block" allocator was stored in another 13. That makes a total of 16 global variables. We are moving all 16 to the _PyRuntimeState struct as part of the work for gh-81057. (If PEP 684 is accepted then we will follow up by moving them all to PyInterpreterState.)
