Change the declaration of the keywords parameter in functions
PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords() and PyArg_VaParseTupleAndKeywords() from `char **`
to `char * const *` in C and `const char * const *` in C++.
It makes these functions compatible with argument of type `const char * const *`,
`const char **` or `char * const *` in C++ and `char * const *` in C
without explicit type cast.

Move the following private functions and structures to
pycore_modsupport.h internal C API:
* _PyArg_BadArgument()
* _PyArg_CheckPositional()
* _PyArg_NoKeywords()
* _PyArg_NoPositional()
* _PyArg_ParseStack()
* _PyArg_ParseStackAndKeywords()
* _PyArg_Parser structure
* _PyArg_UnpackKeywords()
* _PyArg_UnpackKeywordsWithVararg()
* _PyArg_UnpackStack()
* _Py_ANY_VARARGS()
Changes:
* Python/getargs.h now includes pycore_modsupport.h to export
functions.
* clinic.py now adds pycore_modsupport.h when one of these functions
is used.
* Add pycore_modsupport.h includes when a C extension uses one of
these functions.
* Define Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE in C extensions which now include
directly or indirectly (via code generated by Argument Clinic)
pycore_modsupport.h:
* _csv
* _curses_panel
* _dbm
* _gdbm
* _multiprocessing.posixshmem
* _sqlite.row
* _statistics
* grp
* resource
* syslog
* _testcapi: bad_get() no longer uses METH_FASTCALL calling
convention but METH_VARARGS. Replace _PyArg_UnpackStack() with
PyArg_ParseTuple().
* _testcapi: add PYTESTCAPI_NEED_INTERNAL_API macro which is defined
by _testcapi sub-modules which need the internal C API
(pycore_modsupport.h): exceptions.c, float.c, vectorcall.c,
watchers.c.
* Remove Include/cpython/modsupport.h header file.
Include/modsupport.h no longer includes the removed header file.
* Fix mypy clinic.py
* Move <ctype.h>, <limits.h> and <stdarg.h> standard includes to
Python.h.
* Move "pystats.h" include from object.h to Python.h.
* Remove redundant "pymem.h" include in objimpl.h and "pyport.h"
include in pymem.h; Python.h already includes them earlier.
* Remove redundant <wchar.h> include in unicodeobject.h; Python.h
already includes it.
* Move _SGI_MP_SOURCE define from Python.h to pyport.h.
* pycore_condvar.h includes explicitly <unistd.h> for the
_POSIX_THREADS macro.
Python built with "configure --with-trace-refs" (tracing references)
is now ABI compatible with Python release build and debug build.
Moreover, it now also supports the Limited API.
Change Py_TRACE_REFS build:
* Remove _PyObject_EXTRA_INIT macro.
* The PyObject structure no longer has two extra members (_ob_prev
and _ob_next).
* Use a hash table (_Py_hashtable_t) to trace references (all
objects): PyInterpreterState.object_state.refchain.
* Py_TRACE_REFS build is now ABI compatible with release build and
debug build.
* Limited C API extensions can now be built with Py_TRACE_REFS:
xxlimited, xxlimited_35, _testclinic_limited.
* No longer rename PyModule_Create2() and PyModule_FromDefAndSpec2()
functions to PyModule_Create2TraceRefs() and
PyModule_FromDefAndSpec2TraceRefs().
* _Py_PrintReferenceAddresses() is now called before
finalize_interp_delete() which deletes the refchain hash table.
* test_tracemalloc find_trace() now also filters by size to ignore
the memory allocated by _PyRefchain_Trace().
Test changes for Py_TRACE_REFS:
* Add test.support.Py_TRACE_REFS constant.
* Add test_sys.test_getobjects() to test sys.getobjects() function.
* test_exceptions skips test_recursion_normalizing_with_no_memory()
and test_memory_error_in_PyErr_PrintEx() if Python is built with
Py_TRACE_REFS.
* test_repl skips test_no_memory().
* test_capi skisp test_set_nomemory().
A bunch of code currently uses PyInterpreterState.modules directly instead of PyImport_GetModuleDict(). This complicates efforts to make changes relative to sys.modules. This patch switches to using PyImport_GetModuleDict() uniformly. Also, a number of related uses of sys.modules are updated for uniformity for the same reason.
Note that this code was already reviewed and merged as part of #1638. I reverted that and am now splitting it up into more focused parts.
PR #1638, for bpo-28411, causes problems in some (very) edge cases. Until that gets sorted out, we're reverting the merge. PR #3506, a fix on top of #1638, is also getting reverted.
PyArg_VaParse() and PyArg_VaParseTupleAndKeywords() were not available in
limited API. PyArg_ValidateKeywordArguments(), PyArg_UnpackTuple() and
Py_BuildValue() were not available in limited API of version < 3.3 when
PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN is defined.

Issue #27810:
* Modify vgetargskeywordsfast() to work on a C array of PyObject* rather than
working on a tuple directly.
* Add _PyArg_ParseStack()
* Argument Clinic now emits code using the new METH_FASTCALL calling convention
Known limitations of the current implementation:
- documentation changes are incomplete
- there's a reference leak I haven't tracked down yet
The leak is most visible by running:
./python -m test -R3:3 test_importlib
However, you can also see it by running:
./python -X showrefcount
Importing the array or _testmultiphase modules, and
then deleting them from both sys.modules and the local
namespace shows significant increases in the total
number of active references each cycle. By contrast,
with _testcapi (which continues to use single-phase
initialisation) the global refcounts stabilise after
a couple of cycles.
