bpo-32212: Updated logging documentation to make parameter names more consistent with source. (GH-4765) (GH-4768)

(cherry picked from commit a9f8df64)

In fileio, there were 3 fstat() calls and one lseek() call that did not
release the GIL during the call. This can cause all threads to hang for
unlimited time when using io.FileIO with inaccessible NFS server.

Same issue seen in fileio exists also in fileobject, fixed in the same
way.

PyEval_InitThreads(), only call PyEval_InitThreads() after calling
PyThreadState_New() to fix a crash.

_PyObject_DebugReallocApi() now calls Py_FatalError() if realloc()
fails to shrink a memory block.

Call Py_FatalError() because _PyObject_DebugReallocApi() erased freed
bytes *before* realloc(), expecting that realloc() *cannot* fail to
shrink a memory block.

* bpo-31324: Optimize support._match_test() (#4421)

* Rename support._match_test() to support.match_test(): make it
  public
* Remove support.match_tests global variable. It is replaced with a
  new support.set_match_tests() function, so match_test() doesn't
  have to check each time if patterns were modified.
* Rewrite match_test(): use different code paths depending on the
  kind of patterns for best performances.

* Work around a GC process finalization bug.

The logging RLock instances may exist but the threading.RLock class
itself has already been emptied causing a
Exception TypeError: "'NoneType' object is not callable" in <function _removeHandlerRef ..."
to be printed to stderr on process termination.

This catches that exception and ignores it because there is absolutely
nothing we can or should do about it from the context of a weakref
handler called from the gc context.
