[3.7] bpo-36389: _PyObject_IsFreed() now also detects uninitialized memory (GH-12770) (GH-12788)
* bpo-36389: _PyObject_IsFreed() now also detects uninitialized memory (GH-12770)

Replace _PyMem_IsFreed() function with _PyMem_IsPtrFreed() inline
function. The function is now way more efficient, it became a simple
comparison on integers, rather than a short loop. It detects also
uninitialized bytes and "forbidden bytes" filled by debug hooks
on memory allocators.

Add unit tests on _PyObject_IsFreed().

(cherry picked from commit 2b00db6855)

* bpo-36389: Change PyMem_SetupDebugHooks() constants (GH-12782)

Modify CLEANBYTE, DEADDYTE and FORBIDDENBYTE constants: use 0xCD,
0xDD and 0xFD, rather than 0xCB, 0xBB and 0xFB, to use the same byte
patterns than Windows CRT debug malloc() and free().

(cherry picked from commit 4c409beb4c)

bpo-32096: Remove obj and mem from _PyRuntime (#4532)
bpo-32096, bpo-30860:  Partially revert the commit
2ebc5ce42a8a9e047e790aefbf9a94811569b2b6:

* Move structures back from Include/internal/mem.h to
  Objects/obmalloc.c
* Remove _PyObject_Initialize() and _PyMem_Initialize()
* Remove Include/internal/pymalloc.h
* Add test_capi.test_pre_initialization_api():
   Make sure that it's possible to call Py_DecodeLocale(), and then call
   Py_SetProgramName() with the decoded string, before Py_Initialize().

PyMem_RawMalloc() and Py_DecodeLocale() can be called again before
_PyRuntimeState_Init().

brainfvck c75edabbb6 bpo-31558: Add gc.freeze() (#3705)
Freeze all the objects tracked by gc - move them to a permanent generation
and ignore all the future collections. This can be used before a POSIX
fork() call to make the gc copy-on-write friendly or to speed up collection.

Eric Snow 2ebc5ce42a bpo-30860: Consolidate stateful runtime globals. (#3397)
* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals

Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).
