This function was added to a public header in [1] probably
unintentionally since it's not used anywhere, exposes implementation
details, and isn't related to the goals of that pull request.

Previously, because opt_aref and opt_aset don't push a frame, when they
would call rb_hash to determine the hash value of the key, the initial
level of recursion would incorrectly use the method id at the top of the
stack instead of "hash".
This commit replaces rb_exec_recursive_outer with
rb_exec_recursive_outer_mid, which takes an explicit method id, so that
we can make the hash calculation behave consistently.
rb_exec_recursive_outer was documented as being internal, so I believe
this should be okay to change.

Design:
- This tries to minimize the overhead when no hook is registered.
It should only incur an extra unsynchronized boolean check.
- The hook list is protected with a read-write lock as to cause
contention when some hooks are registered.
- The hooks MUST be thread safe, and MUST NOT call into Ruby as they
are executed outside the GVL.
- It's simply a noop on Windows.
API:
```
rb_internal_thread_event_hook_t * rb_internal_thread_add_event_hook(rb_internal_thread_event_callback callback, rb_event_flag_t internal_event, void *user_data);
bool rb_internal_thread_remove_event_hook(rb_internal_thread_event_hook_t * hook);
```
You can subscribe to 3 events:
- READY: called right before attempting to acquire the GVL
- RESUMED: called right after successfully acquiring the GVL
- SUSPENDED: called right after releasing the GVL.
The hooks MUST be threadsafe, as they are executed outside of the GVL, they also MUST NOT call any Ruby API.
Having more size pools will allow us to allocate larger objects
through Variable Width Allocation.
I have attached some benchmark results below.

[Feature #18683]
This allows parsers and similar libraries to create Hashes of
a certain capacity in advance. It's useful when the key and values
are streamed, hence `bulk_insert()` can't be used.
This commit reintroduces finer-grained constant cache invalidation.
After 8008fb7 got merged, it was causing issues on token-threaded
builds (such as on Windows).
The issue was that when you're iterating through instruction sequences
and using the translator functions to get back the instruction structs,
you're either using `rb_vm_insn_null_translator` or
`rb_vm_insn_addr2insn2` depending if it's a direct-threading build.
`rb_vm_insn_addr2insn2` does some normalization to always return to
you the non-trace version of whatever instruction you're looking at.
`rb_vm_insn_null_translator` does not do that normalization.
This means that when you're looping through the instructions if you're
trying to do an opcode comparison, it can change depending on the type
of threading that you're using. This can be very confusing. So, this
commit creates a new translator function
`rb_vm_insn_normalizing_translator` to always return the non-trace
version so that opcode comparisons don't have to worry about different
configurations.
[Feature #18589]

"Finer-grained inline constant cache invalidation"
MSWin builds on AppVeyor have been crashing since the merger.
Current behavior - caches depend on a global counter. All constant mutations cause caches to be invalidated.
```ruby
class A
B = 1
end
def foo
A::B # inline cache depends on global counter
end
foo # populate inline cache
foo # hit inline cache
C = 1 # global counter increments, all caches are invalidated
foo # misses inline cache due to `C = 1`
```
Proposed behavior - caches depend on name components. Only constant mutations with corresponding names will invalidate the cache.
```ruby
class A
B = 1
end
def foo
A::B # inline cache depends constants named "A" and "B"
end
foo # populate inline cache
foo # hit inline cache
C = 1 # caches that depend on the name "C" are invalidated
foo # hits inline cache because IC only depends on "A" and "B"
```
Examples of breaking the new cache:
```ruby
module C
# Breaks `foo` cache because "A" constant is set and the cache in foo depends
# on "A" and "B"
class A; end
end
B = 1
```
We expect the new cache scheme to be invalidated less often because names aren't frequently reused. With the cache being invalidated less, we can rely on its stability more to keep our constant references fast and reduce the need to throw away generated code in YJIT.
This commit implements arrays on Variable Width Allocation. This allows
longer arrays to be embedded (i.e. contents directly follow the object
header) which improves performance through better cache locality.
Header file include/ruby/internal/abi.h contains RUBY_ABI_VERSION which
is the ABI version. This value should be bumped whenever an ABI
incompatible change is introduced.
When loading dynamic libraries, Ruby will compare its own
`ruby_abi_version` and the `ruby_abi_version` of the loaded library. If
these two values don't match it will raise a `LoadError`. This feature
can also be turned off by setting the environment variable
`RUBY_RUBY_ABI_CHECK=0`.
This feature will prevent cases where previously installed native gems
fail in unexpected ways due to incompatibility of changes in header
files. This will force the developer to recompile their gems to use the
same header files as the built Ruby.
In Ruby, the ABI version is exposed through
`RbConfig::CONFIG["ruby_abi_version"]`.
Configuration for mingw32 can't detect 'shutdown' due to wrong -l
option even though it's available (this has been going on for a while,
and it needs to be fixed).
In this situation, include/ruby/missing.h declares a stub shutdown
function since 7ee786388a, and another shutdown decl is came from
system header. They are incompatible at stdcall attribute, so it
causes compilation failure.
This change defines a HAVE_SHUTDOWN to guard a newly introduced stub
decl in include/ruby/missing.h
At least OpenBSD/sparc64 doesn't appear to define them, and possibly
some other OpenBSD GCC platforms don't (most OpenBSD platforms have
already switched to clang).
- prerequisite of supporting YJIT with VC++.
- note that now can specfily `--yjit` on mswin64, but not enabled
YJIT'ed code because of YJIT requires `OPT_DIRECT_THREADED_CODE`
or `OPT_CALL_THREADED_CODE` in `rb_yjit_compile_iseq`.
