Use HTTPS for documents which are available by both HTTP and HTTPS
links, but there is no redirection from HTTP to HTTPS or vice versa.

Integer to and from text conversions via CPython's bignum `int` type is not safe against denial of service attacks due to malicious input. Very large input strings with hundred thousands of digits can consume several CPU seconds.

I wrote up [a one pager for the release managers](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1KjuF_aXlzPUxTK4BMgezGJ2Pn7uevfX7g0_mvgHlL7Y/edit#).
If an HTTP link is redirected to a same looking HTTPS link, the latter can
be used directly without changes in readability and behavior.
It protects from a men-in-the-middle attack.
This change does not affect Python examples..

Add the -P command line option and the PYTHONSAFEPATH environment
variable to not prepend a potentially unsafe path to sys.path.
* Add sys.flags.safe_path flag.
* Add PyConfig.safe_path member.
* Programs/_bootstrap_python.c uses config.safe_path=0.
* Update subprocess._optim_args_from_interpreter_flags() to handle
the -P command line option.
* Modules/getpath.py sets safe_path to 1 if a "._pth" file is
present.
When Python is built with "./configure --enable-pystats" (if the
Py_STATS macro is defined), the _Py_GetSpecializationStats() function
must be exported, since it's used by the _opcode extension which is
built as a shared library.
- Remove ``--with-tclk-*`` options from `configure`
- Use pkg-config to detect `_tkinter` dependencies (Tcl/Tk, X11)
- Manual override via environment variables `TCLTK_CFLAGS` and `TCLTK_LIBS`
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.

Replace old names when they refer to actual versions of macOS.
Keep historical names in references to older versions.

Currently we freeze several modules into the runtime. For each of these modules it is essential to bootstrapping the runtime that they be frozen. Any other stdlib module that we later freeze into the runtime is not essential. We can just as well import from the .py file. This PR lets users explicitly choose which should be used, with the new "-X frozen_modules=[on|off]" CLI flag. The default is "off" for now.
