Newly supported interpreter definition syntax:
- `op(NAME, (input_stack_effects -- output_stack_effects)) { ... }`
- `macro(NAME) = OP1 + OP2;`
Also some other random improvements:
- Convert `WITH_EXCEPT_START` to use stack effects
- Fix lexer to balk at unrecognized characters, e.g. `@`
- Fix moved output names; support object pointers in cache
- Introduce `error()` method to print errors
- Introduce read_uint16(p) as equivalent to `*p`

The ``structmember.h`` header is deprecated, though it continues to be available
and there are no plans to remove it. There are no deprecation warnings. Old code
can stay unchanged (unless the extra include and non-namespaced macros bother
you greatly). Specifically, no uses in CPython are updated -- that would just be
unnecessary churn.
The ``structmember.h`` header is deprecated, though it continues to be
available and there are no plans to remove it.
Its contents are now available just by including ``Python.h``,
with a ``Py`` prefix added if it was missing:
- `PyMemberDef`, `PyMember_GetOne` and`PyMember_SetOne`
- Type macros like `Py_T_INT`, `Py_T_DOUBLE`, etc.
(previously ``T_INT``, ``T_DOUBLE``, etc.)
- The flags `Py_READONLY` (previously ``READONLY``) and
`Py_AUDIT_READ` (previously all uppercase)
Several items are not exposed from ``Python.h``:
- `T_OBJECT` (use `Py_T_OBJECT_EX`)
- `T_NONE` (previously undocumented, and pretty quirky)
- The macro ``WRITE_RESTRICTED`` which does nothing.
- The macros ``RESTRICTED`` and ``READ_RESTRICTED``, equivalents of
`Py_AUDIT_READ`.
- In some configurations, ``<stddef.h>`` is not included from ``Python.h``.
It should be included manually when using ``offsetof()``.
The deprecated header continues to provide its original
contents under the original names.
Your old code can stay unchanged, unless the extra include and non-namespaced
macros bother you greatly.
There is discussion on the issue to rename `T_PYSSIZET` to `PY_T_SSIZE` or
similar. I chose not to do that -- users will probably copy/paste that with any
spelling, and not renaming it makes migration docs simpler.

This is part of the effort to consolidate global variables, to make them easier to manage (and make it easier to later move some of them to PyInterpreterState).

We actually don't move PyImport_Inittab. Instead, we make a copy that we keep on _PyRuntimeState and use only that after Py_Initialize(). We also prevent folks from modifying PyImport_Inittab (the best we can) after that point.

The global allocators were stored in 3 static global variables: _PyMem_Raw, _PyMem, and _PyObject. State for the "small block" allocator was stored in another 13. That makes a total of 16 global variables. We are moving all 16 to the _PyRuntimeState struct as part of the work for gh-81057. (If PEP 684 is accepted then we will follow up by moving them all to PyInterpreterState.)
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/81057
As we consolidate global variables, we find some objects that are almost suitable to add to _PyRuntimeState.global_objects, but have some small/sneaky bit of per-interpreter state (e.g. a weakref list). We're adding PyInterpreterState.static_objects so we can move such objects there. (We'll removed the _not_used field once we've added others.)
https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/81057
Up until now we had a single generated initializer macro for all the statically declared global objects in _PyRuntimeState, including several one-offs (e.g. the empty tuple). The one-offs don't need to be generated, but were because we had one big initializer. Having separate initializers for set of generated global objects allows us to generate only the ones we need to. This allows us to add initializers for one-off global objects without having to generate them.

* Adds EXIT_INTERPRETER instruction to exit PyEval_EvalDefault()
* Simplifies RETURN_VALUE, YIELD_VALUE and RETURN_GENERATOR instructions as they no longer need to check for entry frames.
The Py_CLEAR(), Py_SETREF() and Py_XSETREF() macros now only evaluate
their argument once. If an argument has side effects, these side
effects are no longer duplicated.
Add test_py_clear() and test_py_setref() unit tests to _testcapi.
Add _PyStaticObject_CheckRefcnt() function to make
_PyStaticObjects_CheckRefcnt() shorter. Use
_PyObject_ASSERT_FAILED_MSG() to log the object causing the fatal
error.
We do the following:
* move the generated _PyUnicode_InitStaticStrings() to its own file
* move the generated _PyStaticObjects_CheckRefcnt() to its own file
* include pycore_global_objects.h in extension modules instead of pycore_runtime_init.h
These changes help us avoid including things that aren't needed.

Add PyFrame_GetVar() and PyFrame_GetVarString() functions to get a
frame variable by its name.
Move PyFrameObject C API tests from test_capi to test_frame.
Previously, the optional restrictions on subinterpreters were: disallow fork, subprocess, and threads. By default, we were disallowing all three for "isolated" interpreters. We always allowed all three for the main interpreter and those created through the legacy `Py_NewInterpreter()` API.
Those settings were a bit conservative, so here we've adjusted the optional restrictions to: fork, exec, threads, and daemon threads. The default for "isolated" interpreters disables fork, exec, and daemon threads. Regular threads are allowed by default. We continue always allowing everything For the main interpreter and the legacy API.
In the code, we add `_PyInterpreterConfig.allow_exec` and `_PyInterpreterConfig.allow_daemon_threads`. We also add `Py_RTFLAGS_DAEMON_THREADS` and `Py_RTFLAGS_EXEC`.
Change FOR_ITER to have the same stack effect regardless of whether it branches or not.
Performance is unchanged as FOR_ITER (and specialized forms jump over the cleanup code).
