* The majority of the monitoring code is in instrumentation.c
* The new instrumentation bytecodes are in bytecodes.c
* legacy_tracing.c adapts the new API to the old sys.setrace and sys.setprofile APIs
The function is like Py_AtExit() but for a single interpreter. This is a companion to the atexit module's register() function, taking a C callback instead of a Python one.
We also update the _xxinterpchannels module to use _Py_AtExit(), which is the motivating case. (This is inspired by pain points felt while working on gh-101660.)
In gh-102744 we added is_core_module() (in Python/import.c), which relies on get_core_module_dict() (also added in that PR). The problem is that_PyImport_FixupBuiltin(), which ultimately calls is_core_module(), is called on the builtins module before interp->builtins_copyis set. Consequently, the builtins module isn't considered a "core" module while it is getting "fixed up" and its module def m_copy erroneously gets set. Under isolated interpreters this causes problems since sys and builtins are allowed even though they are still single-phase init modules. (This was discovered while working on gh-101660.)
The solution is to stop relying on get_core_module_dict() in is_core_module().
Sharing mutable (or non-immortal) objects between interpreters is generally not safe. We can work around that but not easily.
There are two restrictions that are critical for objects that break interpreter isolation.
The first is that the object's state be guarded by a global lock. For now the GIL meets this requirement, but a granular global lock is needed once we have a per-interpreter GIL.
The second restriction is that the object (and, for a container, its items) be deallocated/resized only when the interpreter in which it was allocated is the current one. This is because every interpreter has (or will have, see gh-101660) its own object allocator. Deallocating an object with a different allocator can cause crashes.
The dict for the cache of module defs is completely internal, which simplifies what we have to do to meet those requirements. To do so, we do the following:
* add a mechanism for re-using a temporary thread state tied to the main interpreter in an arbitrary thread
* add _PyRuntime.imports.extensions.main_tstate`
* add _PyThreadState_InitDetached() and _PyThreadState_ClearDetached() (pystate.c)
* add _PyThreadState_BindDetached() and _PyThreadState_UnbindDetached() (pystate.c)
* make sure the cache dict (_PyRuntime.imports.extensions.dict) and its items are all owned by the main interpreter)
* add a placeholder using for a granular global lock
Note that the cache is only used for legacy extension modules and not for multi-phase init modules.

This reverts commit 87be8d9.
This approach to keeping the interned strings safe is turning out to be too complex for my taste (due to obmalloc isolation). For now I'm going with the simpler solution, making the dict per-interpreter. We can revisit that later if we want a sharing solution.
This is effectively two changes. The first (the bulk of the change) is where we add _Py_AddToGlobalDict() (and _PyRuntime.cached_objects.main_tstate, etc.). The second (much smaller) change is where we update PyUnicode_InternInPlace() to use _Py_AddToGlobalDict() instead of calling PyDict_SetDefault() directly.
Basically, _Py_AddToGlobalDict() is a wrapper around PyDict_SetDefault() that should be used whenever we need to add a value to a runtime-global dict object (in the few cases where we are leaving the container global rather than moving it to PyInterpreterState, e.g. the interned strings dict). _Py_AddToGlobalDict() does all the necessary work to make sure the target global dict is shared safely between isolated interpreters. This is especially important as we move the obmalloc state to each interpreter (gh-101660), as well as, potentially, the GIL (PEP 684).

* Eliminate all remaining uses of Py_SIZE and Py_SET_SIZE on PyLongObject, adding asserts.
* Change layout of size/sign bits in longobject to support future addition of immortal ints and tagged medium ints.
* Add functions to hide some internals of long object, and for setting sign and digit count.
* Replace uses of IS_MEDIUM_VALUE macro with _PyLong_IsCompact().
Aside from sys and builtins, _io is the only core builtin module that hasn't been ported to multi-phase init. We may do so later (e.g. gh-101948), but in the meantime we must at least take care of the module's static types properly. (This came up while working on gh-101660.)

The error-handling code in new_interpreter() has been broken for a while. We hadn't noticed because those code mostly doesn't fail. (I noticed while working on gh-101660.) The problem is that we try to clear/delete the newly-created thread/interpreter using itself, which just failed. The solution is to switch back to the calling thread state first.

Moving it valuable with a per-interpreter GIL. However, it is also useful without one, since it allows us to identify refleaks within a single interpreter or where references are escaping an interpreter. This becomes more important as we move the obmalloc state to PyInterpreterState.

Prior to this change, errors in _Py_NewInterpreterFromConfig() were always fatal. Instead, callers should be able to handle such errors and keep going. That's what this change supports. (This was an oversight in the original implementation of _Py_NewInterpreterFromConfig().) Note that the existing [fatal] behavior of the public Py_NewInterpreter() is preserved.

The essentially eliminates the global variable, with the associated benefits. This is also a precursor to isolating this bit of state to PyInterpreterState.
Folks that currently read _Py_RefTotal directly would have to start using _Py_GetGlobalRefTotal() instead.

This deprecates `st_ctime` fields on Windows, with the intent to change them to contain the correct value in 3.14. For now, they should keep returning the creation time as they always have.
This behavior is optional, because in some extreme cases it
may just make debugging harder. The tool defaults it to off,
but it is on in Makefile.pre.in.
Also note that this makes diffs to generated_cases.c.h noisier,
since whenever you insert or delete a line in bytecodes.c,
all subsequent #line directives will change.
