Remove --with-experimental-isolated-subinterpreters configure option
in Python 3.9: the experiment continues in the master branch, but
it's no longer needed in 3.9.
(Note: PEP 554 is not accepted and the implementation in the code base is a private one for use in the test suite.)
If code running in a subinterpreter raises an uncaught exception then the "run" call in the calling interpreter fails. A RunFailedError is raised there that summarizes the original exception as a string. The actual exception type, __cause__, __context__, state, etc. are all discarded. This turned out to be functionally insufficient in practice. There is a more helpful solution (and PEP 554 has been updated appropriately).
This change adds the exception propagation behavior described in PEP 554 to the _xxsubinterpreters module. With this change a copy of the original exception is set to __cause__ on the RunFailedError. For now we are using "pickle", which preserves the exception's state. We also preserve the original __cause__, __context__, and __traceback__ (since "pickle" does not preserve those).

An isolated subinterpreter cannot spawn threads, spawn a child
process or call os.fork().
* Add private _Py_NewInterpreter(isolated_subinterpreter) function.
* Add isolated=True keyword-only parameter to
_xxsubinterpreters.create().
* Allow again os.fork() in "non-isolated" subinterpreters.
This allows the caller to avoid creation of an exception when the channel is empty (just like `dict.get()` works). `ChannelEmptyError` is still raised if no default is provided.
Automerge-Triggered-By: @ericsnowcurrently
* Replace PY_INT64_T with int64_t
* Replace PY_UINT32_T with uint32_t
* Replace PY_UINT64_T with uint64_t
sha3module.c no longer checks if PY_UINT64_T is defined since it's
always defined and uint64_t is always available on platforms
supported by Python.
_tracemalloc.c and _xxsubinterpretersmodule.c use
PyThreadState_GetFrame() and PyThreadState_GetInterpreter() to no
longer depend on the PyThreadState structure.
* Rename _PyInterpreterState_Get() to PyInterpreterState_Get() and
move it the limited C API.
* Add _PyInterpreterState_Get() alias to PyInterpreterState_Get() for
backward compatibility with Python 3.8.
Clear the current thread later in the Python finalization.
* The PyInterpreterState_Delete() function is now responsible
to call PyThreadState_Swap(NULL).
* The tstate_delete_common() function is now responsible to clear the
"autoTSSKey" thread local storage and it only clears it once the
thread state is fully cleared. It allows to still get the current
thread from TSS in tstate_delete_common().
* Fix a crash in comparing with float (and maybe other crashes).
* They are now never equal to strings and non-integer numbers.
* Comparison with a large number no longer raises OverflowError.
* Arbitrary exceptions no longer silenced in constructors and comparisons.
* TypeError raised in the constructor contains now the name of the type.
* Accept only ChannelID and int-like objects in channel functions.
* Accept only InterpreterId, int-like objects and str in the InterpreterId constructor.
* Accept int-like objects, not just int in interpreter related functions.

Fix invalid function cast warnings with gcc 8
for method conventions different from METH_NOARGS, METH_O and
METH_VARARGS excluding Argument Clinic generated code.
All the subinterpreter tests were disabled in gh-7513. This commit re-enables them, but leaves one bad test disabled. The test is partly causing problems because it makes assumptions about the availability of a high-level interpreters module (see PEP 554). So I'm disabling the test until such a high-level module is available.
For bpo-32604 I added extra subinterpreter-related tests (see #6914), which caused a few buildbots to crash. This patch fixes the crash by ensuring that refcounts in channels are handled properly.
METH_NOARGS functions need only a single argument but they are cast
into a PyCFunction, which takes two arguments. This triggers an
invalid function cast warning in gcc8 due to the argument mismatch.
Fix this by adding a dummy unused argument.
The CPython runtime assumes that there is a one-to-one relationship (for a given interpreter) between PyThreadState and OS threads. Sending and receiving on a channel in the same interpreter was causing crashes because of this (specifically due to a check in PyThreadState_Swap()). The solution is to not switch threads if the interpreter is the same.
