Issue #28915: Replace _PyObject_CallMethodId() with
_PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs() when the format string only use the format 'O'
for objects, like "(O)".
_PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs() avoids the code to parse a format string and
avoids the creation of a temporary tuple.
Replace
_PyObject_CallArg1(func, arg)
with
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, arg, NULL)
Using the _PyObject_CallArg1() macro increases the usage of the C stack, which
was unexpected and unwanted. PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() doesn't have this
issue.
Issue #28858: The change b9c9691c72c5 introduced a regression. It seems like
_PyObject_CallArg1() uses more stack memory than
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs().
* PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, NULL) => _PyObject_CallNoArg(func)
* PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs(func, arg, NULL) => _PyObject_CallArg1(func, arg)
PyObject_CallFunctionObjArgs() allocates 40 bytes on the C stack and requires
extra work to "parse" C arguments to build a C array of PyObject*.
_PyObject_CallNoArg() and _PyObject_CallArg1() are simpler and don't allocate
memory on the C stack.
This change is part of the fastcall project. The change on listsort() is
related to the issue #23507.
Issue #28799:
* Remove the PyEval_GetCallStats() function.
* Deprecate the untested and undocumented sys.callstats() function.
* Remove the CALL_PROFILE special build
Use the sys.setprofile() function, cProfile or profile module to profile
function calls.

Rename the config directory (LIBPL) from config-$(LDVERSION) to
config-$(LDVERSION)-$(PLATFORM_TRIPLET).
Install the platform specifc _sysconfigdata module into the platform
directory and rename it to include the ABIFLAGS.
