* Spill the evaluation around escaping calls in the generated interpreter and JIT.
* The code generator tracks live, cached values so they can be saved to memory when needed.
* Spills the stack pointer around escaping calls, so that the exact stack is visible to the cycle GC.
Instead of surprise crashes and memory corruption, we now hang threads that attempt to re-enter the Python interpreter after Python runtime finalization has started. These are typically daemon threads (our long standing mis-feature) but could also be threads spawned by extension modules that then try to call into Python. This marks the `PyThread_exit_thread` public C API as deprecated as there is no plausible safe way to accomplish that on any supported platform in the face of things like C++ code with finalizers anywhere on a thread's stack. Doing this was the least bad option.

Currently, we only use per-thread reference counting for heap type objects and
the naming reflects that. We will extend it to a few additional types in an
upcoming change to avoid scaling bottlenecks when creating nested functions.
Rename some of the files and functions in preparation for this change.
Instead of be limited just by the size of addressable memory (2**63
bytes), Python integers are now also limited by the number of bits, so
the number of bit now always fit in a 64-bit integer.
Both limits are much larger than what might be available in practice,
so it doesn't affect users.
_PyLong_NumBits() and _PyLong_Frexp() are now always successful.
Fix a bug that can cause a crash when sub-interpreters use "basic"
single-phase extension modules. Shared objects could refer to PyGC_Head
nodes that had been freed as part of interpreter shutdown.
Use a `_PyStackRef` and defer the reference to `f_funcobj` when
possible. This avoids some reference count contention in the common case
of executing the same code object from multiple threads concurrently in
the free-threaded build.
* Detect source file encoding.
* Use the "replace" error handler even for UTF-8 (default) encoding.
* Remove the BOM.
* Fix detection of too long lines if they contain NUL.
* Return the head rather than the tail for truncated long lines.
If the generator is already cleared, then most fields in the
generator's frame are not valid other than f_executable. The invalid
fields may contain dangling pointers and should not be used.
Use a `_PyStackRef` and defer the reference to `f_executable` when
possible. This avoids some reference count contention in the common case
of executing the same code object from multiple threads concurrently in
the free-threaded build.
Setting dev_mode to 1 in an isolated configuration now enables also
faulthandler.
Moreover, setting "module_search_paths" option with
PyInitConfig_SetStrList() now sets "module_search_paths_set" to 1.
