[3.7] bpo-36492: Fix passing special keyword arguments to some functions. (GH-12637) (GH-12645)

The following arguments can be passed as keyword arguments for passing
to other function if the corresponding required argument is passed as
positional:

- "func" in functools.partialmethod(), weakref.finalize(),
  profile.Profile.runcall(), cProfile.Profile.runcall(),
  bdb.Bdb.runcall(), trace.Trace.runfunc() and
  curses.wrapper().
- "function" in unittest.addModuleCleanup() and
  unittest.TestCase.addCleanup().
- "fn" in the submit() method of concurrent.futures.ThreadPoolExecutor
  and concurrent.futures.ProcessPoolExecutor.
- "callback" in contextlib.ExitStack.callback(),
  contextlib.AsyncExitStack.callback() and
  contextlib.AsyncExitStack.push_async_callback().
- "c" and "typeid" in multiprocessing.managers.Server.create().
- "obj" in weakref.finalize().
