such that changes to the working directory while the
program is running will have no effect on imports
when using the -m switch.
- new PYTHONCOERCECLOCALE config setting
- coerces legacy C locale to C.UTF-8, C.utf8 or UTF-8 by default
- always uses C.UTF-8 on Android
- uses `surrogateescape` on stdin and stdout in the coercion

Windows requires at least the SYSTEMROOT environment variable to start Python.
If run_python_until_end() doesn't copy SYSTEMROOT, the function always fail on
Windows.
If Popen.communicate() raises an exception, kill the child process to not leave
a running child process in background and maybe create a zombi process.
This change fixes a ResourceWarning in Python 3.6 when unit tests are
interrupted by CTRL+c.

some unittests. This simplifies the code.
* assert_python_ok docstring typo fix.
* Fix test_cmd_line not to fail if PYTHONHASHSEED is set to a fixed seed.
