gh-103323: Get the "Current" Thread State from a Thread-Local Variable (gh-103324)
We replace _PyRuntime.tstate_current with a thread-local variable. As part of this change, we add a _Py_thread_local macro in pyport.h (only for the core runtime) to smooth out the compiler differences. The main motivation here is in support of a per-interpreter GIL, but this change also provides some performance improvement opportunities. Note that we do not provide a fallback to the thread-local, either falling back to the old tstate_current or to thread-specific storage (PyThread_tss_*()). If that proves problematic then we can circle back. I consider it unlikely, but will run the buildbots to double-check. Also note that this does not change any of the code related to the GILState API, where it uses a thread state stored in thread-specific storage. I suspect we can combine that with _Py_tss_tstate (from here). However, that can be addressed separately and is not urgent (nor critical). (While this change was mostly done independently, I did take some inspiration from earlier (~2020) work by @markshannon (main...markshannon:threadstate_in_tls) and @vstinner (#23976).)
