[New-bugs-announce] [issue31921] Bring together logic for entering/leaving a frame in frameobject.c

[pdox]

New submission from pdox <pdox at alum.mit.edu>:

This is a refactor to move all the code involved in entering a frame (making it the active frame for the current tstate) and leaving a frame (removing it as an active frame, possibly destructing it or making it GC tracked) into private functions in frameobject.c.

The underlying goal of this change is to make it possible to add (as a performance feature) stack-allocated frames, in addition to the usual heap-allocated ones.
