This PR implements a fix for `multiprocessing.Process` objects; the error occurs when Processes are created using either `fork` or `forkserver` as the `start_method`.
In these instances, the `MainThread` of the newly created `Process` object retains all attributes from its parent's `MainThread` object, including the `native_id` attribute. The resulting behavior is such that the new process' `MainThread` captures an incorrect/outdated `native_id` (the parent's instead of its own).
This change forces the Process object to update its `native_id` attribute during the bootstrap process.

Multiprocessing test test_mymanager() now also expects -SIGTERM, not
only exitcode 0.
bpo-30356: BaseManager._finalize_manager() sends SIGTERM to the
manager process if it takes longer than 1 second to stop, which
happens on slow buildbots.
With the addition of shared memory into Python 3.8, we now have three tests failing on Solaris, namely `test_multiprocessing_fork`, `test_multiprocessing_forkserver` and `test_multiprocessing_spawn`. The reason seems to be incorrect name handling which results in two slashes being prepended.

multiprocessing tests now stop the ForkServer instance if it's
running: close the "alive" file descriptor to ask the server to stop
and then remove its UNIX address.
multiprocessing tests now call explicitly _run_finalizers() to remove
immediately temporary directories created by
multiprocessing.util.get_temp_dir().
The multiprocessing.resource_tracker replaces the multiprocessing.semaphore_tracker module. Other than semaphores, resource_tracker also tracks shared_memory segments. Patch by Pierre Glaser.
* Added tests for shared_memory submodule.

* Fix bug in allocationn size during creation of empty ShareableList illuminated by existing test run on Linux.
* Initial set of docs for shared_memory module.
* Added docs for ShareableList, added doctree entry for shared_memory submodule, name refactoring for greater clarity.
* Added examples to SharedMemoryManager docs, for ease of documentation switched away from exclusively registered functions to some explicit methods on SharedMemoryManager.
* Wording tweaks to docs.
* Fix test failures on Windows.
* Added tests around SharedMemoryManager.
* Documentation tweaks.
* Fix inappropriate test on Windows.
* Further documentation tweaks.
* Fix bare exception.
* Removed __copyright__.
* Fixed typo in doc, removed comment.
* Updated SharedMemoryManager preliminary tests to reflect change of not supporting all registered functions on SyncManager.
* Added Sphinx doctest run controls.
* CloseHandle should be in a finally block in case MapViewOfFile fails.

Provide shm_open() and shm_unlink() functions. Move other
functionality into the shared_memory.py module.

Changes in this commit:
1. Use a _strong_ reference between the Pool and associated iterators
2. Rework PR #8450 to eliminate a cycle in the Pool.
There is no test in this commit because any test that automatically tests this behaviour needs to eliminate the pool before joining the pool to check that the pool object is garbaged collected/does not hang. But doing this will potentially leak threads and processes (see https://bugs.python.org/issue35413).
Replace time.time() with time.monotonic() in tests to measure time
delta.
test_zipfile64: display progress every minute (60 secs) rather than
every 5 minutes (5*60 seconds).
Join 3 pools in these tests:
* test.test_multiprocessing_spawn.WithProcessesTestPool.test_context
* test.test_multiprocessing_spawn.WithProcessesTestPool.test_traceback
Fix WithThreadsTestPool.test_wrapped_exception()
of test_multiprocessing_fork: join the pool.
WithThreadsTestPool.test_del_pool() is now also decorated
with @support.reap_threads.
Tests involving sending signals to the semaphore_tracker will not fail anymore due to
the fact that running the test suite with -Werror propagates warnings as errors.
Fix a missing assertion when the semaphore_tracker is expected to die.
Fix a reference issue inside multiprocessing.Pool that caused the pool to remain alive if it was deleted without being closed or terminated explicitly.
Fail `test_semaphore_tracker_sigint` if no warnings are expected and one is received.
Fix race condition when the child receives SIGINT before it can register signal handlers for it.
The race condition occurs when the parent calls
`_semaphore_tracker.ensure_running()` (which in turn spawns the
semaphore_tracker using `_posixsubprocess.fork_exec`), the child
registers the signal handlers and the parent tries to kill the child.
What seem to happen is that in some slow systems, the parent sends the
signal to kill the child before the child protects against the signal.
Multiprocessing test_timeout() now accepts a delta of 100 ms instead
of just 50 ms, since the test failed with 135.8 ms instead of the
expected 200 ms.
Fix test_forkserver_sigkill() of test_multiprocessing_forkserver:
give more time to the first child process to complete, double the
sleep in the parent process.
Reduce also the child process sleep from 1000 ms to 500 ms, to not change
the total duration of the test.
When hunting memory leaks using -R 3:3, test_imap_unordered() of
test_multiprocessing leaks randomly a few memory blocks. It is a
false alarm: when testing using -R 3:20 for example, no leak is
detected.
Modify test_imap_unordered() to be closer to test_imap():
* Only test 10 numbers instead of 1000: it's a pool of 4 processes, so
10 is enough to test at least one number per process
* Use chunksize=100 instead of chunksize=53 to mimick test_imap()
test_mymanager_context() now also accepts -SIGTERM as an expected
exitcode for the manager process. The process is killed with SIGTERM
if it takes longer than 1 second to stop.
Tolerate a different of 50 ms, instead of just 30 ms, in
test_timeout() of multiprocessing tests. This change should fix such
test failure on Windows:
FAIL: test_timeout (test.test_multiprocessing_spawn.WithProcessesTestQueue)
