Make a non-Py_DEBUG, asserts-enabled build of CPython possible. This means
making sure helper functions are defined when NDEBUG is not defined, not
just when Py_DEBUG is defined.
Also fix a division-by-zero in obmalloc.c that went unnoticed because in
Py_DEBUG mode, elsize is never zero.

* bpo-29942: Fix the use of recursion in itertools.chain.from_iterable.
Fix the use of recursion in itertools.chain.from_iterable. Using recursion
is unnecessary, and can easily cause stack overflows, especially when
building in low optimization modes or with Py_DEBUG enabled.
(cherry picked from commit 5466d4af5f)
The presence of the ``--enable-optimizations`` flag is indicated by the
value of ``$enableval``, but the configure script was checking ``$withval``,
resulting in the ``--enable-optimizations`` flag being effectively ignored.

* bpo-29861: release references to multiprocessing Pool tasks
Release references to tasks, their arguments and their results as soon
as they are finished, instead of keeping them alive until another task
arrives.

(cherry picked from commit e9213d929d)
Directory and zipfile execution previously added
the parent directory of the directory or zipfile
as sys.path[0] and then subsequently overwrote
it with the directory or zipfile itself.
This caused problems in isolated mode, as it
overwrote the "stdlib as a zip archive" entry
in sys.path, as the parent directory was
never added.
The attempted fix to that issue in bpo-29319
created the opposite problem in *non*-isolated
mode, by potentially leaving the parent
directory on sys.path instead of overwriting it.
This change fixes the root cause of the problem
by removing the whole "add-and-overwrite" dance
for sys.path[0], and instead simply never adds
the parent directory to sys.path in the first
place.
