gh-108765: Python.h no longer includes <ctype.h> (#108831)
Remove <ctype.h> in C files which don't use it; only sre.c and
_decimal.c still use it.
Remove _PY_PORT_CTYPE_UTF8_ISSUE code from pyport.h:
* Code added by commit b5047fd01948ab108edcc1b3c2c901d915814cfd
in 2004 for MacOSX and FreeBSD.
* Test removed by commit 52ddaefb6bab1a74ecffe8519c02735794ebfbe1
in 2007, since Python str type now uses locale independent
functions like Py_ISALPHA() and Py_TOLOWER() and the Unicode
database.
Modules/_sre/sre.c replaces _PY_PORT_CTYPE_UTF8_ISSUE with new
functions: sre_isalnum(), sre_tolower(), sre_toupper().
Remove unused includes:
* _localemodule.c: remove <stdio.h>.
* getargs.c: remove <float.h>.
* dynload_win.c: remove <direct.h>, it no longer calls _getcwd()
since commit fb1f68ed7cc1536482d1debd70a53c5442135fe2 (in 2001).
