Add a new _PyType_GetSubclasses() function to get type's subclasses.

_PyType_GetSubclasses(type) returns a list which holds strong
refererences to subclasses. It is safer than iterating on
type->tp_subclasses which yields weak references and can be modified
during the iteration.

_PyType_GetSubclasses(type) now holds a reference to tp_subclasses
dict while creating the list of subclasses.

set_collection_flag_recursive() of _abc.c now uses
_PyType_GetSubclasses().
