[issue15751] Support subinterpreters in the GIL state API

[Graham Dumpleton]

Graham Dumpleton added the comment:

If PyGILState_STATE is a struct, what happens if someone naively does:

PyGILState_Release(PyGILState_UNLOCKED)

I know they shouldn't, but I actually do this in mod_wsgi in one spot as it is otherwise a pain to carry around the state when I know for sure if was unlocked before the PyGILState_Ensure().

Or can PyGILState_UNLOCKED map to some a global struct instance with certain state in it that represents that without problem.
