The "pending call" machinery now works for all interpreters, not just the
main interpreter, and runs in all threads, not just the main thread. Some
calls are still only done in the main thread, ergo in the main interpreter.
This change does not affect signal handling nor the existing public C-API
(``Py_AddPendingCall()``), which both still only target the main thread. The
new functionality is meant strictly for internal use for now, since
consequences of its use are not well understood yet outside some very
restricted cases.  This change brings the capability in line with the
intention when the state was made per-interpreter several years ago.

In the beta 1 release we added a utility function for extension module
authors, to use when testing their module for support in multiple
interpreters or under a per-interpreter GIL.  The name of that function has
changed from ``allowing_all_extensions`` to
``_incompatible_extension_module_restrictions``.  The default for the
"disable_check" argument has change from ``True`` to ``False``, to better
match the new function name.
