gh-110850: Cleanup pycore_time.h includes (#115724)
<pycore_time.h> include is no longer needed to get the PyTime_t type
in internal header files. This type is now provided by <Python.h>
include. Add <pycore_time.h> includes to C files instead.

// ParkingLot is an internal API for building efficient synchronization
// primitives like mutexes and events.
//
// The API and name is inspired by WebKit's WTF::ParkingLot, which in turn
// is inspired Linux's futex API.
// See https://webkit.org/blog/6161/locking-in-webkit/.
//
// The core functionality is an atomic "compare-and-sleep" operation along with
// an atomic "wake-up" operation.

// Checks that `*address == *expected` and puts the thread to sleep until an
// unpark operation is called on the same `address`. Otherwise, the function
// returns `Py_PARK_AGAIN`. The comparison behaves like memcmp, but is
// performed atomically with respect to unpark operations.
//
// The `address_size` argument is the size of the data pointed to by the
// `address` and `expected` pointers (i.e., sizeof(*address)). It must be
// 1, 2, 4, or 8.
//
// The `timeout_ns` argument specifies the maximum amount of time to wait, with
// -1 indicating an infinite wait.
//
// `park_arg`, which can be NULL, is passed to the unpark operation.
//
// If `detach` is true, then the thread will detach/release the GIL while
// waiting.
//
// Example usage:
//
// if (_Py_atomic_compare_exchange_uint8(address, &expected, new_value)) {
// int res = _PyParkingLot_Park(address, &new_value, sizeof(*address),
// timeout_ns, NULL, 1);
