Work on test coverage for `PyObject_Print` made it clear that some lines can't get executed.
Simplify the function by excluding the checks for non-string types.
Also eliminate creating a temporary bytes object.
Added os.setns and os.unshare to easily switch between namespaces
on Linux.

Make sys.setprofile() and sys.settrace() functions reentrant. They
can no long fail with: RuntimeError("Cannot install a trace function
while another trace function is being installed").
Make _PyEval_SetTrace() and _PyEval_SetProfile() functions reentrant,
rather than detecting and rejecting reentrant calls. Only delete the
reference to function arguments once the new function is fully set,
when a reentrant call is safe. Call also _PySys_Audit() earlier.
Rely on the title of the linked internal page instead of putting the title. Sphinx will render with the title correctly, and this will reduce work for translators

* Add missing line break between logging bullet list items
The os module and the PyUnicode_FSDecoder() function no longer accept
bytes-like paths, like bytearray and memoryview types: only the exact
bytes type is accepted for bytes strings.
A small example of what a full date and time would look like would help a lot of developers who may not realize that they should investigate `time.h`'s `strftime`, run `man strftime`, or click through a series of docs on the python docs before they get to the actual [definition here](https://docs.python.org/3/library/datetime.html#strftime-and-strptime-format-codes) which still doesn't have an obvious copy-pastable example of "what the heck format does this thing actually expect?".

Part of #95913
Forward port of #93306, which was a backport of #93185, to address #84694
This adds the What's New entry for the removal of the subinterpreter-related env variable, build-time flag, etc. As @ericsnowcurrently was author of the original changes, I added him as a co-author to the commit.
This addition to the Python 3.11 What's New document were only made to the Python 3.11 branch during the backport process, and not added to the version in `main`. Forward-porting it ensures the docs retain these additions for the future, rather than being lost in a legacy Python versions, allows it to be be edited as part of #95913 , and avoids merge conflicts with routine back-ports of PRs touching it.
I've pulled in the addition exactly as-is with no modifications; any editing will be done in future PRs (and therefore can be reviewed and backported accordingly).
The one other such addition is forward-ported in #98344
Alas, warnings.catch_warnings() has global scope, not thread scope, so this is still not perfect, but it reduces the time during which warnings are ignored. Better solution welcome.
Change summary:
+ There is now a `gzip.READ_BUFFER_SIZE` constant that is 128KB. Other programs that read in 128KB chunks: pigz and cat. So this seems best practice among good programs. Also it is faster than 8 kb chunks.
+ a zlib._ZlibDecompressor was added. This is the _bz2.BZ2Decompressor ported to zlib. Since the zlib.Decompress object is better for in-memory decompression, the _ZlibDecompressor is hidden. It only makes sense in file decompression, and that is already implemented now in the gzip library. No need to bother the users with this.
+ The ZlibDecompressor uses the older Cpython arrange_output_buffer functions, as those are faster and more appropriate for the use case.
+ GzipFile.read has been optimized. There is no longer a `unconsumed_tail` member to write back to padded file. This is instead handled by the ZlibDecompressor itself, which has an internal buffer. `_add_read_data` has been inlined, as it was just two calls.
EDIT: While I am adding improvements anyway, I figured I could add another one-liner optimization now to the python -m gzip application. That read chunks in io.DEFAULT_BUFFER_SIZE previously, but has been updated now to use READ_BUFFER_SIZE chunks.
