bpo-42197: Don't create f_locals dictionary unless we actually need it. (GH-32055)

* `PyFrame_FastToLocalsWithError` and `PyFrame_LocalsToFast` are no longer called during profile and tracing.
 (Contributed by Fabio Zadrozny)

* Make accesses to a frame's `f_locals` safe from C code, not relying on calls to `PyFrame_FastToLocals` or `PyFrame_LocalsToFast`.

* Document new `PyFrame_GetLocals` C-API function.

computed lazily. The :c:func:`PyFrame_GetBack` function must be called
instead.
Debuggers that accessed the ``f_locals`` directly *must* call
`:c:func:`PyFrame_GetLocals` instead. They no longer need to call
`:c:func:`PyFrame_FastToLocalsWithError` or :c:func:`PyFrame_LocalsToFast`,
in fact they should not call those functions. The necessary updating of the
frame is now managed by the virtual machine.
