Previously, the main interpreter was allocated on the heap during runtime initialization. Here we instead embed it into _PyRuntimeState, which means it is statically allocated as part of the _PyRuntime global. The same goes for the initial thread state (of each interpreter, including the main one). Consequently there are fewer allocations during runtime/interpreter init, fewer possible failures, and better memory locality.
FYI, this also helps efforts to consolidate globals, which in turns helps work on subinterpreter isolation.

The empty bytes object (b'') and the 256 one-character bytes objects were allocated at runtime init. Now we statically allocate and initialize them.

Move almost all private functions of Include/cpython/fileutils.h to
the internal C API Include/internal/pycore_fileutils.h.
Only keep _Py_fopen_obj() in Include/cpython/fileutils.h, since it's
used by _testcapi which must not use the internal C API.
Move EncodeLocaleEx() and DecodeLocaleEx() functions from _testcapi
to _testinternalcapi, since the C API moved to the internal C API.
This reverts commit ea251806b8.
Keep "assert(interned == NULL);" in _PyUnicode_Fini(), but only for
the main interpreter.
Keep _PyUnicode_ClearInterned() changes avoiding the creation of a
temporary Python list object.
* Do not PUSH/POP traceback or type to the stack as part of exc_info
* Remove exc_traceback and exc_type from _PyErr_StackItem
* Add to what's new, because this change breaks things like Cython
The array of small PyLong objects has been statically declared. Here I also statically initialize them. Consequently they are no longer initialized dynamically during runtime init.
I've also moved them under a new sub-struct in _PyRuntimeState, in preparation for static allocation and initialization of other global objects.

This change is strictly renames and moving code around. It helps in the following ways:
* ensures type-related init functions focus strictly on one of the three aspects (state, objects, types)
* passes in PyInterpreterState * to all those functions, simplifying work on moving types/objects/state to the interpreter
* consistent naming conventions help make what's going on more clear
* keeping API related to a type in the corresponding header file makes it more obvious where to look for it

Previously, basic initialization of PyInterprterState happened in PyInterpreterState_New() (along with allocation and adding the new interpreter to the runtime state). This prevented us from initializing interpreter states that were allocated separately (e.g. statically or in a free list). We've addressed that here by factoring out a separate function just for initialization. We've done the same for PyThreadState. _PyRuntimeState was sorted out when we added it since _PyRuntime is statically allocated. However, here we update the existing init code to line up with the functions for PyInterpreterState and PyThreadState.

PyInterpreterState_Main() is a plain function exposed in the public C-API. For internal usage we can take the more efficient approach in this PR.
https://bugs.python.org/issue46008
This simplifies new_threadstate(). We also rename _PyThreadState_Init() to _PyThreadState_SetCurrent() to reflect what it actually does.
https://bugs.python.org/issue46008
This parallels _PyRuntimeState.interpreters. Doing this helps make it more clear what part of PyInterpreterState relates to its threads.
https://bugs.python.org/issue46008
This falls into the category of keep-allocation-and-initialization separate. It also allows us to use _PyEval_InitState() safely in functions that return void.

* Make generator, coroutine and async gen structs all the same size.
* Store interpreter frame in generator (and coroutine). Reduces the number of allocations neeeded for a generator from two to one.
The getpath.py file is frozen at build time and executed as code over a namespace. It is never imported, nor is it meant to be importable or reusable. However, it should be easier to read, modify, and patch than the previous code.
This commit attempts to preserve every previously tested quirk, but these may be changed in the future to better align platforms.
* Split exit paths into exceptional and non-exceptional.
* Move exit tracing code to individual bytecodes.
* Wrap all trace entry and exit events in macros to make them clearer and easier to enhance.
* Move return sequence into RETURN_VALUE, YIELD_VALUE and YIELD_FROM. Distinguish between normal trace events and dtrace events.
The following internal macros can not longer be used as l-value:
* asdl_seq_GET()
* asdl_seq_GET_UNTYPED()
* asdl_seq_LEN()
They are modified to use the _Py_RVALUE() macro.
Add a new _Py_RVALUE() macro to prevent using an expression as an
l-value.
Replace a "(void)" cast with the _Py_RVALUE() macro in the following
macros:
* PyCell_SET()
* PyList_SET_ITEM()
* PyTuple_SET_ITEM()
* _PyGCHead_SET_FINALIZED()
* _PyGCHead_SET_NEXT()
* asdl_seq_SET()
* asdl_seq_SET_UNTYPED()
Add also parentheses around macro arguments in PyCell_SET() and
PyTuple_SET_ITEM() macros.
* Make internal APIs that take PyFrameConstructor take a PyFunctionObject instead.
* Add reference to function to frame, borrow references to builtins and globals.
* Add COPY_FREE_VARS instruction to allow specialization of calls to inner functions.
Currently custom modules (the array set on PyImport_FrozenModules) replace all the frozen stdlib modules. That can be problematic and is unlikely to be what the user wants. This change treats the custom frozen modules as additions instead. They take precedence over all other frozen modules except for those needed to bootstrap the import system. If the "code" field of an entry in the custom array is NULL then that frozen module is treated as disabled, which allows a custom entry to disable a frozen stdlib module.
This change allows us to get rid of is_essential_frozen_module() and simplifies the logic for which frozen modules should be ignored.

The recently added PyConfig.stdlib_dir was being set with ".." entries. When __file__ was added for from modules this caused a problem on out-of-tree builds. This PR fixes that by normalizing "stdlib_dir" when it is calculated in getpath.c.
