It had to live as a global outside of PyConfig for stable ABI reasons in
the pre-3.12 backports.
This removes the `_Py_global_config_int_max_str_digits` and gets rid of
the equivalent field in the internal `struct _is PyInterpreterState` as
code can just use the existing nested config struct within that.
Adds tests to verify unique settings and configs in subinterpreters.

* Test with some large negative and positive values(out of range of a longlong,i.e.[-2\*\*63, 2\*\*63-1])
* Test with objects of non-int type

* Treat tp_weakref and tp_dictoffset like other opaque slots for multiple inheritance.
* Document Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_DICT and Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_WEAKREF in what's new.
* Make sure that tp_dictoffset is correct with Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_DICT is set.
* Avoid traversing managed dict twice when subclassing class with Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_DICT set.
* Add test for inheriting explicit __dict__ and weakref.
* Restore 3.10 behavior for multiple inheritance of C extension classes that store their dictionary at the end of the struct.
Added a new stable API function ``PyType_FromMetaclass``, which mirrors
the behavior of ``PyType_FromModuleAndSpec`` except that it takes an
additional metaclass argument. This is, e.g., useful for language
binding tools that need to store additional information in the type
object.
One more thing that can help prevent people from using `preexec_fn`.
Also adds conditional skips to two tests exposing ASAN flakiness on the Ubuntu 20.04 Address Sanitizer Github CI system. When that build is run on more modern systems the "problem" does not show up. It seems ASAN implementation related.

Just in case there is ever an issue with _posixsubprocess's use of
vfork() due to the complexity of using it properly and potential
directions that Linux platforms where it defaults to on could take, this
adds a failsafe so that users can disable its use entirely by setting
a global flag.
No known reason to disable it exists. But it'd be a shame to encounter
one and not be able to use CPython without patching and rebuilding it.
See the linked issue for some discussion on reasoning.
Also documents the existing way to disable posix_spawn.
unittest.TestCase.assertEquals() alias is depracated. Fix the
warning:
Lib/test/test_capi.py:1100: DeprecationWarning: Please use assertEqual instead.
self.assertEquals(frame.f_locals, _testcapi.frame_getlocals(frame))
test_capi.test_export_symbols() doesn't check if Python exports the
"PyThread_get_thread_native_id" symbol if the _thread.get_native_id()
function is not available (if the PY_HAVE_THREAD_NATIVE_ID macro is
not defined).
When Python is built without --enable-shared, the "python" program is
now linked to object files, rather than being linked to the Python
library (libpython.a), to make sure that all symbols are exported.
Previously, the linker omitted some symbols like the Py_FrozenMain()
function.
When Python is configured with --without-static-libpython, the Python
static library (libpython.a) is no longer built.
* Check --without-static-libpython earlier in configure.ac
* Add LINK_PYTHON_OBJS and LINK_PYTHON_DEPS variables to Makefile.
* test_capi now ensures that the "Py_FrozenMain" symbol is exported.
When Python is embedded in other applications, it is not easy to determine which version of Python is being used. This change exposes the Python version as part of the API data. Tools like Austin (https://github.com/P403n1x87/austin) can benefit from this data when targeting applications like uWSGI, as the Python version can then be inferred systematically by looking at the exported symbols rather than relying on unreliable pattern matching or other hacks (like remote code execution etc...).

* bpo-42979: Enhance abstract.c assertions checking slot result
Add _Py_CheckSlotResult() function which fails with a fatal error if
a slot function succeeded with an exception set or failed with no
exception set: write the slot name, the type name and the current
exception (if an exception is set).
The Py_FatalError() function and the faulthandler module now dump the
list of extension modules on a fatal error.
Add _Py_DumpExtensionModules() and _PyModule_IsExtension() internal
functions.
