No longer use deprecated aliases to functions:
* Replace PyObject_MALLOC() with PyObject_Malloc()
* Replace PyObject_REALLOC() with PyObject_Realloc()
* Replace PyObject_FREE() with PyObject_Free()
* Replace PyObject_Del() with PyObject_Free()
* Replace PyObject_DEL() with PyObject_Free()
No longer use deprecated aliases to functions:
* Replace PyMem_MALLOC() with PyMem_Malloc()
* Replace PyMem_REALLOC() with PyMem_Realloc()
* Replace PyMem_FREE() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_Del() with PyMem_Free()
* Replace PyMem_DEL() with PyMem_Free()
Modify also the PyMem_DEL() macro to use directly PyMem_Free().
The PyObject_INIT() and PyObject_INIT_VAR() macros become aliases to,
respectively, PyObject_Init() and PyObject_InitVar() functions.
Rename _PyObject_INIT() and _PyObject_INIT_VAR() static inline
functions to, respectively, _PyObject_Init() and _PyObject_InitVar(),
and move them to pycore_object.h. Remove their return value:
their return type becomes void.
The _datetime module is now built with the Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macro
defined.
Remove an outdated comment on _Py_tracemalloc_config.
Add the functions PyObject_GC_IsTracked and PyObject_GC_IsFinalized to the public API to allow to query if Python objects are being currently tracked or have been already finalized by the garbage collector respectively.
The PyObject_NEW() macro becomes an alias to the PyObject_New()
macro, and the PyObject_NEW_VAR() macro becomes an alias to the
PyObject_NewVar() macro, to hide implementation details. They no
longer access directly the PyTypeObject.tp_basicsize member.
Exclude _PyObject_SIZE() and _PyObject_VAR_SIZE() macros from
the limited C API.
Replace PyObject_NEW() with PyObject_New() and replace
PyObject_NEW_VAR() with PyObject_NewVar().
In the limited C API, PyObject_INIT() and PyObject_INIT_VAR() are now
defined as aliases to PyObject_Init() and PyObject_InitVar() to make
their implementation opaque. It avoids to leak implementation details
in the limited C API.
Exclude the following functions from the limited C API, move them
from object.h to cpython/object.h:
* _Py_NewReference()
* _Py_ForgetReference()
* _PyTraceMalloc_NewReference()
* _Py_GetRefTotal()
Include/*.h should be the "portable Python API", whereas
Include/cpython/*.h should be the "CPython API": CPython
implementation details.
Changes:
* Create Include/cpython/ subdirectory
* "make install" now creates $prefix/include/cpython and copy
Include/cpython/* to $prefix/include/cpython
* Create Include/cpython/objimpl.h: move objimpl.h code
surrounded by "#ifndef Py_LIMITED_API" to cpython/objimpl.h.
* objimpl.h now includes cpython/objimpl.h
* Windows installer (MSI) now also install Include/ subdirectories:
Include/cpython/ and Include/internal/.
Partially revert commit 1a6be91e6f,
move back PyGC API from the internal API to the C API:
* _PyGCHead_NEXT(g), _PyGCHead_SET_NEXT(g, p)
* _PyGCHead_PREV(g), _PyGCHead_SET_PREV(g, p)
* _PyGCHead_FINALIZED(g), _PyGCHead_SET_FINALIZED(g)
* _PyGC_FINALIZED(o), _PyGC_SET_FINALIZED(o)
* _PyGC_PREV_MASK_FINALIZED
* _PyGC_PREV_MASK_COLLECTING
* _PyGC_PREV_SHIFT
* _PyGC_PREV_MASK
_PyObject_GC_TRACK(o) and _PyObject_GC_UNTRACK(o) remain in the
internal API.
* Convert PyObject_INIT() and PyObject_INIT_VAR() macros to static
inline functions.
* Fix usage of these functions: cast to PyObject* or PyVarObject*.
During development of the limited API support for PySide,
we saw an error in a macro that accessed a type field.
This patch fixes the 7 errors in the Python headers.
Macros which were not written as capitals were implemented
as function.
To do the necessary analysis again, a script was included that
parses all headers and looks for "->tp_" in serctions which can
be reached with active limited API.
It is easily possible to call this script as a test.

* Py_Main() now starts by reading Py_xxx configuration variables to
only work on its own private structure, and then later writes back
the configuration into these variables.
* Replace Py_GETENV() with pymain_get_env_var() which ignores empty
variables.
* Add _PyCoreConfig.dump_refs
* Add _PyCoreConfig.malloc_stats
* _PyObject_DebugMallocStats() is now responsible to check if debug
hooks are installed. The function returns 1 if stats were written,
or 0 if the hooks are disabled. Mark _PyMem_PymallocEnabled() as
static.
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).
