[New-bugs-announce] [issue1953] gc.compact_freelists

[Christian Heimes]

New submission from Christian Heimes:

The patch implements gc.compact_freelists() which calls PyInt and
PyFloat_CompactFreeList(). I've moved the code from the _Fini methods to
the _CompactFreeList() methods.

The patch also moves the clear type cache function to gc.clear_type_cache().
