bpo-39164: Add private _PyErr_GetExcInfo() function (GH-17752)

This adds a new function named _PyErr_GetExcInfo() that is a variation of the
original PyErr_GetExcInfo() taking a PyThreadState as its first argument.
That function allows to retrieve the exceptions information of any Python
thread -- not only the current one.
