* bpo-38234: Py_SetPath() uses the program full path (GH-16357)

Py_SetPath() now sets sys.executable to the program full path
(Py_GetProgramFullPath()), rather than to the program name
(Py_GetProgramName()).

Fix also memory leaks in pathconfig_set_from_config().

* bpo-38234: Add tests for Python init path config (GH-16358)

* bpo-38234: test_embed: test pyvenv.cfg and pybuilddir.txt (GH-16366)

Add test_init_pybuilddir() and test_init_pyvenv_cfg() to test_embed
to test pyvenv.cfg and pybuilddir.txt configuration files.

Fix sysconfig._generate_posix_vars(): pybuilddir.txt uses UTF-8
encoding, not ASCII.

* bpo-38234: Cleanup getpath.c (GH-16367)

* search_for_prefix() directly calls reduce() if found is greater
  than 0.
* Add calculate_pybuilddir() subfunction.
* search_for_prefix(): add path string buffer for readability.
* Fix some error handling code paths: release resources on error.
* calculate_read_pyenv(): rename tmpbuffer to filename.
* test.pythoninfo now also logs windows.dll_path

* bpo-38234: Fix test_embed pathconfig tests (GH-16390)

bpo-38234: On macOS and FreeBSD, the temporary directory can be
symbolic link. For example, /tmp can be a symbolic link to /var/tmp.
Call realpath() to resolve all symbolic links.

* bpo-38234: Add test_init_setpath_config() to test_embed (GH-16402)

* Add test_embed.test_init_setpath_config(): test Py_SetPath()
  with PyConfig.
* test_init_setpath() and test_init_setpythonhome() no longer call
  Py_SetProgramName(), but use the default program name.
* _PyPathConfig: isolated, site_import  and base_executable
  fields are now only available on Windows.
* If executable is set explicitly in the configuration, ignore
  calculated base_executable: _PyConfig_InitPathConfig() copies
  executable to base_executable.
* Complete path config documentation.

* bpo-38234: Fix test_embed.test_init_setpath_config() on FreeBSD (GH-16406)

Explicitly preinitializes with a Python preconfiguration to avoid
Py_SetPath() implicit preinitialization with a compat
preconfiguration.

Fix also test_init_setpath() and test_init_setpythonhome() on macOS:
use self.test_exe as the executable (and base_executable), rather
than shutil.which('python3').

* Fix typo in _PyWideStringList_Join().
