Make a non-Py_DEBUG, asserts-enabled build of CPython possible. This means
making sure helper functions are defined when NDEBUG is not defined, not
just when Py_DEBUG is defined.
Also fix a division-by-zero in obmalloc.c that went unnoticed because in
Py_DEBUG mode, elsize is never zero.
(cherry picked from commit a00c3fd12d and 06bb4873d6)
PyObject_Calloc(), _PyObject_GC_Calloc(). bytes(int) and bytearray(int) are now
using ``calloc()`` instead of ``malloc()`` for large objects which is faster
and use less memory (until the bytearray buffer is filled with data).
_PyMem_RawMalloc/Realloc/Free, instead of _PyMem_Malloc/Realloc/Free. So it
becomes possible to use the fast pymalloc allocator for the PYMEM_DOMAIN_MEM
domain (PyMem_Malloc/Realloc/Free functions).
This patch appropriately marks known false alarms in the
small object allocator when address sanity checking is
enabled (patch contributed by Dhiru Kholia).
Issue #18942: sys._debugmallocstats() output was damaged on Windows.
_PyDebugAllocatorStats() called PyOS_snprintf() with a %zd format
code, but MS doesn't support that code. Interpolated
PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T in place of the "z".

Don't mark old extra memory dead before calling realloc(). realloc() can fail
and realloc() must not touch the original buffer on failure.
So mark old extra memory dead only on success if the new buffer did not move
(has the same address).
Add new enum:
* PyMemAllocatorDomain
Add new structures:
* PyMemAllocator
* PyObjectArenaAllocator
Add new functions:
* PyMem_RawMalloc(), PyMem_RawRealloc(), PyMem_RawFree()
* PyMem_GetAllocator(), PyMem_SetAllocator()
* PyObject_GetArenaAllocator(), PyObject_SetArenaAllocator()
* PyMem_SetupDebugHooks()
Changes:
* PyMem_Malloc()/PyObject_Realloc() now always call malloc()/realloc(), instead
of calling PyObject_Malloc()/PyObject_Realloc() in debug mode.
* PyObject_Malloc()/PyObject_Realloc() now falls back to
PyMem_Malloc()/PyMem_Realloc() for allocations larger than 512 bytes.
* Redesign debug checks on memory block allocators as hooks, instead of using C
macros
* Add a new PyMemAllocators structure
* New functions:
- PyMem_RawMalloc(), PyMem_RawRealloc(), PyMem_RawFree(): GIL-free memory
allocator functions
- PyMem_GetRawAllocators(), PyMem_SetRawAllocators()
- PyMem_GetAllocators(), PyMem_SetAllocators()
- PyMem_SetupDebugHooks()
- _PyObject_GetArenaAllocators(), _PyObject_SetArenaAllocators()
* Add unit test for PyMem_Malloc(0) and PyObject_Malloc(0)
* Add unit test for new get/set allocators functions
* PyObject_Malloc() now falls back on PyMem_Malloc() instead of malloc() if
size is bigger than SMALL_REQUEST_THRESHOLD, and PyObject_Realloc() falls
back on PyMem_Realloc() instead of realloc()
* PyMem_Malloc() and PyMem_Realloc() now always call malloc() and realloc(),
instead of calling PyObject_Malloc() and PyObject_Realloc() in debug mode
