This makes it more clear that a given test is definitely testing against a single-phase init (legacy) extension module. The new module is a companion to _testmultiphase.

- Add requires_fork and requires_subprocess to more tests
- Skip extension import tests if dlopen is not available
- Don't assume that _testcapi is a shared extension
- Skip a lot of socket tests that don't work on Emscripten
- Skip mmap tests, mmap emulation is incomplete
- venv does not work yet
- Cannot get libc from executable
The "entire" test suite is now passing on Emscripten with EMSDK from git head (91 suites are skipped).
Extension modules: m_traverse, m_clear and m_free functions of
PyModuleDef are no longer called if the module state was requested
but is not allocated yet. This is the case immediately after the
module is created and before the module is executed (Py_mod_exec
function). More precisely, these functions are not called if m_size is
greater than 0 and the module state (as returned by
PyModule_GetState()) is NULL.
Extension modules without module state (m_size <= 0) are not affected.

Multi-phase initialized modules allow m_traverse to be called while the
module is still being initialized, so module authors may need to account
for that.
Multi-phase extension module import now correctly allows the
``m_methods`` field to be used to add module level functions
to instances of non-module types returned from ``Py_create_mod``.

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.
Adds `load_package_tests` function to test.support, uses it in test_asyncio,
test_email, test_json, test_tools, test_importlib and all test_importlib
sub-packages to implement test discovery.
module loaders.
Due to the fact that the call signatures for extension modules and
built-in modules does not allow for the specifying of what module to
initialize and that on Windows all extension modules are built-in
modules, work to clean up built-in and extension module initialization
will have to wait until Python 3.5. Because of this the semantics of
exec_module() would be incorrect, so removing the methods for now is
the best option; load_module() is still used as a fallback by
importlib and so this won't affect semantics.
This commit fixes a regression that sneaked into Python 3.3 where importlib
was not respecting -E when checking for the PYTHONCASEOK environment variable.
