- Use the helper for gdbm & dlerror messages

gh-127572: Fix `test_structmembers` initialization.
The 'C' format code expects an `int` as a destination (not a `char`).
This led to test failures on big-endian platforms like s390x. Use the
'c' format code, which expects a `char` as the destination (but requires
a Python byte objects instead of a str).
"Generally, mixed-mode arithmetic combining real and complex variables should
be performed directly, not by first coercing the real to complex, lest the sign
of zero be rendered uninformative; the same goes for combinations of pure
imaginary quantities with complex variables." (c) Kahan, W: Branch cuts for
complex elementary functions.
This patch implements mixed-mode arithmetic rules, combining real and
complex variables as specified by C standards since C99 (in particular,
there is no special version for the true division with real lhs
operand). Most C compilers implementing C99+ Annex G have only these
special rules (without support for imaginary type, which is going to be
deprecated in C2y).
Users want to know when the current context switches to a different
context object. Right now this happens when and only when a context
is entered or exited, so the enter and exit events are synonymous with
"switched". However, if the changes proposed for gh-99633 are
implemented, the current context will also switch for reasons other
than context enter or exit. Since users actually care about context
switches and not enter or exit, replace the enter and exit events with
a single switched event.
The former exit event was emitted just before exiting the context.
The new switched event is emitted after the context is exited to match
the semantics users expect of an event with a past-tense name. If
users need the ability to clean up before the switch takes effect,
another event type can be added in the future. It is not added here
because YAGNI.
I skipped 0 in the enum as a matter of practice. Skipping 0 makes it
easier to troubleshoot when code forgets to set zeroed memory, and it
aligns with best practices for other tools (e.g.,
https://protobuf.dev/programming-guides/dos-donts/#unspecified-enum).

Add PyConfig_Get(), PyConfig_GetInt(), PyConfig_Set() and
PyConfig_Names() functions to get and set the current runtime Python
configuration.
Add visibility and "sys spec" to config and preconfig specifications.
_PyConfig_AsDict() now converts PyConfig.xoptions as a dictionary.

Return -1 and set an exception on error; return 0 if the iterator is
exhausted, and return 1 if the next item was fetched successfully.
Prefer this API to PyIter_Next(), which requires the caller to use
PyErr_Occurred() to differentiate between iterator exhaustion and errors.

The `_PySeqLock_EndRead` function needs an acquire fence to ensure that
the load of the sequence happens after any loads within the read side
critical section. The missing fence can trigger bugs on macOS arm64.
Additionally, we need a release fence in `_PySeqLock_LockWrite` to
ensure that the sequence update is visible before any modifications to
the cache entry.
Fix warnings when using -Wimplicit-fallthrough compiler flag.
Annotate explicitly "fall through" switch cases with a new
_Py_FALLTHROUGH macro which uses __attribute__((fallthrough)) if
available. Replace "fall through" comments with _Py_FALLTHROUGH.
Add _Py__has_attribute() macro. No longer define __has_attribute()
macro if it's not defined. Move also _Py__has_builtin() at the top
of pyport.h.

This exposes `PyUnstable_Object_ClearWeakRefsNoCallbacks` as an unstable
C-API function to provide a thread-safe mechanism for clearing weakrefs
without executing callbacks.
Some C-API extensions need to clear weakrefs without calling callbacks,
such as after running finalizers like we do in subtype_dealloc.
Previously they could use `_PyWeakref_ClearRef` on each weakref, but
that's not thread-safe in the free-threaded build.

Add _PyType_LookupRef and use incref before setting attribute on type
Makes setting an attribute on a class and signaling type modified atomic
Avoid adding re-entrancy exposing the type cache in an inconsistent state by decrefing after type is updated
Now inspect.signature() supports references to the module globals in
parameter defaults on methods in extension modules. Previously it was
only supported in functions. The workaround was to specify the fully
qualified name, including the module name.
Add "Raw" variant of PyTime functions:
* PyTime_MonotonicRaw()
* PyTime_PerfCounterRaw()
* PyTime_TimeRaw()
Changes:
* Add documentation and tests. Tests release the GIL while calling
raw clock functions.
* py_get_system_clock() and py_get_monotonic_clock() now check that
the GIL is hold by the caller if raise_exc is non-zero.
* Reimplement "Unchecked" functions with raw clock functions.

The behavior of fileno() after fclose() is undefined, but it is the only
practical way to check whether the file was closed.
Only test this on the known platforms (Linux, Windows, macOS), where we
already tested that it works.
