If ctypes fails to convert the result of a callback or if a ctypes
callback function raises an exception, sys.unraisablehook is now
called with an exception set. Previously, the error was logged into
stderr by PyErr_Print().

ctypes now raises an ArgumentError when a callback
is invoked with more than 1024 arguments.
The ctypes module allocates arguments on the stack in
ctypes_callproc() using alloca(), which is problematic
when large numbers of arguments are passed. Instead
of a stack overflow, this commit raises an ArgumentError
if more than 1024 parameters are passed.

Although the underlying libffi issue remains open, adding these
checks have caused problems in third-party projects which are in
widespread use. See the issue for examples.
The corresponding tests have also been skipped.

Fix a ctypes regression of Python 3.8. When a ctypes.Structure is
passed by copy to a function, ctypes internals created a temporary
object which had the side effect of calling the structure finalizer
(__del__) twice. The Python semantics requires a finalizer to be
called exactly once. Fix ctypes internals to no longer call the
finalizer twice.
Create a new internal StructParam_Type which is only used by
_ctypes_callproc() to call PyMem_Free(ptr) on Py_DECREF(argument).
StructUnionType_paramfunc() creates such object.

* sys.unraisablehook: add 'err_msg' field to UnraisableHookArgs.
* Use _PyErr_WriteUnraisableMsg() in _ctypes _DictRemover_call()
and gc delete_garbage().
The final addition (cur += step) may overflow, so use size_t for "cur".
"cur" is always positive (even for negative steps), so it is safe to use
size_t here.

Set type_attr to NULL after the assignment to stgdict->proto (like
what is done with stgdict after the Py_SETREF() call) so that it is
not decrefed twice on error.
LoadLibrary, GetProcAddress, FreeLibrary and GetModuleHandle acquire the system loader lock. Calling these while holding the GIL will cause a deadlock on the rare occasion that another thread is detaching and needs to destroy its thread state at the same time.
This test case needs "signed short" bitfields, but the
IBM XLC compiler (on AIX) does not support this.
Skip the code and test when AIX and XLC are used.
Use __xlc__ as identifier to detect the XLC compiler.
* bpo-31572: Get rid of PyObject_HasAttrString() in ctypes.
* Fix error handling for _pack_.
* Don't silence errors when look up in a dict.
* Use _PyObject_LookupAttrId().
* More changes.
Adds configure flags for msan and ubsan builds to make it easier to enable.
These also encode the detail that address sanitizer and memory sanitizer
should disable pymalloc.
Define MEMORY_SANITIZER when appropriate at build time and adds workarounds
to existing code to mark things as initialized where the sanitizer is otherwise unable to
determine that. This lets our build succeed under the memory sanitizer. not all tests
pass without sanitizer failures yet but we're in pretty good shape after this.
Raise ValueError OverflowError in case of a negative
_length_ in a ctypes.Array subclass. Also raise TypeError
instead of AttributeError for non-integer _length_.
