[issue4804] Python on Windows disables all C runtime library assertions

[Kristján Valur Jónsson]

Here is what I think is a better attempt at the selective-disabling.  I 
did away with the messy macros and added a function in errors.c.  This 
maintans a global 'level' variable, implicitly guarded by the GIL.  Now 
only the thread that first enters a guarded block will set the hendler, 
and the thread that is last to leave will reset it.  This should 
guarantee that between the two macros, our custom handler is set, and 
that no thread pulls the rug from underneath another.
