* Replace malloc() with PyMem_RawMalloc()
* Replace PyMem_Malloc() with PyMem_RawMalloc() where the GIL is not held.
* _Py_char2wchar() now returns a buffer allocated by PyMem_RawMalloc(), instead
of PyMem_Malloc()

(which may be ASCII if no locale environment variable is set), to avoid
inconsistencies with os.fsencode() and os.fsdecode() functions which are
already using UTF-8/surrogateescape.

the locale encoding. If the LANG (and LC_ALL and LC_CTYPE) environment variable
is not set, the locale encoding is ISO-8859-1, whereas most programs (including
Python) expect UTF-8. Python already uses UTF-8 for the filesystem encoding and
to encode command line arguments on this OS.
_Py_char2wchar() callers usually need the result size in characters. Since it's
trivial to compute it in _Py_char2wchar() (O(1) whereas wcslen() is O(n)), add
an option to get it.
Python exits with a fatal error if the command line contains an undecodable
argument. PyUnicode_FromString() fails at the first undecodable byte because it
calls the error handler, but error handlers are not ready before Python
initialization.
This fixes issue #8441: python.c is not included
in the framework while main.c is and without this
patch you get a link error when building
Python.framework on OSX.
This can cause core dumps when Python runs. Python relies on the 754-
(and C99-) mandated default "non-stop" mode for FP exceptions. This
patch from Ben Laurie disables at least one FP exception on FreeBSD at
Python startup time.
