* bpo-36389: _PyObject_CheckConsistency() available in release mode (GH-16612)
bpo-36389, bpo-38376: The _PyObject_CheckConsistency() function is
now also available in release mode. For example, it can be used to
debug a crash in the visit_decref() function of the GC.
Modify the following functions to also work in release mode:
* _PyDict_CheckConsistency()
* _PyObject_CheckConsistency()
* _PyType_CheckConsistency()
* _PyUnicode_CheckConsistency()
Other changes:
* _PyMem_IsPtrFreed(ptr) now also returns 1 if ptr is NULL
(equals to 0).
* _PyBytesWriter_CheckConsistency() now returns 1 and is only used
with assert().
* Reorder _PyObject_Dump() to write safe fields first, and only
attempt to render repr() at the end.
(cherry picked from commit 6876257eaa)
* bpo-36389: Fix _PyBytesWriter in release mode (GH-16624)
Fix _PyBytesWriter API when Python is built in release mode with
assertions.
(cherry picked from commit 60ec6efd96)
* bpo-38070: Enhance visit_decref() debug trace (GH-16631)
subtract_refs() now pass the parent object to visit_decref() which
pass it to _PyObject_ASSERT(). So if the "is freed" assertion fails,
the parent is used in debug trace, rather than the freed object. The
parent object is more likely to contain useful information. Freed
objects cannot be inspected are are displayed as "<object at xxx is
freed>" with no other detail.
(cherry picked from commit 4d5f94b8cd)
* Fix also a typo in PYMEM_DEADBYTE macro comment
* bpo-36389: Add newline to _PyObject_AssertFailed() (GH-16629)
Add a newline between the verbose object dump and the Py_FatalError()
logs for readability.

PyConfig_InitPythonConfig() and PyConfig_InitIsolatedConfig() no
longer return PyStatus: they cannot fail anymore.
(cherry picked from commit 8462a4936b)
Co-authored-by: Victor Stinner <vstinner@redhat.com>
For now, we'll rely on the fact that the config structures aren't covered by the stable ABI.
We may revisit this in the future if we further explore the idea of offering a stable embedding API.
Fix warnings options priority: PyConfig.warnoptions has the highest
priority, as stated in the PEP 587.
* Document options order in PyConfig.warnoptions documentation.
* Make PyWideStringList_INIT macro private: replace "Py" prefix
with "_Py".
* test_embed: add test_init_warnoptions().
(cherry picked from commit fb4ae152a9)

Add a new struct_size field to PyPreConfig and PyConfig structures to
allow to modify these structures in the future without breaking the
backward compatibility.
* Replace private _config_version field with public struct_size field
in PyPreConfig and PyConfig.
* Public PyPreConfig_InitIsolatedConfig() and
PyPreConfig_InitPythonConfig()
return type becomes PyStatus, instead of void.
* Internal _PyConfig_InitCompatConfig(),
_PyPreConfig_InitCompatConfig(), _PyPreConfig_InitFromConfig(),
_PyPreConfig_InitFromPreConfig() return type becomes PyStatus,
instead of void.
* Remove _Py_CONFIG_VERSION
* Update the Initialization Configuration documentation.
(cherry picked from commit 441b10cf28)
* bpo-38234: Py_SetPath() uses the program full path (GH-16357)
Py_SetPath() now sets sys.executable to the program full path
(Py_GetProgramFullPath()), rather than to the program name
(Py_GetProgramName()).
Fix also memory leaks in pathconfig_set_from_config().
(cherry picked from commit 1ce152a42e)
* bpo-38234: Add tests for Python init path config (GH-16358)
(cherry picked from commit bb6bf7d342)
* bpo-38234: test_embed: test pyvenv.cfg and pybuilddir.txt (GH-16366)
Add test_init_pybuilddir() and test_init_pyvenv_cfg() to test_embed
to test pyvenv.cfg and pybuilddir.txt configuration files.
Fix sysconfig._generate_posix_vars(): pybuilddir.txt uses UTF-8
encoding, not ASCII.
(cherry picked from commit 52ad33abbf)
* bpo-38234: Cleanup getpath.c (GH-16367)
* search_for_prefix() directly calls reduce() if found is greater
than 0.
* Add calculate_pybuilddir() subfunction.
* search_for_prefix(): add path string buffer for readability.
* Fix some error handling code paths: release resources on error.
* calculate_read_pyenv(): rename tmpbuffer to filename.
* test.pythoninfo now also logs windows.dll_path
(cherry picked from commit 221fd84703)
* bpo-38234: Fix test_embed pathconfig tests (GH-16390)
bpo-38234: On macOS and FreeBSD, the temporary directory can be
symbolic link. For example, /tmp can be a symbolic link to /var/tmp.
Call realpath() to resolve all symbolic links.
(cherry picked from commit 00508a7407)
* bpo-38234: Add test_init_setpath_config() to test_embed (GH-16402)
* Add test_embed.test_init_setpath_config(): test Py_SetPath()
with PyConfig.
* test_init_setpath() and test_init_setpythonhome() no longer call
Py_SetProgramName(), but use the default program name.
* _PyPathConfig: isolated, site_import and base_executable
fields are now only available on Windows.
* If executable is set explicitly in the configuration, ignore
calculated base_executable: _PyConfig_InitPathConfig() copies
executable to base_executable.
* Complete path config documentation.
(cherry picked from commit 8bf39b606e)
* bpo-38234: Complete init config documentation (GH-16404)
(cherry picked from commit 88feaecd46)
* bpo-38234: Fix test_embed.test_init_setpath_config() on FreeBSD (GH-16406)
Explicitly preinitializes with a Python preconfiguration to avoid
Py_SetPath() implicit preinitialization with a compat
preconfiguration.
Fix also test_init_setpath() and test_init_setpythonhome() on macOS:
use self.test_exe as the executable (and base_executable), rather
than shutil.which('python3').
(cherry picked from commit 49d99f01e6)
* bpo-38234: Py_Initialize() sets global path configuration (GH-16421)
* Py_InitializeFromConfig() now writes PyConfig path configuration to
the global path configuration (_Py_path_config).

