Remove rexec and Bastion from the stdlib. This also eliminates the need for
f_restricted on frames. This in turn negates the need for
PyEval_GetRestricted() and PyFrame_IsRestricted().

Get test_pyclbr passing again after getstatus was removed from commands. This "test case" was weird since it was just importing a seemingly random module. Remove the import
