Fix data races in the method cache in free-threaded builds
These are technically data races, but I think they're benign (to
the extent that that is actually possible). We update cache entries
non-atomically but read them atomically from another thread, and there's
nothing that establishes a happens-before relationship between the
reads and writes that I can see.
Fix mimalloc allocator for huge memory allocation (around
8,589,934,592 GiB) on s390x.
Abort allocation early in mimalloc if the number of slices doesn't
fit into uint32_t, to prevent a integer overflow (cast 64-bit
size_t to uint32_t).
We want code objects to use deferred reference counting in the
free-threaded build. This requires them to be tracked by the GC, so we
set `Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_GC` in the free-threaded build, but not the default
build.
Guido pointed out to me that some details about the per-interpreter state for the builtin types aren't especially clear. I'm addressing that by:
* adding a comment explaining that state
* adding some asserts to point out the relationship between each index and the interp/global runtime state
This change gives a significant speedup, as the METH_FASTCALL calling
convention is now used. The following bytes and bytearray methods are adapted:
- count()
- find()
- index()
- rfind()
- rindex()

This keeps track of the per-thread total reference count operations in
PyThreadState in the free-threaded builds. The count is merged into the
interpreter's total when the thread exits.
Most mutable data is protected by a striped lock that is keyed on the
referenced object's address. The weakref's hash is protected using the
weakref's per-object lock.
Note that this only affects free-threaded builds. Apart from some minor
refactoring, the added code is all either gated by `ifdef`s or is a no-op
(e.g. `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION`).
I had meant to switch everything to InterpreterError when I added it a while back. At the time I missed a few key spots.
As part of this, I've added print-the-exception to _PyXI_InitTypes() and fixed an error case in `_PyStaticType_InitBuiltin().
This change gives a significant speedup, as the METH_FASTCALL calling
convention is now used. The following methods are adapted:
- str.count
- str.find
- str.index
- str.rfind
- str.rindex
Use the fully qualified type name in repr() of weakref.ref and
weakref.proxy types.
Fix a crash in proxy_repr() when the reference is dead.
Add also test_ref_repr() and test_proxy_repr().
Add a special case for `list.extend(dict)` and `list(dict)` so that those
patterns behave atomically with respect to modifications to the list or
dictionary.
This is required by multiprocessing, which assumes that
`list(_finalizer_registry)` is atomic.
