The instance destructor for a type is responsible for preparing
an instance for deallocation by decrementing the reference counts
of its referents.
If an instance belongs to a heap type, the type object of an instance
has its reference count decremented while for static types, which
are permanently allocated, the type object is unaffected by the
instance destructor.
Previously, the default instance destructor searched the class
hierarchy for an inherited instance destructor and, if present,
would invoke it.
Then, if the instance type is a heap type, it would decrement the
reference count of that heap type. However, this could result in the
premature destruction of a type because the inherited instance
destructor should have already decremented the reference count
of the type object.
This change avoids the premature destruction of the type object
by suppressing the decrement of its reference count when an
inherited, non-default instance destructor has been invoked.
Finally, an assertion on the Py_SIZE of a type was deleted. Heap
types have a non zero size, making this into an incorrect assertion.

Add functions with various calling conventions to `_testcapi`, expose them as module-level functions, bound methods, class methods, and static methods, and test calling them and introspecting them through GDB.

Summary:
Eliminate uses of `_Py_IDENTIFIER` from `_posixsubprocess`, replacing them with interned strings.
Also tries to find an existing version of the module, which will allow subinterpreters.

* PEP-384 _struct
* More PEP-384 fixes for _struct
Summary: Add a couple of more fixes for `_struct` that were previously missed such as removing `tp_*` accessors and using `PyBytesWriter` instead of calling `PyBytes_FromStringAndSize` with `NULL`. Also added a test to confirm that `iter_unpack` type is still uninstantiable.

Accumulate certificates in a set instead of doing a costly list contain
operation. A Windows cert store can easily contain over hundred
certificates. The old code would result in way over 5,000 comparison
operations

In debug mode, visit_decref() now calls _PyObject_IsFreed() to ensure
that the object is not freed. If it's freed, the program fails with
an assertion error and Python dumps informations about the freed
object.
ssl_collect_certificates function in _ssl.c has a memory leak.
Calling CertOpenStore() and CertAddStoreToCollection(), a store's refcnt gets incremented by 2.
But CertCloseStore() is called only once and the refcnt leaves 1.
If FormatMessageW() is passed the FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM flag without FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS, it will fail if there are insert sequences in the message definition.
