There's no need to use a dummy uop to skip unused cache entries. The macro syntax lets you write `unused/1` instead.
Similarly, move `unused/5` from op `_LOAD_ATTR_INSTANCE_VALUE` to macro `LOAD_ATTR_INSTANCE_VALUE`.
Represent IPv4-mapped IPv6 address as x❌x❌x❌d.d.d.d,
where the 'x's are the hexadecimal values
of the six high-order 16-bit pieces of the address,
and the 'd's are the decimal values
of the four low-order 8-bit pieces of the address
(standard IPv4 representation).

This fixes a crasher due to a race condition, triggered infrequently when two isolated (own GIL) subinterpreters simultaneously initialize their sys or builtins modules. The crash happened due the combination of the "detached" thread state we were using and the "last holder" logic we use for the GIL. It turns out it's tricky to use the same thread state for different threads. Who could have guessed?
We solve the problem by eliminating the one object we were still sharing between interpreters. We replace it with a low-level hashtable, using the "raw" allocator to avoid tying it to the main interpreter.
We also remove the accommodations for "detached" thread states, which were a dubious idea to start with.
The _xxsubinterpreters module should not rely on internal API. Some of the functions it uses were recently moved there however. Here we move them back (and expose them properly).
We tried this before with a dict and for all interned strings. That ran into problems due to interpreter isolation. However, exclusively using a per-interpreter cache caused some inconsistency that can eliminate the benefit of interning. Here we circle back to using a global cache, but only for statically allocated strings. We also use a more-basic _Py_hashtable_t for that global cache instead of a dict.
Ideally we would only have the global cache, but the optional isolation of each interpreter's allocator means that a non-static string object must not outlive its interpreter. Thus we would have to store a copy of each such interned string in the global cache, tied to the main interpreter.
The two tests are crashing periodically in CI and on buildbots. I suspect the problem is in the _xxsubinterpreters module.
Regardless, I'm disabling the tests temporarily, to reduce the noise as we approach 3.12rc1. I'll be investigating the crashes separately.
