suppression in the default build.

Revert "GH-91079: Implement C stack limits using addresses, not counters. (GH-130007)" for now
Unfortunatlely, the change broke some buildbots.
This reverts commit 2498c22fa0.
CPython current temporarily changes `PYMEM_DOMAIN_RAW` to the default
allocator during initialization and shutdown. The motivation is to
ensure that core runtime structures are allocated and freed using the
same allocator. However, modifying the current allocator changes global
state and is not thread-safe even with the GIL. Other threads may be
allocating or freeing objects use PYMEM_DOMAIN_RAW; they are not
required to hold the GIL to call PyMem_RawMalloc/PyMem_RawFree.
This adds new internal-only functions like `_PyMem_DefaultRawMalloc`
that aren't affected by calls to `PyMem_SetAllocator()`, so they're
appropriate for Python runtime initialization and finalization. Use
these calls in places where we previously swapped to the default raw
allocator.

Make tuple iteration more thread-safe, and actually test concurrent iteration of tuple, range and list. (This is prep work for enabling specialization of FOR_ITER in free-threaded builds.) The basic premise is:
Iterating over a shared iterable (list, tuple or range) should be safe, not involve data races, and behave like iteration normally does.
Using a shared iterator should not crash or involve data races, and should only produce items regular iteration would produce. It is not guaranteed to produce all items, or produce each item only once. (This is not the case for range iteration even after this PR.)
Providing stronger guarantees is possible for some of these iterators, but it's not always straight-forward and can significantly hamper the common case. Since iterators in general aren't shared between threads, and it's simply impossible to concurrently use many iterators (like generators), better to make sharing iterators without explicit synchronization clearly wrong.
Specific issues fixed in order to make the tests pass:
- List iteration could occasionally fail an assertion when a shared list was shrunk and an item past the new end was retrieved concurrently. There's still some unsafety when deleting/inserting multiple items through for example slice assignment, which uses memmove/memcpy.
- Tuple iteration could occasionally crash when the iterator's reference to the tuple was cleared on exhaustion. Like with list iteration, in free-threaded builds we can't safely and efficiently clear the iterator's reference to the iterable (doing it safely would mean extra, slow refcount operations), so just keep the iterable reference around.
Use an atomic operation when setting
`_PyRuntime.signals.unhandled_keyboard_interrupt`. We now only clear the
variable at the start of `_PyRun_Main`, which is the same function where
we check it.
This avoids race conditions where previously another thread might call
`run_eval_code_obj()` and erroneously clear the unhandled keyboard
interrupt.
Fix a few thread-safety bugs to enable test_opcache when run with TSAN:
* Use relaxed atomics when clearing `ht->_spec_cache.getitem`
(gh-115999)
* Add temporary suppression for type slot modifications (gh-127266)
* Use atomic load when reading `*dictptr`
The ``fintl`` module is never installed or tested, meaning that the
fallback identity function is unconditionally used for ``_()``.
This means we can simplify, converting the docstring to a real
docstring, and converting some other strings to f-strings.
We also convert the module to UTF-8, sort imports,
and remove the history comment, which was last updated in 2002.
Consult the git history for a more accurate summary of changes.
This exposes `_Py_TryIncref` as `PyUnstable_TryIncref()` and the helper
function `_PyObject_SetMaybeWeakref` as `PyUnstable_EnableTryIncRef`.
These are helpers for dealing with unowned references in a safe way,
particularly in the free threading build.
