[2.7] bpo-35925: Skip SSL tests that fail due to weak external certs or old TLS (GH-13124) (GH-13253)

Modern Linux distros such as Debian Buster have default OpenSSL system
configurations that reject connections to servers with weak certificates
by default. This causes our test suite run with external networking
resources enabled to skip these tests when they encounter such a
failure.

Fixing the network servers is a separate issue.
(cherry picked from commit 2cc0223f)

Changes to test_ssl.py required as 2.7 has legacy protocol tests.

The test_httplib.py change is omitted from this backport as
self-signed.pythontest.net's certificate was updated and the
test_nntplib.py change is not applicable on 2.7.

In Python-2.7, we were only searching for bind_textdomain_codeset in
libc.  We should have also checked for it in libintl.  This change from
Mel Flynn https://bugs.python.org/file24918/python27-configure.in.patch
fixes that.

* [2.7] bpo-36816: Update the self-signed.pythontest.net cert (GH-13192)

We updated the server, our testsuite must match.

The 2.7 tree also needed a certificate in the capath directory updated.
The filename for that was determined by `openssl x509 -in $cert.pem -subject_hash`.

bpo-28552, bpo-7774: Fix distutils.sysconfig if sys.executable is
None or an empty string: use os.getcwd() to initialize project_base.

Fix also the distutils build command: don't use sys.executable if
it's evaluated as false (None or empty string).

and Modules/_io/*.h.

A fix for 69e96910, which resulted in lchmod being disabled on all platforms, not just Linux.

(cherry picked from commit ed709d56)

Set CUSTOMIZED_OSX_COMPILER to True to disable
_osx_support.customize_compiler().

Fix reference leak hunting in regrtest: compute also deltas (of
reference count and file descriptor count) during warmup, to ensure
that everything is initialized before starting to hunt reference
leaks.

Other changes:

* Replace gc.collect() with support.gc_collect() in clear_caches()
* dash_R() is now more quiet with --quiet option (don't display
  progress).
* Precompute the full range for "for it in range(repcount):" to
  ensure that the iteration doesn't allocate anything new.
* dash_R() now is responsible to call warm_caches().

Fix an unlikely memory leak on conversion from string to float in the
function _Py_dg_strtod() used by float(str), complex(str),
pickle.load(), marshal.load(), etc.

Fix an unlikely memory leak in _Py_dg_strtod() on "undfl:" label:
rewrite memory management in this function to always release all
memory before exiting the function. Initialize variables to NULL, and
set them to NULL after calling Bfree() at the "cont:" label.

Note: Bfree(NULL) is well defined: it does nothing.
