A PyThreadState can be in one of many states in its lifecycle, represented by some status value. Those statuses haven't been particularly clear, so we're addressing that here. Specifically:
* made the distinct lifecycle statuses clear on PyThreadState
* identified expectations of how various lifecycle-related functions relate to status
* noted the various places where those expectations don't match the actual behavior
At some point we'll need to address the mismatches.
(This change also includes some cleanup.)

`warnings.warn()` gains the ability to skip stack frames based on code
filename prefix rather than only a numeric `stacklevel=` via a new
`skip_file_prefixes=` keyword argument.
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.

This is a follow-up to gh-101161. The objective is to make it easier to read Python/pystate.c by grouping the functions there in a consistent way. This exclusively involves moving code around and adding various kinds of comments.

The objective of this change is to help make the GILState-related code easier to understand. This mostly involves moving code around and some semantically equivalent refactors. However, there are a also a small number of slight changes in structure and behavior:
* tstate_current is moved out of _PyRuntimeState.gilstate
* autoTSSkey is moved out of _PyRuntimeState.gilstate
* autoTSSkey is initialized earlier
* autoTSSkey is re-initialized (after fork) earlier

You can now write things like this:
```
inst(BUILD_STRING, (pieces[oparg] -- str)) { ... }
inst(LIST_APPEND, (list, unused[oparg-1], v -- list, unused[oparg-1])) { ... }
```
Note that array output effects are only partially supported (they must be named `unused` or correspond to an input effect).
For these the instr_format field uses IX instead of IB.
Register instructions use IX, IB, IBBX, IBBB, etc.
Also: Include the closing '}' in Block.tokens, for completeness
(These aren't used yet, but may be coming soon,
and it's easier to keep this tool the same between branches.)
Added a sanity check for all this to compile.c.

When executing the BUILD_LIST opcode, steal the references from the stack,
in a manner similar to the BUILD_TUPLE opcode. Implement this by offloading
the logic to a new private API, _PyList_FromArraySteal(), that works similarly
to _PyTuple_FromArraySteal().
This way, instead of performing multiple stack pointer adjustments while the
list is being initialized, the stack is adjusted only once and a fast memory
copy operation is performed in one fell swoop.
