replacing hashlib primitives (for the non-OpenSSL case) with verified implementations from HACL*. This is the first PR in the series, and focuses specifically on SHA2-256 and SHA2-224.
This PR imports Hacl_Streaming_SHA2 into the Python tree. This is the HACL* implementation of SHA2, which combines a core implementation of SHA2 along with a layer of buffer management that allows updating the digest with any number of bytes. This supersedes the previous implementation in the tree.
@franziskuskiefer was kind enough to benchmark the changes: in addition to being verified (thus providing significant safety and security improvements), this implementation also provides a sizeable performance boost!

The changes in this PR are as follows:
- import the subset of HACL* that covers SHA2-256/224 into `Modules/_hacl`
- rewire sha256module.c to use the HACL* implementation

The ``structmember.h`` header is deprecated, though it continues to be available
and there are no plans to remove it. There are no deprecation warnings. Old code
can stay unchanged (unless the extra include and non-namespaced macros bother
you greatly). Specifically, no uses in CPython are updated -- that would just be
unnecessary churn.
The ``structmember.h`` header is deprecated, though it continues to be
available and there are no plans to remove it.
Its contents are now available just by including ``Python.h``,
with a ``Py`` prefix added if it was missing:
- `PyMemberDef`, `PyMember_GetOne` and`PyMember_SetOne`
- Type macros like `Py_T_INT`, `Py_T_DOUBLE`, etc.
(previously ``T_INT``, ``T_DOUBLE``, etc.)
- The flags `Py_READONLY` (previously ``READONLY``) and
`Py_AUDIT_READ` (previously all uppercase)
Several items are not exposed from ``Python.h``:
- `T_OBJECT` (use `Py_T_OBJECT_EX`)
- `T_NONE` (previously undocumented, and pretty quirky)
- The macro ``WRITE_RESTRICTED`` which does nothing.
- The macros ``RESTRICTED`` and ``READ_RESTRICTED``, equivalents of
`Py_AUDIT_READ`.
- In some configurations, ``<stddef.h>`` is not included from ``Python.h``.
It should be included manually when using ``offsetof()``.
The deprecated header continues to provide its original
contents under the original names.
Your old code can stay unchanged, unless the extra include and non-namespaced
macros bother you greatly.
There is discussion on the issue to rename `T_PYSSIZET` to `PY_T_SSIZE` or
similar. I chose not to do that -- users will probably copy/paste that with any
spelling, and not renaming it makes migration docs simpler.

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.

- Move PyUnicode tests to a separate file
- Add some more tests for PyUnicode_FromFormat

The `_testcapimodule.c` file is getting too large to work with effectively.
This PR lays out a general structure of how tests can be split up, with more splitting to come later if the structure is OK.
Vectorcall tests aren't the biggest issue -- it's just an area I want to work on next, so I'm starting here.
An issue specific to vectorcall tests is that it wasn't clear that e.g. `MethodDescriptor2` is related to testing vectorcall: the `/* Test PEP 590 */` section had an ambiguous end. Separate file should make things like this much clearer.
OTOH, for some pieces it might not be clear where they should be -- I left `meth_fastcall` with tests of the other calling conventions. IMO, even with the ambiguity it's still worth it to split the huge file up.
I'm not sure about the buildsystem changes, hopefully CI will tell me what's wrong.
@vstinner, @markshannon: Do you think this is a good idea?

- Remove ``--with-tclk-*`` options from `configure`
- Use pkg-config to detect `_tkinter` dependencies (Tcl/Tk, X11)
- Manual override via environment variables `TCLTK_CFLAGS` and `TCLTK_LIBS`
``Modules/Setup.stdlib`` contains ``Setup`` lines for all stdlib extension modules for which ``configure`` has detected their dependencies. The file is not used yet and still under development. To use the file, do ``ln -sfr Modules/Setup.stdlib Modules/Setup.local``.
