gh-149819: fix .pth and .start file processing in subprocess when inheriting PYTHONPATH (GH-150177)
* gh-149819: Fix .pth files not loaded in Python subprocesses
After PR gh-149583 (Fix double evaluation of .pth and .site files in
venvs), .pth files are no longer loaded in subprocesses started with
subprocess.run([sys.executable, ...]). The root cause: main() seeds
known_paths from removeduppaths() with all sys.path entries inherited
from the parent process. addsitedir() then skips .pth processing for
every directory already in known_paths.
Fix:
- main(): call removeduppaths() for dedup but start known_paths as a
fresh empty set, so that addsitedir() processes .pth files in every
site-packages directory regardless of inherited sys.path.
- addsitedir(): move known_paths.add() before the sys.path.append and
guard the append with 'sitedir not in sys.path' to avoid creating
duplicate entries when called with a fresh known_paths.
This preserves the gh-75723 dedup guarantee while allowing subprocesses
to load .pth files.
* Fill out the tests for GH#149888
* Extend _make_start() and _make_pth() to take an optional `basedir` which is used instead of
`site.tmpdir` if given.
* Add test_pth_processed_when_sitedir_already_on_path() to test the core GH#149819 bug: .pth files
in subprocesses aren't handled if PYTHONPATH pointing to the .pth directory is inherited.
* Similarly add test_start_processed_when_sitedir_already_on_path() to verify that .start files in
the same circumstances are also now processed.
* Update Lib/site.py
* Oops! Remove redundant code

* gh-149504: Fix re-entrancy bug when .pth/.start file invokes site.addsitedir() (#149659)
* Add re-entrant tests for gh-149504
* Add end-to-end integration test coverage
This ensures that future whitebox internal test changes do not regress the
public surface semantics.
* Implement a state class to process .pth and .start files
By using this state class and managing implicit and explicit batching, we make it structurally
impossible to get bitten by re-entrant site startup processing.
Fixes#149504

If the PYTHON_BASIC_REPL environment variable is set, the site module
no longer imports the _pyrepl module.
Moreover, the site module now respects -E and -I command line
options: ignore PYTHON_BASIC_REPL in this case.
On POSIX systems, excluding macOS framework installs, the lib directory
for the free-threaded build now includes a "t" suffix to avoid conflicts
with a co-located default build installation.
Tools such as ruff can ignore "imported but unused" warnings if a
line ends with "# noqa: F401". It avoids the temptation to remove
an import which is used effectively.
`Out-File -Encoding utf8` and similar commands in Windows Powershell 5.1 emit
UTF-8 with a BOM marker, which the regular `utf-8` codec decodes incorrectly.
`utf-8-sig` accepts a BOM, but also works correctly without one.
This change also makes .pth files match the way Python source files are handled.

This makes the asyncio REPL (`python -m asyncio`) more usable
and similar to the regular REPL.
This exposes register_readline() as a top-level function in site.py,
but it's intentionally undocumented.

The getpath.py file is frozen at build time and executed as code over a namespace. It is never imported, nor is it meant to be importable or reusable. However, it should be easier to read, modify, and patch than the previous code.
This commit attempts to preserve every previously tested quirk, but these may be changed in the future to better align platforms.
The default was "off". Switching it to "on" means users get the benefit of frozen stdlib modules without having to do anything. There's a special-case for running-in-source-tree, so contributors don't get surprised when their stdlib changes don't get used.

See [PEP 597](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0597/).
* Add `-X warn_default_encoding` and `PYTHONWARNDEFAULTENCODING`.
* Add EncodingWarning
* Add io.text_encoding()
* open(), TextIOWrapper() emits EncodingWarning when encoding is omitted and warn_default_encoding is enabled.
* _pyio.TextIOWrapper() uses UTF-8 as fallback default encoding used when failed to import locale module. (used during building Python)
* bz2, configparser, gzip, lzma, pathlib, tempfile modules use io.text_encoding().
* What's new entry
The write_history() atexit function of the readline completer now
ignores any OSError to ignore error if the filesystem is read-only,
instead of only ignoring FileNotFoundError and PermissionError.
Add --with-platlibdir option to the configure script: name of the
platform-specific library directory, stored in the new sys.platlitdir
attribute. It is used to build the path of platform-specific dynamic
libraries and the path of the standard library.
It is equal to "lib" on most platforms. On Fedora and SuSE, it is
equal to "lib64" on 64-bit systems.

sys._base_executable is now always defined on all platforms, and can be overridden through configuration.
Also adds test.support.PythonSymlink to encapsulate platform-specific logic for symlinking sys.executable
