* Write output and metadata in a single run
This halves the time to run the cases generator
(most of the time goes into parsing the input).
* Declare or define opcode metadata based on NEED_OPCODE_TABLES
* Use generated metadata for stack_effect()
* compile.o depends on opcode_metadata.h
* Return -1 from _PyOpcode_num_popped/pushed for unknown opcode
* Make sure that the current exception is always normalized.
* Remove redundant type and traceback fields for the current exception.
* Add new API functions: PyErr_GetRaisedException, PyErr_SetRaisedException
* Add new API functions: PyException_GetArgs, PyException_SetArgs
New generator feature: Generate useful glue for output arrays, so you can just write values to the output array (no bounds checking). Rewrote UNPACK_SEQUENCE_TWO_TUPLE to use this, and also UNPACK_SEQUENCE_{TUPLE,LIST}.
The GILState API (PEP 311) implementation from 2003 made the assumption that only one thread state would ever be used for any given OS thread, explicitly disregarding the case of subinterpreters. However, PyThreadState_Swap() still facilitated switching between subinterpreters, meaning the "current" thread state (holding the GIL), and the GILState thread state could end up out of sync, causing problems (including crashes).
This change addresses the issue by keeping the two in sync in PyThreadState_Swap(). I verified the fix against gh-99040.
Note that the other GILState-subinterpreter incompatibility (with autoInterpreterState) is not resolved here.

A PyThreadState can be in one of many states in its lifecycle, represented by some status value. Those statuses haven't been particularly clear, so we're addressing that here. Specifically:
* made the distinct lifecycle statuses clear on PyThreadState
* identified expectations of how various lifecycle-related functions relate to status
* noted the various places where those expectations don't match the actual behavior
At some point we'll need to address the mismatches.
(This change also includes some cleanup.)

`warnings.warn()` gains the ability to skip stack frames based on code
filename prefix rather than only a numeric `stacklevel=` via a new
`skip_file_prefixes=` keyword argument.
We've factored out a struct from the two PyThreadState fields. This accomplishes two things:
* make it clear that the trashcan-related code doesn't need any other parts of PyThreadState
* allows us to use the trashcan mechanism even when there isn't a "current" thread state
We still expect the caller to hold the GIL.

This is a follow-up to gh-101161. The objective is to make it easier to read Python/pystate.c by grouping the functions there in a consistent way. This exclusively involves moving code around and adding various kinds of comments.
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/59956
The objective of this change is to help make the GILState-related code easier to understand. This mostly involves moving code around and some semantically equivalent refactors. However, there are a also a small number of slight changes in structure and behavior:
* tstate_current is moved out of _PyRuntimeState.gilstate
* autoTSSkey is moved out of _PyRuntimeState.gilstate
* autoTSSkey is initialized earlier
* autoTSSkey is re-initialized (after fork) earlier
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/59956
You can now write things like this:
```
inst(BUILD_STRING, (pieces[oparg] -- str)) { ... }
inst(LIST_APPEND, (list, unused[oparg-1], v -- list, unused[oparg-1])) { ... }
```
Note that array output effects are only partially supported (they must be named `unused` or correspond to an input effect).
For these the instr_format field uses IX instead of IB.
Register instructions use IX, IB, IBBX, IBBB, etc.
Also: Include the closing '}' in Block.tokens, for completeness
(These aren't used yet, but may be coming soon,
and it's easier to keep this tool the same between branches.)
Added a sanity check for all this to compile.c.

