This brings the code under test.support.interpreters, and the corresponding extension modules, in line with recent updates to PEP 734.
(Note: PEP 734 has not been accepted at this time. However, we are using an internal copy of the implementation in the test suite to exercise the existing subinterpreters feature.)
When an exception is uncaught in Interpreter.exec_sync(), it helps to show that exception's error display if uncaught in the calling interpreter. We do so here by generating a TracebackException in the subinterpreter and passing it between interpreters using pickle.
