* Switch PyUnicode_InternInPlace to _PyUnicode_InternMortal, clarify docs
* Document immortality in some functions that take `const char *`
This is PyUnicode_InternFromString;
PyDict_SetItemString, PyObject_SetAttrString;
PyObject_DelAttrString; PyUnicode_InternFromString;
and the PyModule_Add convenience functions.
Always point out a non-immortalizing alternative.
* Don't immortalize user-provided attr names in _ctypes
console.compile with the "single" param throws an exception when
there are multiple statements, never allowing to adding newlines
to a pasted code block (gh-121610)
This add a few extra checks to allow extending when in an indented
block, and tests for a few examples

We should maintain the invariant that a zero `ob_tid` implies the
refcount fields are merged.
* Move the assignment in `_Py_MergeZeroLocalRefcount` to immediately
before the refcount merge.
* Update `_PyTrash_thread_destroy_chain` to set `ob_ref_shared` to
`_Py_REF_MERGED` when setting `ob_tid` to zero.
Also check this invariant with assertions in the GC in debug builds.
That uncovered a bug when running out of memory during GC.
Any cross-interpreter mechanism for passing objects between interpreters must be very careful to respect isolation, even when the object is effectively immutable (e.g. int, str). Here this especially relates to when an interpreter sends one of its objects, and then is destroyed while the inter-interpreter machinery (e.g. queue) still holds a reference to the object.
When I added interpreters.Queue, I dealt with that case (using an atexit hook) by silently removing all items from the queue that were added by the finalizing interpreter.
Later, while working on concurrent.futures.InterpreterPoolExecutor (gh-116430), I noticed it was somewhat surprising when items were silently removed from the queue when the originating interpreter was destroyed. (See my comment on that PR.)
It took me a little while to realize what was going on. I expect that users, which much less context than I have, would experience the same pain.
My approach, here, to improving the situation is to give users three options:
1. return a singleton (interpreters.queues.UNBOUND) from Queue.get() in place of each removed item
2. raise an exception (interpreters.queues.ItemInterpreterDestroyed) from Queue.get() in place of each removed item
3. existing behavior: silently remove each item (i.e. Queue.get() skips each one)
The default will now be (1), but users can still explicitly opt in any of them, including to the silent removal behavior.
The behavior for each item may be set with the corresponding Queue.put() call. and a queue-wide default may be set when the queue is created. (This is the same as I did for "synconly".)
They are alternate constructors which only accept numbers
(including objects with special methods __float__, __complex__
and __index__), but not strings.
It is our general practice to make new optional parameters keyword-only,
even if the existing parameters are all positional-or-keyword. Passing
this parameter as positional would look confusing and could be error-prone
if additional parameters are added in the future.
Performance improvement to `float.fromhex`: use a lookup table
for computing the hexadecimal value of a character, in place of the
previous switch-case construct. Patch by Bruno Lima.
