For the free-threaded build, check the process resident set size (RSS)
increase before triggering a full automatic garbage collection. If the RSS
has not increased 10% since the last collection then it is deferred.
* Track the current executor, not the previous one, on the thread-state.
* Batch executors for deallocation to avoid having to constantly incref executors; this is an ad-hoc form of deferred reference counting.
In the free-threaded build, avoid data races caused by updating type slots
or type flags after the type was initially created. For those (typically
rare) cases, use the stop-the-world mechanism. Remove the use of atomics
when reading or writing type flags. The use of atomics is not sufficient to
avoid races (since flags are sometimes read without a lock and without
atomics) and are no longer required.
Make `warnings.catch_warnings()` use a context variable for holding
the warning filtering state if the `sys.flags.context_aware_warnings`
flag is set to true. This makes using the context manager thread-safe in
multi-threaded programs.
Add the `sys.flags.thread_inherit_context` flag. If true, starting a new
thread with `threading.Thread` will use a copy of the context
from the caller of `Thread.start()`.
Both these flags are set to true by default for the free-threaded build
and false for the default build.
Move the Python implementation of warnings.py into _py_warnings.py.
Make _contextvars a builtin module.

Move pycore_obmalloc.h include from pycore_interp_structs.h to
pycore_runtime_structs.h.
Add also comment explaining the purpose of each include in
pycore_interp_structs.h, pycore_runtime_structs.h and
pycore_structs.h.
Remove <stdbool.h> and <stddef.h> from pycore_structs.h.
