We actually don't move PyImport_Inittab. Instead, we make a copy that we keep on _PyRuntimeState and use only that after Py_Initialize(). We also prevent folks from modifying PyImport_Inittab (the best we can) after that point.

The global allocators were stored in 3 static global variables: _PyMem_Raw, _PyMem, and _PyObject. State for the "small block" allocator was stored in another 13. That makes a total of 16 global variables. We are moving all 16 to the _PyRuntimeState struct as part of the work for gh-81057. (If PEP 684 is accepted then we will follow up by moving them all to PyInterpreterState.)

As we consolidate global variables, we find some objects that are almost suitable to add to _PyRuntimeState.global_objects, but have some small/sneaky bit of per-interpreter state (e.g. a weakref list). We're adding PyInterpreterState.static_objects so we can move such objects there. (We'll removed the _not_used field once we've added others.)

* Adds EXIT_INTERPRETER instruction to exit PyEval_EvalDefault()
* Simplifies RETURN_VALUE, YIELD_VALUE and RETURN_GENERATOR instructions as they no longer need to check for entry frames.
Replace Py_INCREF() and Py_XINCREF() with Py_NewRef() and
Py_XNewRef() in C files of the Python/ directory.
Update Parser/asdl_c.py to regenerate Python/Python-ast.c.
We do the following:
* move the generated _PyUnicode_InitStaticStrings() to its own file
* move the generated _PyStaticObjects_CheckRefcnt() to its own file
* include pycore_global_objects.h in extension modules instead of pycore_runtime_init.h
These changes help us avoid including things that aren't needed.

Remove the distutils package. It was deprecated in Python 3.10 by PEP
632 "Deprecate distutils module". For projects still using distutils
and cannot be updated to something else, the setuptools project can
be installed: it still provides distutils.
* Remove Lib/distutils/ directory
* Remove test_distutils
* Remove references to distutils
* Skip test_check_c_globals and test_peg_generator since they use
distutils
Fix use-after-free in Py_SetPythonHome(NULL), Py_SetProgramName(NULL)
and _Py_SetProgramFullPath(NULL) function calls.
Issue reported by Benedikt Reinartz.
The switch cases (really TARGET(opcode) macros) have been moved from ceval.c to generated_cases.c.h. That file is generated from instruction definitions in bytecodes.c (which impersonates a C file so the C code it contains can be edited without custom support in e.g. VS Code).
The code generator lives in Tools/cases_generator (it has a README.md explaining how it works). The DSL used to describe the instructions is a work in progress, described in https://github.com/faster-cpython/ideas/blob/main/3.12/interpreter_definition.md.
This is surely a work-in-progress. An easy next step could be auto-generating super-instructions.
**IMPORTANT: Merge Conflicts**
If you get a merge conflict for instruction implementations in ceval.c, your best bet is to port your changes to bytecodes.c. That file looks almost the same as the original cases, except instead of `TARGET(NAME)` it uses `inst(NAME)`, and the trailing `DISPATCH()` call is omitted (the code generator adds it automatically).
For wasmtime 2.0, the stack depth cost is 6% higher. This causes the default max `marshal` recursion depth to blow the stack.
As the default marshal depth is 2000 and Windows is set to 1000, split the difference and choose 1500 for WASI to be safe.
This reduces confusion between jumps at the bytecode level
(e.g. JUMPTO(), JUMPBY(), and various JUMP_*() opcodes)
and jumps in the C code (which are 'goto' statements).
Previously, the optional restrictions on subinterpreters were: disallow fork, subprocess, and threads. By default, we were disallowing all three for "isolated" interpreters. We always allowed all three for the main interpreter and those created through the legacy `Py_NewInterpreter()` API.
Those settings were a bit conservative, so here we've adjusted the optional restrictions to: fork, exec, threads, and daemon threads. The default for "isolated" interpreters disables fork, exec, and daemon threads. Regular threads are allowed by default. We continue always allowing everything For the main interpreter and the legacy API.
In the code, we add `_PyInterpreterConfig.allow_exec` and `_PyInterpreterConfig.allow_daemon_threads`. We also add `Py_RTFLAGS_DAEMON_THREADS` and `Py_RTFLAGS_EXEC`.
* As most of `test_embed` now uses `Py_InitializeFromConfig`, add
a specific test case to cover `Py_Initialize` (and `Py_InitializeEx`)
* Rename `_testembed` init helper to clarify the API used
* Add a `PyConfig_Clear` call in `Py_InitializeEx` to make
the code more obviously correct (it already didn't leak as
none of the dynamically allocated config fields were being
populated, but it's clearer if the wrappers follow the
documented API usage guidelines)
