Issue #26564:
* Expose _Py_DumpASCII() and _Py_DumpDecimal() in traceback.h
* Change the type of the second _Py_DumpASCII() parameter from int to unsigned
long
* Rewrite _Py_DumpDecimal() and dump_hexadecimal() to write directly characters
in the expected order, avoid the need of reversing the string.
* dump_hexadecimal() limits width to the size of the buffer
* _Py_DumpASCII() does nothing if the object is not a Unicode string
* dump_frame() wrtites "???" as the line number if the line number is negative
* Add Lib/test/signalinterproctester.py
* Don't disable the garbage collector anymore
* Don't use os.fork() with a subprocess to not inherit existing signal handlers
or threads: start from a fresh process
* Don't use UNIX kill command to send a signal but Python os.kill()
* Use a timeout of 10 seconds to wait for the signal instead of 1 second
* Always use signal.pause(), instead of time.wait(1), to wait for a signal
* Use context manager on subprocess.Popen
* remove code to retry on EINTR: it's no more needed since the PEP 475
* remove unused function exit_subprocess()
* Cleanup the code
Issue #10915, #15751, #26558:
* PyGILState_Check() now returns 1 (success) before the creation of the GIL and
after the destruction of the GIL. It allows to use the function early in
Python initialization and late in Python finalization.
* Add a flag to disable PyGILState_Check(). Disable PyGILState_Check() when
Py_NewInterpreter() is called
* Add assert(PyGILState_Check()) to: _Py_dup(), _Py_fstat(), _Py_read()
and _Py_write()
Issue #26558: If Py_FatalError() is called without the GIL, don't try to print
the current exception, nor try to flush stdout and stderr: only dump the
traceback of Python threads.

Issue #26516:
* Add PYTHONMALLOC environment variable to set the Python memory
allocators and/or install debug hooks.
* PyMem_SetupDebugHooks() can now also be used on Python compiled in release
mode.
* The PYTHONMALLOCSTATS environment variable can now also be used on Python
compiled in release mode. It now has no effect if set to an empty string.
* In debug mode, debug hooks are now also installed on Python memory allocators
when Python is configured without pymalloc.
Revert:
"Always test datetime.strftime("%4Y")
Issue #13305: Always test datetime.datetime.strftime("%4Y") for years < 1900."
In fact, strftime("%4Y") fails on most platforms.
