Add the eager-runtime hook required by Python 3.15 importlib - #8946

• This PR follows our AI policy

Summary

Add _imp._set_lazy_attributes(modobj, name, /), the private hook required by CPython 3.15 importlib after module loading.

In CPython v3.15.0rc2, this hook discards name from the pending lazy-module registry. RustPython currently executes imports eagerly and has no pending lazy entries. The implementation therefore validates the arguments and preserves string-subclass hashing (including exceptions), without modifying the module object.

This is a small native prerequisite for the target/site/importlib/test-support migration. It does not implement PEP 810 lazy imports. When a real lazy-module registry is introduced, this hook must remove the corresponding pending entry.

Only _imp.rs and one regression snippet change. The target version, bundled libraries, compiler, sentinel builtin, and cached import callback remain unchanged. The callback adjustment stays with the importlib migration, whose hierarchical-lock changes are needed for the concurrent-import cases.

Validation

Hook-only branch at 29d5ba99196b4a41c48946ee90ab762d5affa739:

• Release build with SQLite enabled: passed
• Source-isolation probe confirms unchanged Python 3.14 target, branch-local site/importlib/test.support, and the original cached import callback; no sentinel or compile(module=...) code is present
• New hook snippet passes on RustPython and exact CPython 3.15.0rc2, including invalid argument types, positional-only use, string subclasses, surrogate names, and hash exceptions
• -m test test_site test_support test_importlib test_pkgutil test_import --timeout 180: 1,676 run, 113 skipped; all five suites successful
• Full bounded snippet aggregate: 469 passed, 13 failed. All failures match the unchanged environment/stress cases: ten AF_UNIX socket permission failures, two chown errno differences, and one CPython 3.14 GC/import timeout. RustPython's new hook case and GC/import stress case pass
• Configured commit hooks and diff checks pass

The identical hook code also passed full Rust validation in the broader native-import candidate e2f1ed22366d258f4352e5ffaccebefa0bbfe467: workspace 1,345 passed/18 ignored, separate C-API 115 passed/4 ignored, and both all-targets Clippy commands clean. Those full Rust aggregates were not rerun after dropping the separate cached-importer change; the smaller branch was independently rebuilt and runtime-tested as above. No full Python 3.15 compatibility claim is made.

The snippet follows the existing skip_if_unsupported convention: every assertion always runs on RustPython; only the CPython comparison below 3.15 skips this unavailable API. It also runs separately against exact CPython 3.15.0rc2, commit 435c9e5a798c99653e3ab64ce29baed0e4f3dfee.

AI assistance

OpenAI Codex assisted with implementation, CPython comparison, tests, review, and this description under maintainer direction. The runtime did not expose the exact model version. Reported checks are automated Linux x86_64 verification; no additional human-use or untested-platform validation is claimed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Added support for _imp._set_lazy_attributes, allowing callers to set lazy-attribute metadata in eager-import environments. The operation returns None for string names and reports errors for invalid names or hashing failures.
• Tests
  • Added coverage for accepted arguments, invalid name types, string subclasses, and propagated hashing errors.
