This exposes `PyUnstable_Object_ClearWeakRefsNoCallbacks` as an unstable
C-API function to provide a thread-safe mechanism for clearing weakrefs
without executing callbacks.
Some C-API extensions need to clear weakrefs without calling callbacks,
such as after running finalizers like we do in subtype_dealloc.
Previously they could use `_PyWeakref_ClearRef` on each weakref, but
that's not thread-safe in the free-threaded build.

gh-120182 added new global state (interp_count), but didn't add thread-safety for it. This change eliminates the possible race.

Make PyType_HasFeature (exported version) atomic

In gh-120009 I used an atexit hook to finalize the _datetime module's static types at interpreter shutdown. However, atexit hooks are executed very early in finalization, which is a problem in the few cases where a subclass of one of those static types is still alive until the final GC collection. The static builtin types don't have this probably because they are finalized toward the end, after the final GC collection. To avoid the problem for _datetime, I have applied a similar approach here.
Also, credit goes to @mgorny and @neonene for the new tests.
FYI, I would have liked to take a slightly cleaner approach with managed static types, but wanted to get a smaller fix in first for the sake of backporting. I'll circle back to the cleaner approach with a future change on the main branch.

We need to write to `ob_ref_local` and `ob_tid` before `ob_ref_shared`.
Once we mark `ob_ref_shared` as merged, some other thread may free the
object because the caller also passes in `-1` as `extra` to give up its
only reference.

We make use of the same mechanism that we use for the static builtin types. This required a few tweaks.
This change is the final piece needed to make _datetime support multiple interpreters. I've updated the module slot accordingly.

The free-threaded build currently immortalizes objects that use deferred
reference counting (see gh-117783). This typically happens once the
first non-main thread is created, but the behavior can be suppressed for
tests, in subinterpreters, or during a compile() call.
This fixes a race condition involving the tracking of whether the
behavior is suppressed.

* Remove the equivalence with real+imag*1j which can be incorrect in corner
cases (non-finite numbers, the sign of zeroes).
* Separately document the three roles of the constructor: parsing a string,
converting a number, and constructing a complex from components.
* Document positional-only parameters of complex(), float(), int() and bool()
as positional-only.
* Add examples for complex() and int().
* Specify the grammar of the string for complex().
* Improve the grammar of the string for float().
* Describe more explicitly the behavior when real and/or imag arguments are
complex numbers. (This will be deprecated in future.)

The deadlock only affected the free-threaded build and only occurred
when the GIL was enabled at runtime. The `Py_DECREF(old_name)` call
might temporarily release the GIL while holding the type seqlock.
Another thread may spin trying to acquire the seqlock while holding the
GIL.
The deadlock occurred roughly 1 in ~1,000 runs of `pool_in_threads.py`
from `test_multiprocessing_pool_circular_import`.

(cherry picked from commit ab4263a82a)

The `list_preallocate_exact` function did not zero initialize array
contents. In the free-threaded build, this could expose uninitialized
memory to concurrent readers between the call to
`list_preallocate_exact` and the filling of the array contents with
items.

Use relaxed atomics when reading / writing to the field. There are still a
few places in the GC where we do not use atomics. Those should be safe as
the world is stopped.

We already intern and immortalize most string constants. In the
free-threaded build, other constants can be a source of reference count
contention because they are shared by all threads running the same code
objects.
Add _PyType_LookupRef and use incref before setting attribute on type
Makes setting an attribute on a class and signaling type modified atomic
Avoid adding re-entrancy exposing the type cache in an inconsistent state by decrefing after type is updated
This interns the strings for `co_filename`, `co_name`, and `co_qualname`
on codeobjects in the free-threaded build. This partially addresses a
reference counting bottleneck when creating closures concurrently. The
closures take the name and qualified name from the code object.
This PR adds the ability to enable the GIL if it was disabled at
interpreter startup, and modifies the multi-phase module initialization
path to enable the GIL when loading a module, unless that module's spec
includes a slot indicating it can run safely without the GIL.
PEP 703 called the constant for the slot `Py_mod_gil_not_used`; I went
with `Py_MOD_GIL_NOT_USED` for consistency with gh-104148.
A warning will be issued up to once per interpreter for the first
GIL-using module that is loaded. If `-v` is given, a shorter message
will be printed to stderr every time a GIL-using module is loaded
(including the first one that issues a warning).
The module itself is a thin wrapper around calls to functions in
`Python/codecs.c`, so that's where the meaningful changes happened:
- Move codecs-related state that lives on `PyInterpreterState` to a
struct declared in `pycore_codecs.h`.
- In free-threaded builds, add a mutex to `codecs_state` to synchronize
operations on `search_path`. Because `search_path_mutex` is used as a
normal mutex and not a critical section, we must be extremely careful
with operations called while holding it.
- The codec registry is explicitly initialized as part of
`_PyUnicode_InitEncodings` to simplify thread-safety.