* Fix typo in _PyWideStringList_Join().
(cherry picked from commit 12f2f177fc)
Python now dumps path configuration if it fails to import the Python
codecs of the filesystem and stdio encodings.
(cherry picked from commit fcdb027234)
* bpo-38234: Remove _PyPathConfig.dll_path (GH-16307)
The DLL path is not computed from any user configuration and cannot
be configured by PyConfig. Instead, add a new _Py_dll_path global variable.
Remove _PyConfig_SetPathConfig(): replaced with _PyPathConfig_Init().
Py_Initialize() now longer sets the "global path configuration",
but only initialize _Py_dll_path.
(cherry picked from commit c422167749)
* bpo-38234: Fix PyConfig_Read() when Py_SetPath() was called (GH-16298)
* If Py_SetPath() has been called, _PyConfig_InitPathConfig() now
uses its value.
* Py_Initialize() now longer copies path configuration from PyConfig
to the global path configuration (_Py_path_config).
(cherry picked from commit e267793aa4)
* bpo-38070: _Py_DumpTraceback() writes <no Python frame> (GH-16244)
When a Python thread has no frame, _Py_DumpTraceback() and
_Py_DumpTracebackThreads() now write "<no Python frame>", rather than
writing nothing.
(cherry picked from commit 8fa3e1740b)
* bpo-38070: Enhance _PyObject_Dump() (GH-16243)
_PyObject_Dump() now dumps the object address for freed objects and
objects with ob_type=NULL.

Declare Py_BytesMain() in Include/pylifecycle.h, rather in
Include/internal/pycore_pylifecycle.h.
(cherry picked from commit 9a943b4ce1)

- drop TargetScopeError in favour of raising SyntaxError directly
as per the updated PEP 572
- comprehension iteration variables are explicitly local, but
named expression targets in comprehensions are nonlocal or
global. Raise SyntaxError as specified in PEP 572
- named expression targets in the outermost iterable of a
comprehension have an ambiguous target scope. Avoid resolving
that question now by raising SyntaxError. PEP 572
originally required this only for cases where the bound name
conflicts with the iteration variable in the comprehension,
but CPython can't easily restrict the exception to that case
(as it doesn't know the target variable names when visiting
the outermost iterator expression)
(cherry picked from commit 5dbe0f59b7)
PyConfig_Read() is now responsible to handle early calls to
PySys_AddXOption() and PySys_AddWarnOption().
Options added by PySys_AddXOption() are now handled the same way than
PyConfig.xoptions and command line -X options.
For example, PySys_AddXOption(L"faulthandler") enables faulthandler
as expected.
(cherry picked from commit 120b707a6d)
bpo-37834: Normalise handling of reparse points on Windows
* ntpath.realpath() and nt.stat() will traverse all supported reparse points (previously was mixed)
* nt.lstat() will let the OS traverse reparse points that are not name surrogates (previously would not traverse any reparse point)
* nt.[l]stat() will only set S_IFLNK for symlinks (previous behaviour)
* nt.readlink() will read destinations for symlinks and junction points only
bpo-1311: os.path.exists('nul') now returns True on Windows
* nt.stat('nul').st_mode is now S_IFCHR (previously was an error)
Add PyCode_NewEx to be used internally and set PyCode_New as a compatibility wrapper
(cherry picked from commit 4a2edc34a4)

sys._base_executable is now always defined on all platforms, and can be overridden through configuration.
Also adds test.support.PythonSymlink to encapsulate platform-specific logic for symlinking sys.executable
