This reverts commit 72a0d218dc.
The reverted commit had a few issues so it was unanimously decided
to undo it. See the bpo issue for details.
(cherry picked from commit 383b32fe10)
Co-authored-by: Yury Selivanov <yury@magic.io>
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.
Clarified the "At the moment" wording, and added the get_stats entry in the
module summary that Serhiy noted was missing at the end of issue 16351.
Given that pydoc lists all the function docstrings, I'm not sure that module
summary section is actually needed; but, it is probably better to address that
when the module is converted to use Argument Clinic. In the meantime we
should keep the list complete.

Issue #4688: Add a heuristic so that tuples and dicts containing only
untrackable objects are not tracked by the garbage collector. This can
reduce the size of collections and therefore the garbage collection overhead
on long-running programs, depending on their particular use of datatypes.
(trivia: this makes the "binary_trees" benchmark from the Computer Language
Shootout 40% faster)

Fix posix.fork1() / os.fork1() to only call PyOS_AfterFork() in the child
process rather than both parent and child.
Does anyone actually use fork1()? It appears to be a Solaris thing
but if Python is built with pthreads on Solaris, fork1() and fork()
should be the same.

Also removed a footnote about version 2.2, and a comment explaining some deleted code.
