gh-112088: Run autoreconf in GHA check_generated_files (#112090)
The "Check if generated files are up to date" job of GitHub Actions
now runs the "autoreconf -ivf -Werror" command instead of the "make
regen-configure" command to avoid depending on the external quay.io
server.
Add Tools/build/regen-configure.sh script to regenerate the configure
with an Ubuntu container image. The
"quay.io/tiran/cpython_autoconf:271" container image
(https://github.com/tiran/cpython_autoconf) is no longer used.

gh-107298: Document PyMODINIT_FUNC macro (GH-109236)
Document PyMODINIT_FUNC macro.
Remove links to PyAPI_FUNC() and PyAPI_DATA() macros since they are
not documented. These macros should only be used to define the Python
C API. They should not be used outside Python code base.

gh-108740: Fix "make regen-all" race condition (#108741)
Fix a race condition in "make regen-all". The deepfreeze.c source and
files generated by Argument Clinic are now generated or updated
before generating "global objects". Previously, some identifiers may
miss depending on the order in which these files were generated.
* "make regen-global-objects": Make sure that deepfreeze.c is
generated and up to date, and always run "make clinic".
* "make clinic" no longer runs generate_global_objects.py script.
* "make regen-deepfreeze" now only updates deepfreeze.c (C file).
It doesn't build deepfreeze.o (object) anymore.
* Remove misleading messages in "make regen-global-objects" and
"make clinic". They are now outdated, these commands are now
safe to use.
* Document generates files in Doc/using/configure.rst.

Apply BOLT optimizations to libpython for shared builds. Most of the C
code is in libpython so it is critical to apply BOLT there fully realize
BOLT benefits.
This change also reworks how BOLT instrumentation is applied. It
effectively removes the readelf based logic added in gh-101525 and
replaces it with a mechanism that saves a copy of the pre-bolt binary
and restores that copy when necessary. This allows us to perform BOLT
optimizations without having to manually delete the output binary to
force a new bolt run.
Also:
- add a clean-bolt target for purging BOLT files and hook that up to the
clean target
- .gitignore BOLT related files
Before and after this refactor, `make` will no-op after a previous run.
Both versions should also share common make DAG deficiencies where
targets fail to trigger as often as they need to or can trigger
prematurely in certain scenarios. e.g. after this change you may need to
`rm profile-bolt-stamp` to force a BOLT run because there aren't
appropriate non-phony targets for BOLT's make target to depend on.
To make it easier to iterate on custom BOLT settings, the flags to pass
to instrumentation and application are now defined in configure and can
be overridden by passing BOLT_INSTRUMENT_FLAGS and BOLT_APPLY_FLAGS.
The word 'dependent' is both an adjective and a noun. A 'dependant' is a British alternative spelling for the noun form. In idlelib.sidebar, 'OS-dependant' is an adjective and clearly wrong. In 'Using', 'dependant' as a noun would be acceptable in Britain, but we use American spellings in Python docs.

It has had no effect on non-macOS platforms for a long time, and has had
the non-obvious effect of invoking `pkg_config` and not setting
`-DUSING_APPLE_OS_LIBFFI` on macOS since GH-22855.
