* gh-105912: document gotcha with using os.fork on macOS
Using ``fork(2)`` on macOS when also using higher-level
system APIs in the parent proces can crash on macOS because
those system APIs are not written to handle this usage
pattern.
There's nothing we can do about this other than documenting
the problem.

It was raised in two cases:
* in the import statement when looking up __import__
* in pickling some builtin type when looking up built-ins iter, getattr, etc.
When new mailbox.Maildir methods were added for 3.13.0a2, their
documentation was added at the end of the mailbox.Maildir section
instead of grouping them with other methods Maildir adds to Mailbox.
This commit moves the new methods' documentation adjacent to
documentation for existing Maildir-specific methods, so that
the "special remarks" for common methods remains at the end.
POSIX specifies that implementations are not required to support changing the
file mode of symbolic links, but may do so.
Consequently, `lchmod()` is not part of POSIX (but mentioned for implementations
which do support the above).
The current wording of the availability of `os.lchmod()` is rather vague and
improved to clearly tell which POSIX/Unix/BSD-like support the function in
general (those that support changing the file mode of symbolic links).
Further, some examples of major implementations are added.
Data for the BSDs taken from their online manpages.

This affects task creation through either `asyncio.create_task()` or `TaskGroup.create_task()` -- the redundant call to `task.set_name()` is skipped. We still call `set_name()` when a task factory is involved, because the task factory call signature (unfortunately) doesn't take a `name` argument.
We need the TracebackException of uncaught exceptions for a single purpose: the error display. Thus we only need to pass the formatted error display between interpreters. Passing a pickled TracebackException is overkill.
The `PyThreadState_Clear()` function must only be called with the GIL
held and must be called from the same interpreter as the passed in
thread state. Otherwise, any Python objects on the thread state may be
destroyed using the wrong interpreter, leading to memory corruption.
This is also important for `Py_GIL_DISABLED` builds because free lists
will be associated with PyThreadStates and cleared in
`PyThreadState_Clear()`.
This fixes two places that called `PyThreadState_Clear()` from the wrong
interpreter and adds an assertion to `PyThreadState_Clear()`.
When an exception is uncaught in Interpreter.exec_sync(), it helps to show that exception's error display if uncaught in the calling interpreter. We do so here by generating a TracebackException in the subinterpreter and passing it between interpreters using pickle.
This fixes a recently introduced bug where the deferred count is being unnecessarily decremented to counteract an increment elsewhere that is no longer happening. This caused the values to flip around to "very large" 64-bit numbers.
gh-112982 broke test_threading on one of the s390 buildbots (Fedora Clang Installed). Apparently ImportError is raised (rather than ModuleNotFoundError) for the name part of "from" imports. This fixes that by catching ImportError in test_threading.py.
