[3.12] gh-104690 Disallow thread creation and fork at interpreter finalization (GH-104826) (#105277)

gh-104690 Disallow thread creation and fork at interpreter finalization (GH-104826)

Disallow thread creation and fork at interpreter finalization.

in the following functions, check if interpreter is finalizing and raise `RuntimeError` with appropriate message:
* `_thread.start_new_thread` and thus `threading`
* `posix.fork`
* `posix.fork1`
* `posix.forkpty`
* `_posixsubprocess.fork_exec` when a `preexec_fn=` is supplied.
