In free-threaded builds, running with `PYTHON_GIL=0` will now disable the
GIL. Follow-up issues track work to re-enable the GIL when loading an
incompatible extension, and to disable the GIL by default.
In order to support re-enabling the GIL at runtime, all GIL-related data
structures are initialized as usual, and disabling the GIL simply sets a flag
that causes `take_gil()` and `drop_gil()` to return early.
Replace most of calls of _PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg() and some
calls of PyErr_WriteUnraisable(NULL) with PyErr_FormatUnraisable().

* Add mimalloc v2.12
Modified src/alloc.c to remove include of alloc-override.c and not
compile new handler.
Did not include the following files:
- include/mimalloc-new-delete.h
- include/mimalloc-override.h
- src/alloc-override-osx.c
- src/alloc-override.c
- src/static.c
- src/region.c
mimalloc is thread safe and shares a single heap across all runtimes,
therefore finalization and getting global allocated blocks across all
runtimes is different.
* mimalloc: minimal changes for use in Python:
- remove debug spam for freeing large allocations
- use same bytes (0xDD) for freed allocations in CPython and mimalloc
This is important for the test_capi debug memory tests
* Don't export mimalloc symbol in libpython.
* Enable mimalloc as Python allocator option.
* Add mimalloc MIT license.
* Log mimalloc in Lib/test/pythoninfo.py.
* Document new mimalloc support.
* Use macro defs for exports as done in:

Move private _PyMem functions to the internal C API (pycore_pymem.h):
* _PyMem_GetCurrentAllocatorName()
* _PyMem_RawStrdup()
* _PyMem_RawWcsdup()
* _PyMem_Strdup()
No longer export these functions.
Move pymem_getallocatorsname() function from _testcapi to _testinternalcapi,
since the API moved to the internal C API.
It had to live as a global outside of PyConfig for stable ABI reasons in
the pre-3.12 backports.
This removes the `_Py_global_config_int_max_str_digits` and gets rid of
the equivalent field in the internal `struct _is PyInterpreterState` as
code can just use the existing nested config struct within that.
Adds tests to verify unique settings and configs in subinterpreters.
Fix command line parsing: reject "-X int_max_str_digits" option with
no value (invalid) when the PYTHONINTMAXSTRDIGITS environment
variable is set to a valid limit.
Integer to and from text conversions via CPython's bignum `int` type is not safe against denial of service attacks due to malicious input. Very large input strings with hundred thousands of digits can consume several CPU seconds.
This PR comes fresh from a pile of work done in our private PSRT security response team repo.

I wrote up [a one pager for the release managers](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KjuF_aXlzPUxTK4BMgezGJ2Pn7uevfX7g0_mvgHlL7Y/edit#). Much of that text wound up in the Issue. Backports PRs already exist. See the issue for links.
Add the -P command line option and the PYTHONSAFEPATH environment
variable to not prepend a potentially unsafe path to sys.path.
* Add sys.flags.safe_path flag.
* Add PyConfig.safe_path member.
* Programs/_bootstrap_python.c uses config.safe_path=0.
* Update subprocess._optim_args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle
the -P command line option.
* Modules/getpath.py sets safe_path to 1 if a "._pth" file is
present.
Instead of explicitly enumerate test classes for run_unittest()
use the unittest ability to discover tests. This also makes these
tests discoverable and runnable with unittest.
load_tests() can be used for dynamic generating tests and adding
doctests. setUpModule(), tearDownModule() and addModuleCleanup()
can be used for running code before and after all module tests.
Python no longer fails at startup with a fatal error if a command
line argument contains an invalid Unicode character.
The Py_DecodeLocale() function now escapes byte sequences which would
be decoded as Unicode characters outside the [U+0000; U+10ffff]
range.
Use MAX_UNICODE constant in unicodeobject.c.
The coding cookie (ex: "# coding: latin1") is now ignored in the
command passed to the -c command line option.
Since pymain_run_command() uses UTF-8, pass PyCF_IGNORE_COOKIE
compiler flag to the parser.
pymain_run_python() no longer propages compiler flags between
function calls.
* Revert "bpo-34589: Add -X coerce_c_locale command line option (GH-9378)"
This reverts commit dbdee0073c.
* Revert "bpo-34589: C locale coercion off by default (GH-9073)"
This reverts commit 7a0791b699.
* Revert "bpo-34589: Make _PyCoreConfig.coerce_c_locale private (GH-9371)"
This reverts commit 188ebfa475.
* Inline cmdline_get_env_flags() into config_read_env_vars():
_PyCoreConfig_Read() now reads much more environment variables like
PYTHONVERBOSE.
* Allow to override faulthandler and allocator even if dev_mode=1.
PYTHONMALLOC is now the priority over PYTHONDEVMODE.
* Fix _PyCoreConfig_Copy(): copy also install_signal_handlers,
coerce_c_locale and coerce_c_locale_warn
* _PyCoreConfig.install_signal_handlers default is now 1: install
signals by default
* Fix also a compiler warning: don't define _PyPathConfig type twice.
Add more fields to _PyCoreConfig:
* _check_hash_pycs_mode
* bytes_warning
* debug
* inspect
* interactive
* legacy_windows_fs_encoding
* legacy_windows_stdio
* optimization_level
* quiet
* unbuffered_stdio
* user_site_directory
* verbose
* write_bytecode
Changes:
* Remove pymain_get_global_config() and pymain_set_global_config()
which became useless. These functions have been replaced by
_PyCoreConfig_GetGlobalConfig() and
_PyCoreConfig_SetGlobalConfig().
* sys.flags.dont_write_bytecode value is now restricted to 1 even if
-B option is specified multiple times on the command line.
* PyThreadState_Clear() now uses the config from the current
interpreter rather than using global Py_VerboseFlag
* Add support.MS_WINDOWS: True if Python is running on Microsoft Windows.
* Add support.MACOS: True if Python is running on Apple macOS.
* Replace support.is_android with support.ANDROID
* Replace support.is_jython with support.JYTHON
* Cleanup code to initialize unix_shell
In some development setups it is inconvenient or impossible to write bytecode
caches to the code tree, but the bytecode caches are still useful. The
PYTHONPYCACHEPREFIX environment variable allows specifying an alternate
location for cached bytecode files, within which a directory tree mirroring the code
tree will be created. This cache tree is then used (for both reading and writing)
instead of the local `__pycache__` subdirectory within each source directory.
Exposed at runtime as sys.pycache_prefix (defaulting to None), and can
be set from the CLI as "-X pycache_prefix=path".
