To use this, ensure that clang support was selected in Visual Studio Installer, then set the PlatformToolset environment variable to "ClangCL" and build as normal from the command line.
It remains unsupported, but at least is possible now for experimentation.
Fixes a reference counting issue with `ctypes.Structure` when a `from_param()` method call is used and the structure size is larger than a C pointer `sizeof(void*)`.
This problem existed for a very long time, but became more apparent in 3.8+ by change likely due to garbage collection cleanup timing changes.
Python 2.x and up to 3.4 did not contain the "-32" in their registry name, so the 32 and 64-bit installs were treated equal. Since 3.5/PEP 514 this is no longer true, but we still want to detect the EOL versions correctly in case people are still using them.
Additionally, the code to replace a node with one with a lower sort key was buggy (wrong node chosen, replace never happened since parent was always NULL, replaced node never freed, etc)
We don't need direct C APIs to get at a bigint representation of PyLong but we
do want the few people who need to understand how.

When getaddrinfo returns an error, the output pointer is in an unknown state
Don't call freeaddrinfo on it. See the issue for discussion and details with
links to reasoning. _Most_ libc getaddrinfo implementations never modify the
output pointer unless they are returning success.

We've factored out a struct from the two PyThreadState fields. This accomplishes two things:
* make it clear that the trashcan-related code doesn't need any other parts of PyThreadState
* allows us to use the trashcan mechanism even when there isn't a "current" thread state
We still expect the caller to hold the GIL.

When testing element truth values, emit a DeprecationWarning in all implementations.
This had emitted a FutureWarning in the rarely used python-only implementation since ~2.7 and has always been documented as a behavior not to rely on.
Matching an element in a tree search but having it test False can be unexpected. Raising the warning enables making the choice to finally raise an exception for this ambiguous behavior in the future.
This PR adds support for float-style formatting for `Fraction` objects: it supports the `"e"`, `"E"`, `"f"`, `"F"`, `"g"`, `"G"` and `"%"` presentation types, and all the various bells and whistles of the formatting mini-language for those presentation types. The behaviour almost exactly matches that of `float`, but the implementation works with the exact `Fraction` value and does not do an intermediate conversion to `float`, and so avoids loss of precision or issues with numbers that are outside the dynamic range of the `float` type.
Note that the `"n"` presentation type is _not_ supported. That support could be added later if people have a need for it.
There's one corner-case where the behaviour differs from that of float: for the `float` type, if explicit alignment is specified with a fill character of `'0'` and alignment type `'='`, then thousands separators (if specified) are inserted into the padding string:
```python
>>> format(3.14, '0=11,.2f')
'0,000,003.14'
```
The exact same effect can be achieved by using the `'0'` flag:
```python
>>> format(3.14, '011,.2f')
'0,000,003.14'
```
For `Fraction`, only the `'0'` flag has the above behaviour with respect to thousands separators: there's no special-casing of the particular `'0='` fill-character/alignment combination. Instead, we treat the fill character `'0'` just like any other:
```python
>>> format(Fraction('3.14'), '0=11,.2f')
'00000003.14'
>>> format(Fraction('3.14'), '011,.2f')
'0,000,003.14'
```
The `Fraction` formatter is also stricter about combining these two things: it's not permitted to use both the `'0'` flag _and_ explicit alignment, on the basis that we should refuse the temptation to guess in the face of ambiguity. `float` is less picky:
```python
>>> format(3.14, '0<011,.2f')
'3.140000000'
>>> format(Fraction('3.14'), '0<011,.2f')
