Subject: 00477: Raise an error when importing stdlib modules compiled for a
 different Python version

This is a downstream workaround "implementing"
https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/137212 -
the mechanism for the check exists in Python 3.15+, where it needs to be
added to the standard library modules.
In Fedora, we need it also in previous Python versions, as we experience
segmentation fault when importing stdlib modules after update while
Python is running.

_tkinter, _tracemalloc and readline are not calling PyModuleDef_Init,
which is modified with this patch, hence they need a
direct call to the check function.
