Module C state is now accessible from C-defined heap type methods (PEP 573).

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`.
Move the static inline function flavor of Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and
Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() to the internal C API: they access
PyThreadState attributes. The limited C API provides regular
functions which hide implementation details.
We make `|=` raise TypeError, since it would be surprising if `C.__dict__ |= {'x': 0}` silently did nothing, while `C.__dict__.update({'x': 0})` is an error.
The bulk of this patch was generated automatically with:
for name in \
PyObject_Vectorcall \
Py_TPFLAGS_HAVE_VECTORCALL \
PyObject_VectorcallMethod \
PyVectorcall_Function \
PyObject_CallOneArg \
PyObject_CallMethodNoArgs \
PyObject_CallMethodOneArg \

echo $name
git grep -lwz _$name | xargs -0 sed -i "s/\b_$name\b/$name/g"
done
old=_PyObject_FastCallDict
new=PyObject_VectorcallDict
git grep -lwz $old | xargs -0 sed -i "s/\b$old\b/$new/g"
and then cleaned up:
- Revert changes to in docs & news
- Revert changes to backcompat defines in headers
- Nudge misaligned comments
Additional note: the `method_check_args` function in `Objects/descrobject.c` is written in such a way that it applies to all kinds of descriptors. In particular, a future re-implementation of `wrapper_descriptor` could use that code.

Automerge-Triggered-By: @encukou
* Add _Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and _Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() which
require a tstate argument.
* Pass tstate to _Py_MakeRecCheck() and _Py_CheckRecursiveCall().
* Convert Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() macros
to static inline functions.
_PyThreadState_GET() is the most efficient way to get the tstate, and
so using it with _Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and
_Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() should be a little bit more efficient than
using Py_EnterRecursiveCall() and Py_LeaveRecursiveCall() which use
the "slower" PyThreadState_GET().
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.
* _PyTuple_ITEMS() gives access to the tuple->ob_item field and cast the
first argument to PyTupleObject*. This internal macro is only usable if
Py_BUILD_CORE is defined.
* Replace &PyTuple_GET_ITEM(ob, 0) with _PyTuple_ITEMS(ob).
* Replace PyTuple_GET_ITEM(op, 1) with &_PyTuple_ITEMS(ob)[1].
property_descr_get() uses a "cached" tuple to optimize function
calls. But this tuple can be discovered in debug mode with
sys.getobjects(). Remove the optimization, it's not really worth it
and it causes 3 different crashes last years.
Microbenchmark:
./python -m perf timeit -v \
-s "from collections import namedtuple; P = namedtuple('P', 'x y'); p = P(1, 2)" \
--duplicate 1024 "p.x"
Result:
Mean +- std dev: [ref] 32.8 ns +- 0.8 ns -> [patch] 40.4 ns +- 1.3 ns: 1.23x slower (+23%)
* The hash of BuiltinMethodType instances no longer depends on the hash
of __self__. It depends now on the hash of id(__self__).
* The hash and equality of ModuleType and MethodWrapperType instances no
longer depend on the hash and equality of __self__. They depend now on
the hash and equality of id(__self__).
* MethodWrapperType instances no longer support ordering.
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.
* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals
Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).
