Use less code by moving many of the steps from the initial

Beautify the code but keep the overall logic unchanged.

Use also os.get_inheritable() instead of fcntl() to check the inheritable flag
(FD_CLOEXEC).

Fix compilation warnings on Windows (Visual C++) like: "_sre.c(3121): warning

_validate_outer() ensures that groups >= 0, so _validate_inner() can cast
groups to size_t.

"Issue #18408: PyObject_Str(), PyObject_Repr() and type_call() now fail with an
assertion error if they are called with an exception set (PyErr_Occurred()).

As PyEval_EvalFrameEx(), they may clear the current exception and so the caller
looses its exception."

 * Catch PyFile_WriteString() and PyFile_WriteObject() errors
 * Clear the current exception on _PyObject_GetAttrId() failure
 * Use PyUnicode_CompareWithASCIIString() and PyFile_WriteObject() instead of
   _PyUnicode_AsString() and strcmp() to avoid Unicode encoding error. stderr
   has a more tolerant error handler than utf-8/strict.

So it can be called even if an exception was raised
