gh-108303: Remove the non-test Lib/test/reperf.py

[sobolevn]

Looks like this file was not touched for at least 12 years: https://github.com/python/cpython/commits/main/Lib/test/reperf.py

It does not seem useful. If it is, I can instead move it to Tool/scripts.

apparently test_embed.py runs this code?

Ok, looks like it was used recently in #110769 by @ambv
I think that this has nothing to do with reperf, it just needs any rather complex module.

I propose to:

• replace test_embed's code to generate the module from code, so it would have no depedencies
• still remove this module, we are cleaning things up, aren't we? :)

I am now using another file instead of reperf, it is already used in test_embed and is useful for this test as well: it prints the information, it has some imports, it does some checks.

So, we can remove the unneeded reperf 🎉

test_embed no longer runs the code

LGTM, but I'd rather not backport the removal.

@encukou looks like this PR #113601 influenced the CI. I fixed tests, so now both ./python.exe -m test test_embed and ./python.exe Lib/test/_test_embed_structseq.py pass:

» ./python.exe Lib/test/_test_embed_structseq.py            
..

OK
Tests passed

Please, take another look :)

OK. Thanks!
