It looks like commit 43cf44ddcc
(gh-31501) accidentally moved the paragraph to the `tp_finalize`
section when the intent was to move it to the `tp_dealloc` section
(according to the commit message).

- move the Py_Main documentation from the very high level API section
to the initialization and finalization section
- make it clear that it encapsulates a full Py_Initialize/Finalize
cycle of its own
- point out that exactly which settings will be read and applied
correctly when Py_Main is called after a separate runtime
initialization call is version dependent
- be explicit that Py_IsInitialized can be called prior to
initialization
- actually test that Py_IsInitialized can be called prior to
initialization
- flush stdout in the embedding tests that run code so it appears
in the expected order when running with "-vv"
- make "-vv" on the subinterpreter embedding tests less spammy

The term "free variable" has unfortunately become genuinely
ambiguous over the years (presumably due to the names of
some relevant code object instance attributes).
While we can't eliminate that ambiguity at this late date, we can
at least alert people to the potential ambiguity by describing
both the formal meaning of the term and the common
alternative use as a direct synonym for "closure variable".

* Switch PyUnicode_InternInPlace to _PyUnicode_InternMortal, clarify docs
* Document immortality in some functions that take `const char *`
This is PyUnicode_InternFromString;
PyDict_SetItemString, PyObject_SetAttrString;
PyObject_DelAttrString; PyUnicode_InternFromString;
and the PyModule_Add convenience functions.
Always point out a non-immortalizing alternative.
* Don't immortalize user-provided attr names in _ctypes

docs: Fix "Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_WEAKREF is set in tp_flags" (GH-112237)
(cherry picked from commit 4232976b02)
Co-authored-by: da-woods <dw-git@d-woods.co.uk>
PyDict_Next no longer locks the dictionary in the free-threaded build. Locking
around individual PyDict_Next calls is not sufficient because the function
returns borrowed references and because it allows concurrent modifications
during the iteraiton loop.
The internal locking also interferes with correct external synchronization
because it may suspend outer critical sections created by the caller.
(cherry picked from commit 375b723d58)

This makes the following macros public as part of the non-limited C-API for
locking a single object or two objects at once.
* `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION(op)` / `Py_END_CRITICAL_SECTION()`
* `Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION2(a, b)` / `Py_END_CRITICAL_SECTION2()`
The supporting functions and structs used by the macros are also exposed for
cases where C macros are not available.
(cherry picked from commit 8f17d69b7b)
This exposes `PyUnstable_Object_ClearWeakRefsNoCallbacks` as an unstable
C-API function to provide a thread-safe mechanism for clearing weakrefs
without executing callbacks.
Some C-API extensions need to clear weakrefs without calling callbacks,
such as after running finalizers like we do in subtype_dealloc.
Previously they could use `_PyWeakref_ClearRef` on each weakref, but
that's not thread-safe in the free-threaded build.

PEP 667's description of the planned changes to PyEval_GetLocals
was internally inconsistent when accepted, so the docs added for
gh-74929 didn't match either the current behaviour or the intended
behaviour once gh-118934 is fixed.
This PR updates the documentation and 3.13 What's New to match the
intended behaviour (once gh-118934 is fixed).
It also tidies up lingering references to `f_locals` always being a
dictionary (this hasn't been true since at least when custom
namespace support for class statement execution was added)
