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
* Add/refine cross references to items in other lang changes section
* Unify context manager exception changes into single non-repetitive item
* More clearly describe the intent and consequences of the -P option
* Apply minor clarifications & copyedits to rest of section
* Tweak the formatting of module references

The previous wording of this entry suggests that CPython
won't work if optional compiler features are enabled.
That's not the case. The change is that we require C11 rather
than C89.
Note that PEP 7 does say "Python 3.11 and newer versions use C11
without optional features." It is correct there: that's
not a guide for users who compile Python, but for CPython devs
who must avoid the features.
