gh-96092: Fix traceback.walk_stack(None) skipping too many frames (#129330)
As it says in its documentation, walk_stack was meant to just follow `f.f_back` like other functions in the traceback module. Instead it was previously doing `f.f_back.f_back` and then this changed to `f_back.f_back.f_back.f_back' in Python 3.11 breaking its behavior for external users. This happened because the walk_stack function never really had any good direct tests and its only consumer in the traceback module was `extract_stack` which passed the result into `StackSummary.extract`. As a generator, it was previously capturing the state of the stack when it was first iterated over, rather than the stack when `walk_stack` was called. Meaning when called inside the two method deep `extract` and `extract_stack` calls, two `f_back`s were needed. When 3.11 modified the sequence of calls in `extract`, two more `f_back`s were needed to make the tests happy. This changes the generator to capture the stack when `walk_stack` is called, rather than when it is first iterated over. Since this is technically a breaking change in behavior, there is a versionchanged to the documentation. In practice, this is unlikely to break anyone, you would have been needing to store the result of `walk_stack` and expecting it to change.

Fix bug in :func:`traceback.walk_stack` called with None where it was skipping
|
||||
more frames than in prior versions. This bug fix also changes walk_stack to
|
||||
walk the stack in the frame where it was called rather than where it first gets
|
||||
used.
