Expect the test to be "short" but don't measure the exact performance
of the CI. SHORT_TIMEOUT is about 30 seconds whereas the cancelled

Sync whatsnew with the edit I made in the 3.12 backport PR. (#109807)
A post main merge edit to the text was added in the 3.12 backport PR.
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/109773/commits/e38d7104b8f245e5db6d487932c44edf0d2c4762
This includes that in main. It's a minor edit over #109767 to resolve the comment there.
gh-109521: Fix obscure cases handling in PyImport_GetImporter() (GH-109522)
PyImport_GetImporter() now sets RuntimeError if it fails to get sys.path_hooks
or sys.path_importer_cache or they are not list and dict correspondingly.
Previously it could return NULL without setting error in obscure cases,
crash or raise SystemError if these attributes have wrong type.
This fixes issue #105829, https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/105829

gh-109582: test_fork_signal_handling should wait for event (#109605)
Sometimes the child_handled event was missing because either
the child quits before it gets a chance to handle the signal,
or the parent asserts before the event notification is
delivered via IPC. Synchronize explicitly to avoid this.

gh-109613: _pystat_fromstructstat() checks for exceptions (#109618)
Fix os.stat() and os.DirEntry.stat(): check for exceptions.
Previously, on Python built in debug mode, these functions could
trigger a fatal Python error (and abort the process) when a function
succeeded with an exception set.
_pystat_fromstructstat() now exits immediately if an exception is
raised, rather only checking for exceptions at the end. It fix
following fatal error in fill_time():
Fatal Python error: _Py_CheckSlotResult:
Slot * of type int succeeded with an exception set
SubprocessProtocol process_exited() method can be called before
pipe_data_received() and pipe_connection_lost() methods. Document it
and adapt the test for that.
Revert commit 282edd7b2a74c4dfe1bfe3c5b1d30f9c21d554d6.
_child_watcher_callback() calls immediately _process_exited(): don't
add an additional delay with call_soon(). The reverted change didn't
make _process_exited() more determistic: it can still be called
before pipe_connection_lost() for example.

Skip test_freeze_simple_script() of test_tools.test_freeze if Python

gh-90108: Disable LTO on _freeze_module and _testembed (#109581)
LTO optimization is nice to make Python faster, but _freeze_module
and _testembed performance is not important. Using LTO to build these
two programs make a whole Python build way slower, especially
combined with a sanitizer (like ASAN).
gh-109033: Return filename with os.utime errors (#109034)
The filename was previously intentionally omitted from exception because
"it might confuse the user". Uncaught exceptions are not generally a
replacement for user-facing error messages, so obscuring this
information only has the effect of making the programmer's life more
difficult.

gh-108724: Add PyMutex and _PyParkingLot APIs (gh-109344)
PyMutex is a one byte lock with fast, inlineable lock and unlock functions for the common uncontended case. The design is based on WebKit's WTF::Lock.
PyMutex is built using the _PyParkingLot APIs, which provides a cross-platform futex-like API (based on WebKit's WTF::ParkingLot). This internal API will be used for building other synchronization primitives used to implement PEP 703, such as one-time initialization and events.
This also includes tests and a mini benchmark in Tools/lockbench/lockbench.py to compare with the existing PyThread_type_lock.
The primary purpose of this PR is to implement PyMutex, but there are a number of support pieces (described below).
* PyMutex: A 1-byte lock that doesn't require memory allocation to initialize and is generally faster than the existing PyThread_type_lock. The API is internal only for now.
* _PyParking_Lot: A futex-like API based on the API of the same name in WebKit. Used to implement PyMutex.
* _PyRawMutex: A word sized lock used to implement _PyParking_Lot.
* PyEvent: A one time event. This was used a bunch in the "nogil" fork and is useful for testing the PyMutex implementation, so I've included it as part of the PR.
* pycore_llist.h: Defines common operations on doubly-linked list. Not strictly necessary (could do the list operations manually), but they come up frequently in the "nogil" fork. ( Similar to https://man.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?queue)
