bpo-20443: _PyConfig_Read() gets the absolute path of run_filename (GH-14053)
Python now gets the absolute path of the script filename specified on
the command line (ex: "python3 script.py"): the __file__ attribute of
the __main__ module, sys.argv[0] and sys.path[0] become an absolute
path, rather than a relative path.

* Add _Py_isabs() and _Py_abspath() functions.
* _PyConfig_Read() now tries to get the absolute path of
  run_filename, but keeps the relative path if _Py_abspath() fails.
* Reimplement os._getfullpathname() using _Py_abspath().
* Use _Py_isabs() in getpath.c.
