bpo-45395: Make custom frozen modules additions instead of replacements. (gh-28778)

Currently custom modules (the array set on PyImport_FrozenModules) replace all the frozen stdlib modules. That can be problematic and is unlikely to be what the user wants. This change treats the custom frozen modules as additions instead. They take precedence over all other frozen modules except for those needed to bootstrap the import system. If the "code" field of an entry in the custom array is NULL then that frozen module is treated as disabled, which allows a custom entry to disable a frozen stdlib module.

This change allows us to get rid of is_essential_frozen_module() and simplifies the logic for which frozen modules should be ignored.
