Python/thread_foobar.h is the template code that is threading adaptation
for new platforms, also hasn't been used on actual platforms.
Python/thread_*.h give concrete examples of adaptation instead of the
template code.
is_valid_fd() now uses fstat() instead of dup() on macOS to return 0
on a pipe when the other side of the pipe is closed. fstat() fails
with EBADF in that case, whereas dup() succeed.
* bpo-6532: Make the thread id an unsigned integer.
From C API side the type of results of PyThread_start_new_thread() and
PyThread_get_thread_ident(), the id parameter of
PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc(), and the thread_id field of PyThreadState
changed from "long" to "unsigned long".
* Restore a check in thread_get_ident().
When LOAD_METHOD is used for calling C mehtod, PyMethodDescrObject
was passed to profilefunc from 5566bbb.
But lsprof traces only PyCFunctionObject. Additionally, there can be
some third party extension which assumes passed arg is
PyCFunctionObject without calling PyCFunction_Check().
So make PyCFunctionObject from PyMethodDescrObject when
tstate->c_profilefunc is set.
sys.version and the platform module python_build(),
python_branch(), and python_revision() functions now use
git information rather than hg when building from a repo.
