Numeric fields of type float, notably mtime, can't be represented
exactly in the ustar header, so the pax header is used. But it is
helpful to set them to the nearest int (i.e. second rather than
nanosecond precision mtimes) in the ustar header as well, for the
benefit of unarchivers that don't understand the pax header.
Add test for tarfile.TarInfo.create_pax_header to confirm correct
behaviour.
This change adds variables that had been added since the last time the whitelist was updated. It also cleans up the list a little.

We're no longer using _Py_IDENTIFIER() (or _Py_static_string()) in any core CPython code. It is still used in a number of non-builtin stdlib modules.
The replacement is: PyUnicodeObject (not pointer) fields under _PyRuntimeState, statically initialized as part of _PyRuntime. A new _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() macro facilitates lookup of the fields (along with _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() for non-identifier strings).
https://bugs.python.org/issue46541#msg411799 explains the rationale for this change.
The core of the change is in:
* (new) Include/internal/pycore_global_strings.h - the declarations for the global strings, along with the macros
* Include/internal/pycore_runtime_init.h - added the static initializers for the global strings
* Include/internal/pycore_global_objects.h - where the struct in pycore_global_strings.h is hooked into _PyRuntimeState
* Tools/scripts/generate_global_objects.py - added generation of the global string declarations and static initializers
I've also added a --check flag to generate_global_objects.py (along with make check-global-objects) to check for unused global strings. That check is added to the PR CI config.
The remainder of this change updates the core code to use _Py_GET_GLOBAL_IDENTIFIER() instead of _Py_IDENTIFIER() and the related _Py*Id functions (likewise for _Py_GET_GLOBAL_STRING() instead of _Py_static_string()). This includes adding a few functions where there wasn't already an alternative to _Py*Id(), replacing the _Py_Identifier * parameter with PyObject *.
The following are not changed (yet):
* stop using _Py_IDENTIFIER() in the stdlib modules
* (maybe) get rid of _Py_IDENTIFIER(), etc. entirely -- this may not be doable as at least one package on PyPI using this (private) API
* (maybe) intern the strings during runtime init

In [Lib/test/support/import_helper.py](https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/test/support/import_helper.py), the function `make_legacy_pyc` makes a call to `os.rename` which can fail when the source and target live on different devices. This happens (for example) when `PYTHONPYCACHEPREFIX` is set to a directory anywhere on disk, while a ramdisk is mounted on `/tmp` (the latter of which is the default on various Linux distros). Replacing `os.rename` with `shutil.move` fixes this.

The calendar.LocaleTextCalendar and calendar.LocaleHTMLCalendar
classes module now use locale.getlocale(), instead of using
locale.getdefaultlocale(), if no locale is specified.
Cast PY_TIMEOUT_MAX to double, not to _PyTime_t.
Fix the clang warning:
Modules/_threadmodule.c:1648:26: warning: implicit conversion from
'_PyTime_t' (aka 'long') to 'double' changes value from
9223372036854775 to 9223372036854776
[-Wimplicit-const-int-float-conversion]
double timeout_max = (_PyTime_t)PY_TIMEOUT_MAX * 1e-6;

ctypes.CFUNCTYPE() and ctypes.WINFUNCTYPE() now fail to create the
type if its "_argtypes_" member contains too many arguments.
Previously, the error was only raised when calling a function.
Change also how CFUNCTYPE() and WINFUNCTYPE() handle KeyError to
prevent creating a chain of exceptions if ctypes.CFuncPtr raises an
error.
bytesobject.c, bytearrayobject.c and unicodeobject.c now define all
macros used by stringlib, to avoid using undefined macros.
Fix "gcc -Wundef" warnings.
skip_if_buggy_ucrt_strfptime() of test.support now uses
locale.getpreferredencoding(False) instead of
locale.getdefaultlocale() to get the Windows code page.
encodings registers the _alias_mbcs() codec search function before
the search_function() codec search function. Previously, the
_alias_mbcs() was never used.
Fix the test_codecs.test_mbcs_alias() test: use the current ANSI code
page, not a fake ANSI code page number.
Remove the test_site.test_aliasing_mbcs() test: the alias is now
implemented in the encodings module, no longer in the site module.
