Undo rejected PEP-663 changes:
- restore `repr()` to its 3.10 status
- restore `str()` to its 3.10 status
New changes:
- `IntEnum` and `IntFlag` now leave `__str__` as the original `int.__str__` so that str() and format() return the same result
- zero-valued flags without a name have a slightly changed repr(), e.g. `repr(Color(0)) == '<Color: 0>'`
- update `dir()` for mixed-in types to return all the methods and attributes of the mixed-in type
- added `_numeric_repr_` to `Flag` to control display of unnamed values
- enums without doc strings have a more comprehensive doc string added
- `ReprEnum` added -- inheriting from this makes it so only `__repr__` is replaced, not `__str__` nor `__format__`; `IntEnum`, `IntFlag`, and `StrEnum` all inherit from `ReprEnum`
Py_EndInterpreter() now explicitly untracks all objects currently
tracked by the GC. Previously, if an object was used later by another
interpreter, calling PyObject_GC_UnTrack() on the object crashed if
the previous or the next object of the PyGC_Head structure became a
dangling pointer.
When Python is built without --enable-shared, the "python" program is
now linked to object files, rather than being linked to the Python
library (libpython.a), to make sure that all symbols are exported.
Previously, the linker omitted some symbols like the Py_FrozenMain()
function.
When Python is configured with --without-static-libpython, the Python
static library (libpython.a) is no longer built.
* Check --without-static-libpython earlier in configure.ac
* Add LINK_PYTHON_OBJS and LINK_PYTHON_DEPS variables to Makefile.
* test_capi now ensures that the "Py_FrozenMain" symbol is exported.
Previously, the main interpreter was allocated on the heap during runtime initialization. Here we instead embed it into _PyRuntimeState, which means it is statically allocated as part of the _PyRuntime global. The same goes for the initial thread state (of each interpreter, including the main one). Consequently there are fewer allocations during runtime/interpreter init, fewer possible failures, and better memory locality.
FYI, this also helps efforts to consolidate globals, which in turns helps work on subinterpreter isolation.

Add `string.Template.get_identifiers()` method that returns the identifiers within the template. By default, raises an error if it encounters an invalid identifier (like `substitute()`). The keyword-only argument `raise_on_invalid` can be set to `False` to ignore invalid identifiers (like `safe_substitute()`).

The empty bytes object (b'') and the 256 one-character bytes objects were allocated at runtime init. Now we statically allocate and initialize them.
