When Python is compiled with Valgrind support, release Unicode
interned strings at exit in _PyUnicode_Fini().

  • Rename _Py_ReleaseInternedUnicodeStrings() to
    unicode_release_interned() and make it private.
  • unicode_release_interned() is now called from _PyUnicode_Fini():
    it must be called with a running Python thread state for TRASHCAN,
    it cannot be called from pymain_free().
  • Don't display statistics on interned strings at exit anymore

@ericsnowcurrently: I'm not sure if interned strings are supposed to survive Py_Finalize(). I don't think so. Anyway, after Py_Finalize(), we cannot free interned strings anymore, since the code uses Py_TRASHCAN API which requires a valid Python thread state... but Py_Finalize() free all Python thread states!
