This includes fixes to various _Py_atomic_* macros.

Add TEST_EXTENSIONS constant to setup.py to allow to not build test
extensions like _testcapi.

Changes:

* Add add_ldflags_cppflags() subfunction
* Rename add_compiler_directories() to configure_compiler().
* Remove unused COMPILED_WITH_PYDEBUG constant.
* Use self.add() rather than accessing directly self.extensions.
* Remove module_enabled() function: check differently if curses
  extension is built or not.

Ensure custom formatwarning function can receive line as positional argument.

* Add _PyArgv_Decode() function
* Move _Py_ClearFileSystemEncoding() and _Py_SetFileSystemEncoding()
  to preconfig.c.

* Move set_compiler_flags() calls and concurrent.future hack from
  module top-level to main()
* Remove unused variables 'macros' and 'libraries' from
  detect_multiprocessing().
* Move SUMMARY and CLASSIFIERS constants at the top, move
  set_compiler_flags() function below these constants.
* Add some empty new lines to respect PEP 8.

* Split PyBuildExt.detect_modules() huge function into subfunctions.
* Move curses, hashlib and some other code to reorganize the code.
* detect_tkinter() now returns False if the extension is missing.
* Add PyBuildExt.config_h_vars attribute

* Add _PyCoreConfig_ReadFromArgv() function which parses command line
  options: move code from main.c to coreconfig.c.
* Add _PyCoreConfig_Write() to write the new configuration: coerce
  the LC_CTYPE locale, set Py_xxx global configuration variables,
  etc.
* _PyCoreConfig_ReadFromArgv() now only changes the LC_CTYPE locale
  temporarily. _PyCoreConfig_Write() becomes responsible to set the
  LC_CTYPE locale.
* Add _Py_SetArgcArgv() and _Py_ClearArgcArgv() functions
* Rename many "pymain_xxx()" functions
* Add "const" to some function parameters
* Reorganize main.c to declare functions in the order in which they
  are called.

* Add PyBuildExt.srcdir atribute in setup.py: the source directory is
  now always absolute.
* Add PyBuildExt.inc_dirs and PyBuildExt.lib_dirs attributes:
  replace 'inc_dirs' and 'lib_dirs' local variables of
  detect_modules().
* Replace "from distutils.errors import *"
  with "from distutils.errors import CCompilerError, DistutilsError"
  to be able to use static analyzers like pyflakes
* Reorder imports.

* Add PyBuildExt.add() which adds the extension directly to
  self.extensions, rather than using a temporary 'exts' local
  variable in detect_modules() and then add 'exts' to self.extensions
* Convert 'missing' local variable from detect_modules()
  into PyBuildExt.missing attribute
* _detect_openssl(), _decimal_ext() and _detect_nis() now call
  directly self.add(), rather than returning an extension
  (or None if not found).
* Rename _decimal_ext() to _detect_decimal() for consistency with
  other methods.

Fix setup.py on macOS: only add /usr/include/ffi to include
directories of _ctypes, not for all extensions.

* Move fields from _PyMain to _PyCoreConfig:

  * skip_first_line
  * run_command
  * run_module
  * run_filename

* Replace _PyMain.stdin_is_interactive with a new
  stdin_is_interactive(config) function
* Rename _PyMain to _PyArgv. Add "const _PyArgv *args" field
  to _PyCmdline.

Add a new _Py_INIT_EXIT() macro to be able to exit Python with an
exitcode using _PyInitError API. Rewrite function calls by
pymain_main() to use _PyInitError.

Changes:

* Remove _PyMain.err and _PyMain.status field
* Add _Py_INIT_EXIT() macro and _PyInitError.exitcode field.
* Rename _Py_FatalInitError() to _Py_ExitInitError().

Remove colorizer.ColorDelegator.close_when_done and the corresponding argument of .close().  In IDLE, both have always been None or False since 2007.

The whole coreconfig.h header is now excluded from Py_LIMITED_API.
Move functions definitions into a new internal pycore_coreconfig.h
header.

* Move Include/coreconfig.h to Include/cpython/coreconfig.h
* coreconfig.h header is now excluded from Py_LIMITED_API
* Move functions to pycore_coreconfig.h

Use locale.getpreferredencoding() rather than locale.getlocale() to
get the locale encoding. With some locales, locale.getlocale()
returns the wrong encoding.

For example, on Fedora 29, locale.getlocale() returns ISO-8859-1
encoding for the "en_IN" locale, whereas
locale.getpreferredencoding() reports the correct encoding: UTF-8.

* Rename globals to upper case to better distinguish if a variable is
  global or local:

  * Rename cross_compiling to CROSS_COMPILING
  * Rename host_platform to HOST_PLATFORM
  * Rename disabled_module_list to DISABLED_MODULE_LIST

* Add MS_WINDOWS, CYGWIN and MACOS constants.
* Use booleans: replace "return 0" with "return False"
  and replace "return 1" with "return True"

Did you know an API documented as printing the pending traceback would sometimes exit the process?

You do now.

Use longer timeout for accept() in the server and block on accept in the client.
The client now only sets the timeout once the socket is connected.

bpo-35652: shutil.copytree(copy_function=...) erroneously pass DirEntry instead of path str (GH-11997)

The standard math library (libm) may follow IEEE-754 recommendation to
include an implementation of sinPi(), i.e. sinPi(x):=sin(pi*x).
And this triggers a name clash, found by FreeBSD developer
Steve Kargl, who worken on putting sinpi into libm used on FreeBSD
(it has to be named "sinpi", not "sinPi", cf. e.g.
https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/experimental/fpext4).

Per POSIX, `nice(3)` requires `unistd.h` and `exit(3)` requires `stdlib.h`.

Fixing the test will prevent false positives with pedantic compilers like clang.
