[issue45696] "Deep-freeze": skip the marshal step by generating C code

[Guido van Rossum]

Guido van Rossum <guido at python.org> added the comment:

After PR 29118 is merged we get the benefits on UNIXy systems. We have several TODOs left then:

- (Definitely:) Generate Windows build files

- (Probably:) Find a way to avoid having to regenerate everything whenever any source file changes (any source file -> _bootstrap_python -> all generated files)

- (Maybe:) Consider putting all generated code together in one file, for more savings (and build simplification)