When executing the BUILD_LIST opcode, steal the references from the stack,
in a manner similar to the BUILD_TUPLE opcode. Implement this by offloading
the logic to a new private API, _PyList_FromArraySteal(), that works similarly
to _PyTuple_FromArraySteal().
This way, instead of performing multiple stack pointer adjustments while the
list is being initialized, the stack is adjusted only once and a fast memory
copy operation is performed in one fell swoop.
The presence of this macro indicates that a particular instruction
may be considered for conversion to a register-based format
(see https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/issues/485).
An invariant (currently unchecked) is that `DEOPT_IF()` may only
occur *before* `DECREF_INPUTS()`, and `ERROR_IF()` may only occur
*after* it. One reason not to check this is that there are a few
places where we insert *two* `DECREF_INPUTS()` calls, in different
branches of the code. The invariant checking would have to be able
to do some flow control analysis to understand this.
Note that many instructions, especially specialized ones,
can't be converted to use this macro straightforwardly.
This is because the generator currently only generates plain
`Py_DECREF(variable)` statements, and cannot generate
things like `_Py_DECREF_SPECIALIZED()` let alone deal with
`_PyList_AppendTakeRef()`.
Stack effects can now have a type, e.g. `inst(X, (left, right -- jump/uint64_t)) { ... }`.
Instructions converted to the non-legacy format:
* COMPARE_OP
* COMPARE_OP_FLOAT_JUMP
* COMPARE_OP_INT_JUMP
* COMPARE_OP_STR_JUMP
* STORE_ATTR
* DELETE_ATTR
* STORE_GLOBAL
* STORE_ATTR_INSTANCE_VALUE
* STORE_ATTR_WITH_HINT
* STORE_ATTR_SLOT, and complete the store_attr family
* Complete the store_subscr family: STORE_SUBSCR{,DICT,LIST_INT}
(STORE_SUBSCR was alread half converted,
but wasn't using cache effects yet.)
* DELETE_SUBSCR
* PRINT_EXPR
* INTERPRETER_EXIT (a bit weird, ends in return)
* RETURN_VALUE
* GET_AITER (had to restructure it some)
The original had mysterious `SET_TOP(NULL)` before `goto error`.
I assume those just account for `obj` having been decref'ed,
so I got rid of them in favor of the cleanup implied by `ERROR_IF()`.
* LIST_APPEND (a bit unhappy with it)
* SET_ADD (also a bit unhappy with it)
Various other improvements/refactorings as well.
builtins and extension module functions and methods that expect boolean values for parameters now accept any Python object rather than just a bool or int type. This is more consistent with how native Python code itself behaves.
* Add API to allow extensions to set callback function on creation and destruction of PyCodeObject

Newly supported interpreter definition syntax:
- `op(NAME, (input_stack_effects -- output_stack_effects)) { ... }`
- `macro(NAME) = OP1 + OP2;`
Also some other random improvements:
- Convert `WITH_EXCEPT_START` to use stack effects
- Fix lexer to balk at unrecognized characters, e.g. `@`
- Fix moved output names; support object pointers in cache
- Introduce `error()` method to print errors
- Introduce read_uint16(p) as equivalent to `*p`

Fix potential race condition in code patterns:
* Replace "Py_DECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_XDECREF(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "Py_CLEAR(var); var = new;" with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
Other changes:
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_DECREF(var)"
with "Py_SETREF(var, new);"
* Replace "old = var; var = new; Py_XDECREF(var)"
with "Py_XSETREF(var, new);"
* And remove the "old" variable.
Fix a number of compile errors with GCC-12 on macOS:
1. In pylifecycle.c the compile rejects _Pragma within a declaration
2. posixmodule.c was missing a number of ..._RUNTIME macros for non-clang on macOS
3. _ctypes assumed that __builtin_available is always present on macOS
This is part of the effort to consolidate global variables, to make them easier to manage (and make it easier to later move some of them to PyInterpreterState).

We actually don't move PyImport_Inittab. Instead, we make a copy that we keep on _PyRuntimeState and use only that after Py_Initialize(). We also prevent folks from modifying PyImport_Inittab (the best we can) after that point.
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/81057
The global allocators were stored in 3 static global variables: _PyMem_Raw, _PyMem, and _PyObject. State for the "small block" allocator was stored in another 13. That makes a total of 16 global variables. We are moving all 16 to the _PyRuntimeState struct as part of the work for gh-81057. (If PEP 684 is accepted then we will follow up by moving them all to PyInterpreterState.)
