POSIX systems with a C extension module. This is required in order for
the subprocess module to be made thread safe.
The pure python implementation is retained so that it can continue to be
used if for some reason the _posixsubprocess extension module is not
available.
The unittest executes tests on both code paths to guarantee compatibility.
* Moves PyLong_FromPid and PyLong_AsPid from posixmodule.c into longobject.h.

Fix issue #1590864, multiple threads and fork() can cause deadlocks, by
acquiring the import lock around fork() calls. This prevents other threads
from having that lock while the fork happens, and is the recommended way of
dealing with such issues. There are two other locks we care about, the GIL
and the Thread Local Storage lock. The GIL is obviously held when calling
Python functions like os.fork(), and the TLS lock is explicitly reallocated
instead, while also deleting now-orphaned TLS data.
This only fixes calls to os.fork(), not extension modules or embedding
programs calling C's fork() directly. Solving that requires a new set of API
functions, and possibly a rewrite of the Python/thread_*.c mess. Add a
warning explaining the problem to the documentation in the mean time.
This also changes behaviour a little on AIX. Before, AIX (but only AIX) was
getting the import lock reallocated, seemingly to avoid this very same
problem. This is not the right approach, because the import lock is a
re-entrant one, and reallocating would do the wrong thing when forking while
holding the import lock.
Will backport to 2.6, minus the tiny AIX behaviour change.

Broken Py3.1 release build in Visual Studio 2005
The CRT runtime structure that holds ioinfo doesn't appear to match the decleration from the headers provided with the Visual Studio 2005 crt sources. In Release, an extra 8 bytes follow the final BOOL. I cannot explain this, but the code works now, both in 32 bits and 64
+ fixed an obvious merge glitch in a windows-only test.
Patch by Hirokazu Yamamoto.
I added a _PyVerify_fd() call to os.device_encoding() (new in python 3.0)
which also uses a raw file descriptor.
