bpo-40010: Optimize signal handling in multithreaded applications (GH-19067)

If a thread different than the main thread gets a signal, the
bytecode evaluation loop is no longer interrupted at each bytecode
instruction to check for pending signals which cannot be handled.
Only the main thread of the main interpreter can handle signals.

Previously, the bytecode evaluation loop was interrupted at each
instruction until the main thread handles signals.

Changes:

* COMPUTE_EVAL_BREAKER() and SIGNAL_PENDING_SIGNALS() no longer set
  eval_breaker to 1 if the current thread cannot handle signals.
* take_gil() now always recomputes eval_breaker.
