[New-bugs-announce] [issue23848] faulthandler: setup an exception handler on Windows

[STINNER Victor]

New submission from STINNER Victor:

Attached patch setup an exception handler on Windows.

I wrote it when investigating a failure of test_exceptions related to the issue #22977. faulthandler was not trigerred while the program crashed.

I didn't test the patch yet (I tested a previous attempt, a little bit different). Maybe we can avoid setting signal handlers on Windows if an exception handler is set?
