Get the "Current" Thread State from a Thread-local #103323
Description
(This is a revival of gh-84702, which @vstinner worked on several years ago.)
For a per-interpreter GIL (PEP 684) we need to start storing the "current" thread state in a thread-local variable, rather than _PyRuntime.tstate_current. There may be other benefits to the approach if we can take advantage of native compiler support (e.g. C11's __thread_local).
