We replace _PyRuntime.tstate_current with a thread-local variable. As part of this change, we add a _Py_thread_local macro in pyport.h (only for the core runtime) to smooth out the compiler differences. The main motivation here is in support of a per-interpreter GIL, but this change also provides some performance improvement opportunities.
Note that we do not provide a fallback to the thread-local, either falling back to the old tstate_current or to thread-specific storage (PyThread_tss_*()). If that proves problematic then we can circle back. I consider it unlikely, but will run the buildbots to double-check.
Also note that this does not change any of the code related to the GILState API, where it uses a thread state stored in thread-specific storage. I suspect we can combine that with _Py_tss_tstate (from here). However, that can be addressed separately and is not urgent (nor critical).
(While this change was mostly done independently, I did take some inspiration from earlier (~2020) work by @markshannon (main...markshannon:threadstate_in_tls) and @vstinner (#23976).)
The word 'dependent' is both an adjective and a noun. A 'dependant' is a British alternative spelling for the noun form. In idlelib.sidebar, 'OS-dependant' is an adjective and clearly wrong. In 'Using', 'dependant' as a noun would be acceptable in Britain, but we use American spellings in Python docs.

bpo-37222: Fix for CacheFTPHandler in urllib
A call to FTP.ntransfercmd must be followed by FTP.voidresp to clear
the "end transfer" message. Without this, the client and server get
out of sync, which will result in an error if the FTP instance is
reused to open a second URL. This scenario occurs for even the most
basic usage of CacheFTPHandler.
Reverts the patch merged as a resolution to bpo-16270 and adds a test
case for the CacheFTPHandler in test_urllib2net.py.

This is the implementation of PEP683
Motivation:
The PR introduces the ability to immortalize instances in CPython which bypasses reference counting. Tagging objects as immortal allows up to skip certain operations when we know that the object will be around for the entire execution of the runtime.
Note that this by itself will bring a performance regression to the runtime due to the extra reference count checks. However, this brings the ability of having truly immutable objects that are useful in other contexts such as immutable data sharing between sub-interpreters.

I recently added some tests to test_imp, but @warsaw is removing that file in gh-98573. The tests are worth keeping so here I'm moving them to test_import.
