* Maintain a list of BufferedWriter objects. Flush them on exit.
In Python 3, the buffer and the underlying file object are separate
and so the order in which objects are finalized matters. This is
unlike Python 2 where the file and buffer were a single object and
finalization was done for both at the same time. In Python 3, if
the file is finalized and closed before the buffer then the data in
the buffer is lost.
This change adds a doubly linked list of open file buffers. An atexit
hook ensures they are flushed before proceeding with interpreter
shutdown. This is addition does not remove the need to properly close
files as there are other reasons why buffered data could get lost during
finalization.
Initial patch by Armin Rigo.
* Use weakref.WeakSet instead of WeakKeyDictionary.
* Simplify buffered double-linked list types.
* In _flush_all_writers(), suppress errors from flush().
* Remove NEWS entry, use blurb.
* Take more care when flushing file buffers from atexit.
The previous implementation was not careful enough to avoid
causing issues in multi-threaded cases. Check for buf->ok
and buf->finalizing before actually doing the flush. Also,
increase the refcnt to ensure the object does not disappear.
* group the (stateful) runtime globals into various topical structs
* consolidate the topical structs under a single top-level _PyRuntimeState struct
* add a check-c-globals.py script that helps identify runtime globals
Other globals are excluded (see globals.txt and check-c-globals.py).

* 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().
Issue #28915: Replace _PyObject_CallMethodId() with
_PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs() when the format string was only made of "O"
formats, PyObject* arguments.
_PyObject_CallMethodIdObjArgs() avoids the creation of a temporary tuple and
doesn't have to parse a format string.
This matches the usage of ZipFile and BufferedWriter. This still requires
return values to be bytes() objects.
Also document and test that the write() methods should only access their
argument before they return.
