* Move up the comment about fields using in hashing/comparision.
* Group the fields more clearly.
* Add co_ncellvars and co_nfreevars.
* Raise ValueError if nlocals != len(varnames), rather than aborting.
The list lookups become a big burden for very long lists.
This patch changes the "happy flow" path of 2 lookups into 1 lookup.

Fix a regression in type() when a metaclass raises an exception. The
C function type_new() must properly report the exception when a
metaclass constructor raises an exception and the winner class is not
the metaclass.
Py_FrozenMain was added to the Limited C API in [bpo-42591]() (3.10.0a4);
but to fix that issue it would be enough to add it to the regular C API.
The function is undocumented, tests were added very recently ([bpo-44131]()),
and most importantly, it is not present in all builds of Python, as
the linker sometimes omits it as unused.
It should be added back when these issues are fixed.
Note that this does not affect Python's regular C API.
The fix only applies to ``isinstance``. ``issubclass`` isn't affected (because it was always working to begin with). So I also fixed the news to reflect that.
A previous commit broke a check in sysconfig when building cpython itself.
This caused builds of the standard library modules to search a wrong
location (the installed location rather than the source directory) for
header files with the net effect that a ``make install``
incorrectly caused all extension modules to be rebuilt again and
with incorrect include file paths.
When building Python, we need two distinct "include" directories:
- source .h files
- install target for .h files
Note that this doesn't matter except when building Python from source.
Historically:
- source .h files were in the distutils scheme under 'include'
- the install directory was in the distutils.command.install scheme
under 'headers'
GH-24549 merged these; sysconfig is now the single source of truth and
distutils is derived from it.
This commit introduces a "secret" scheme path, 'headers', which contains
the install target. It is only present when building Python.
The distutils code uses it if present, and falls back to 'include'.
