New submission from STINNER Victor <vstin...@python.org>:

I propose to add PyConfig._isolated_interpreter configuration parameter to 
disallow threads, subprocesses and fork in a subinterpreter.

_xxsubinterpreter.create() gets a new keyword-only isolated=True parameter to 
opt-in for not isolated mode, which is the current behavior of 
Py_NewInterpreter(). For example, mod_wsgi would continue to run in "non 
isolated" mode.

Attached PR implements this change. With the change, os.fork() is allowed again 
in "non isolated" subinterpreters (like mod_wsgi). os.fork() was disallowed in 
subinterpreters in Python 3.8, but subprocess was still allowed.
