Remove --with-experimental-isolated-subinterpreters configure option
in Python 3.9: the experiment continues in the master branch, but
it's no longer needed in 3.9.
When Python is built with experimental isolated interpreters, disable
the list free list.
Temporary workaround until this cache is made per-interpreter.
Remove the following function from the C API:
* PyAsyncGen_ClearFreeLists()
* PyContext_ClearFreeList()
* PyDict_ClearFreeList()
* PyFloat_ClearFreeList()
* PyFrame_ClearFreeList()
* PyList_ClearFreeList()
* PySet_ClearFreeList()
* PyTuple_ClearFreeList()
Make these functions private, move them to the internal C API and
change their return type to void.
Call explicitly PyGC_Collect() to free all free lists.
Note: PySet_ClearFreeList() did nothing.
Add _PyIndex_Check() function to the internal C API: fast inlined
verson of PyIndex_Check().
Add Include/internal/pycore_abstract.h header file.
Replace PyIndex_Check() with _PyIndex_Check() in C files of Objects
and Python subdirectories.
This implements things like `list[int]`,
which returns an object of type `types.GenericAlias`.
This object mostly acts as a proxy for `list`,
but has attributes `__origin__` and `__args__`
that allow recovering the parts (with values `list` and `(int,)`.
There is also an approximate notion of type variables;
e.g. `list[T]` has a `__parameters__` attribute equal to `(T,)`.
Type variables are objects of type `typing.TypeVar`.
Speed up calls to list() by using the PEP 590 vectorcall
calling convention. Patch by Mark Shannon.

The actual overflow can never happen because of the following:
* The size of a list can't be greater than PY_SSIZE_T_MAX / sizeof(PyObject*).
* The size of a pointer on all supported plaftorms is at least 4 bytes.
* ofs is positive and less than the list size at the beginning of each iteration.

Add new trashcan macros to deal with a double deallocation that could occur when the `tp_dealloc` of a subclass calls the `tp_dealloc` of a base class and that base class uses the trashcan mechanism.
Patch by Jeroen Demeyer.
There is already a `Py_ssize_t i` defined at function scope that is used
for similar loops. By removing the local `int i` declaration that `i` is
used, which has the appropriate type.
The accu.h header is no longer part of the Python C API: it has been
moved to the "internal" headers which are restricted to Python
itself.
Replace #include "accu.h" with #include "pycore_accu.h".
The list() constructor isn't taking full advantage of known input
lengths or length hints. This commit makes the constructor
pre-size and not over-allocate when the input size is known (the
input collection implements __len__). One on the main advantages is
that this provides 12% difference in memory savings due to the difference
between overallocating and allocating exactly the input size.
For efficiency purposes and to avoid a performance regression for small
generators and collections, the size of the input object is calculated using
__len__ and not __length_hint__, as the later is considerably slower.
METH_NOARGS functions need only a single argument but they are cast
into a PyCFunction, which takes two arguments. This triggers an
invalid function cast warning in gcc8 due to the argument mismatch.
Fix this by adding a dummy unused argument.
Py_Main() now handles two more -X options:
* -X showrefcount: new _PyCoreConfig.show_ref_count field
* -X showalloccount: new _PyCoreConfig.show_alloc_count field
