Add a new _testinternalcapi module to test the internal C API.
Move _Py_GetConfigsAsDict() function to the internal C API:
_testembed now uses _testinternalcapi to access the function.
* Add _Py_GetConfigsAsDict() function to get all configurations as a
dict.
* dump_config() of _testembed.c now dumps preconfig as a separated
key: call _Py_GetConfigsAsDict().
* Make _PyMainInterpreterConfig_AsDict() private.
Fix sparse file tests of test_tarfile on ppc64le with the tmpfs
filesystem.
Fix the function testing if the filesystem supports sparse files:
create a file which contains data and "holes", instead of creating a
file which contains no data.
tmpfs effective block size is a page size (tmpfs lives in the page
cache). RHEL uses 64 KiB pages on aarch64, ppc64 and ppc64le, only
s390x and x86_64 use 4 KiB pages, whereas the test punch holes of
4 KiB.
test.pythoninfo: Add resource.getpagesize().
The subprocess module can now use the os.posix_spawn() function
in some cases for better performance. Currently, it is only used on macOS
and Linux (using glibc 2.24 or newer) if all these conditions are met:
* executable path contains a directory
* close_fds=False
* preexec_fn, pass_fds, cwd, stdin, stdout, stderr
and start_new_session parameters are not set

When compiling 3rd party C extensions, the linker flags used by the
compiler for the interpreter and the stdlib modules, will get
leaked into distutils. In order to avoid that, the PY_CORE_LDFLAGS
and PY_LDFLAGS_NODIST are introduced to keep those flags separated.
On Travis CI, FTP tests of test_urllib2net randomly fail with "425
Security: Bad IP connecting".
test.pythoninfo now also logs TRAVIS environment variable.
* Fix _PyCoreConfig_SetGlobalConfig(): set also Py_FrozenFlag
* Fix _PyCoreConfig_AsDict(): export also xoptions
* Add _Py_GetGlobalVariablesAsDict() and _testcapi.get_global_config()
* test.pythoninfo: dump also global configuration variables
* _testembed now serializes global, core and main configurations
using JSON to reuse _Py_GetGlobalVariablesAsDict(),
_PyCoreConfig_AsDict() and _PyMainInterpreterConfig_AsDict(),
rather than duplicating code.
* test_embed.InitConfigTests now test much more configuration
variables
* Fix _PyMainInterpreterConfig_Copy():
copy 'install_signal_handlers' attribute
* Add _PyMainInterpreterConfig_AsDict()
* Add unit tests on the main interpreter configuration
to test_embed.InitConfigTests
* test.pythoninfo: log also main_config
* Add _testcapi.get_coreconfig() to get the _PyCoreConfig of the
interpreter
* test.pythoninfo now gets the core configuration using
_testcapi.get_coreconfig()
* Fix also PyInit__gdbm() to catch errors.
* test.pythoninfo: add gdbm.version
* test_dbm_gnu now logs GDBM_VERSION when run in verbose mode.
* pythoninfo: rename function to collect_gdbm()
* Fix _PyMem_SetupAllocators("debug"): always restore allocators to
the defaults, rather than only caling _PyMem_SetupDebugHooks().
* Add _PyMem_SetDefaultAllocator() helper to set the "default"
allocator.
* Add _PyMem_GetAllocatorsName(): get the name of the allocators
* main() now uses debug hooks on memory allocators if Py_DEBUG is
defined, rather than calling directly malloc()
* Document default memory allocators in C API documentation
* _Py_InitializeCore() now fails with a fatal user error if
PYTHONMALLOC value is an unknown memory allocator, instead of
failing with a fatal internal error.
* Add new tests on the PYTHONMALLOC environment variable
* Add support.with_pymalloc()
* Add the _testcapi.WITH_PYMALLOC constant and expose it as
support.with_pymalloc().
* sysconfig.get_config_var('WITH_PYMALLOC') doesn't work on Windows, so
replace it with support.with_pymalloc().
* pythoninfo: add _testcapi collector for pymem
* Add Lib/test/pythoninfo.py: script collecting various informations
about Python to help debugging test failures.
* regrtest: remove sys.hash_info and sys.flags from header.
* Travis CI, Appveyor: run pythoninfo before tests
