* The first line of Python script could be executed twice when the source
encoding (not equal to 'utf-8') was specified on the second line.
* Now the source encoding declaration on the second line isn't effective if
the first line contains anything except a comment.
* As a consequence, 'python -x' works now again with files with the source
encoding declarations specified on the second file, and can be used again
to make Python batch files on Windows.
* The tokenize module now ignore the source encoding declaration on the second
line if the first line contains anything except a comment.
* IDLE now ignores the source encoding declaration on the second line if the
first line contains anything except a comment.
* 2to3 and the findnocoding.py script now ignore the source encoding
declaration on the second line if the first line contains anything except
a comment.

The GIL must be held to call PyMem_Malloc(), whereas PyOS_Readline() releases
the GIL to read input.
The result of the C callback PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer must now be a string
allocated by PyMem_RawMalloc() or PyMem_RawRealloc() (or NULL if an error
occurred), instead of a string allocated by PyMem_Malloc() or PyMem_Realloc().
Fixing this issue was required to setup a hook on PyMem_Malloc(), for example
using the tracemalloc module.
PyOS_Readline() copies the result of PyOS_ReadlineFunctionPointer() into a new
buffer allocated by PyMem_Malloc(). So the public API of PyOS_Readline() does
not change.
1. Make it work when invoked directly from the command-line. It was failing
due to a couple of stale function/class usages in the __main__ section.
2. Close the parsed file in the parse() function after opening it.
