gh-87135: Hang non-main threads that attempt to acquire the GIL during finalization (GH-105805)
Instead of surprise crashes and memory corruption, we now hang threads that attempt to re-enter the Python interpreter after Python runtime finalization has started. These are typically daemon threads (our long standing mis-feature) but could also be threads spawned by extension modules that then try to call into Python. This marks the `PyThread_exit_thread` public C API as deprecated as there is no plausible safe way to accomplish that on any supported platform in the face of things like C++ code with finalizers anywhere on a thread's stack. Doing this was the least bad option.

* platform-dependent. This function should be avoided, and is no longer called
* by Python itself. It is retained only for compatibility with existing C
* extension code.
*
* With pthreads, calls `pthread_exit` causes some libcs (glibc?) to attempt to
* unwind the stack and call C++ destructors; if a `noexcept` function is
* reached, they may terminate the process. Others (macOS) do unwinding.
*
* On Windows, calls `_endthreadex` which kills the thread without calling C++
* destructors.
*
* In either case there is a risk of invalid references remaining to data on the
