gh-109723: Disable Py_BUILD_CORE in _testcapi (#109727)
Make sure that the internal C API is not tested by mistake by
_testcapi.

Undefine Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN and Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macros in
Modules/_testcapi/parts.h: move code from _testcapimodule.c.

heaptype_relative.c and vectorcall_limited.c are using the limited C
API which is incompatible with the internal C API.

Move test_long_numbits() from _testcapi to _testinternalcapi since it
uses the internal C API "pycore_long.h".

Fix Modules/_testcapi/pyatomic.c: don't include Python.h directly,
just include _testcapi/parts.h.

Ajust "make check-c-globals" for these changes.

gh-108724: Add PyMutex and _PyParkingLot APIs (gh-109344)
PyMutex is a one byte lock with fast, inlineable lock and unlock functions for the common uncontended case.  The design is based on WebKit's WTF::Lock.

PyMutex is built using the _PyParkingLot APIs, which provides a cross-platform futex-like API (based on WebKit's WTF::ParkingLot).  This internal API will be used for building other synchronization primitives used to implement PEP 703, such as one-time initialization and events.

This also includes tests and a mini benchmark in Tools/lockbench/lockbench.py to compare with the existing PyThread_type_lock.

Uncontended acquisition + release:
* Linux (x86-64): PyMutex: 11 ns, PyThread_type_lock: 44 ns
* macOS (arm64): PyMutex: 13 ns, PyThread_type_lock: 18 ns
* Windows (x86-64): PyMutex: 13 ns, PyThread_type_lock: 38 ns

PR Overview:

The primary purpose of this PR is to implement PyMutex, but there are a number of support pieces (described below).

* PyMutex:  A 1-byte lock that doesn't require memory allocation to initialize and is generally faster than the existing PyThread_type_lock.  The API is internal only for now.
* _PyParking_Lot:  A futex-like API based on the API of the same name in WebKit.  Used to implement PyMutex.
* _PyRawMutex:  A word sized lock used to implement _PyParking_Lot.
* PyEvent:  A one time event.  This was used a bunch in the "nogil" fork and is useful for testing the PyMutex implementation, so I've included it as part of the PR.
* pycore_llist.h:  Defines common operations on doubly-linked list.  Not strictly necessary (could do the list operations manually), but they come up frequently in the "nogil" fork. ( Similar to https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?queue)

gh-108337: Add pyatomic.h header (#108701)
This adds a new header that provides atomic operations on common data
types. The intention is that this will be exposed through Python.h,
although that is not the case yet. The only immediate use is in
the test file.
