bpo-17005: Move topological sort functionality to its own module (GH-20558)
The topological sort functionality that was introduced initially in the functools module has been moved to a new graphlib module to better accommodate the new tools and keep the original scope of the functools module. (cherry picked from commit 2f172d8f1525defe9bba4d49e967fdfc69151731) Co-authored-by: Pablo Galindo <Pablogsal@gmail.com>
