Victor Stinner 09a25616a9 gh-109723: Disable Py_BUILD_CORE in _testcapi (#109727)
Make sure that the internal C API is not tested by mistake by
_testcapi.

Undefine Py_BUILD_CORE_BUILTIN and Py_BUILD_CORE_MODULE macros in
Modules/_testcapi/parts.h: move code from _testcapimodule.c.

heaptype_relative.c and vectorcall_limited.c are using the limited C
API which is incompatible with the internal C API.

Move test_long_numbits() from _testcapi to _testinternalcapi since it
uses the internal C API "pycore_long.h".

Fix Modules/_testcapi/pyatomic.c: don't include Python.h directly,
just include _testcapi/parts.h.

Ajust "make check-c-globals" for these changes.

Tests in this directory are compiled into the _testcapi extension.
The main file for the extension is Modules/_testcapimodule.c, which
calls `_PyTestCapi_Init_*` from these functions.

General guideline when writing test code for C API.
* Use Argument Clinic to minimise the amount of boilerplate code.
* Add a newline between the argument spec and the docstring.
* If a test description is needed, make sure the added docstring clearly and succinctly describes purpose of the function.
* DRY, use the clone feature of Argument Clinic.
* Try to avoid adding new interned strings; reuse existing parameter names if possible. Use the `as` feature of Argument Clinic to override the C variable name, if needed.
