bpo-20891: Fix PyGILState_Ensure() (#4650) (#4655)
When PyGILState_Ensure() is called in a non-Python thread before PyEval_InitThreads(), only call PyEval_InitThreads() after calling PyThreadState_New() to fix a crash. Add an unit test in test_embed. Enhance also embedded tests, backport from master: * Add test_pre_initialization_api() * Set PYTHONIOENCODING environment variable in test_forced_io_encoding() (cherry picked from commit b4d1e1f7c1af6ae33f0e371576c8bcafedb099db)
