Weird `int.__str__` behaviour inside sub-interpreters

Bug report

Bug description:

Hi Python maintainers!

I noticed something weird when using subinterpreters, while converting an Enum to string I get an unexpected result. This occurs in Python 3.12 and 3.13.

Here's an script to reproduce it:

import _xxsubinterpreters as interpreters


script = """from enum import _simple_enum, IntEnum

@_simple_enum(IntEnum)
class MyEnum:
    DATA = 1
    
print(str(MyEnum.DATA))
"""

exec(script)
# Output: 1

interp_id = interpreters.create(isolated=False)
interpreters.run_string(interp_id, script)
# Output: <MyEnum.DATA: 1>, Expected: 1

In all python versions previous to 3.12 this prints "1" two times, on newer versions I get <MyEnum.DATA: 1> when running inside a subinterpreter. For some reason, the __str__ function being used is different on new Python versions.

I also noticed that the function pointed by __str__ is different inside and outside the subinterpreter.

Outside:

...
print(MyEnum.DATA.__str__)
# Output: <method-wrapper '__repr__' of MyEnum object at 0x7f9a09a2e910>

Inside:

...
print(MyEnum.DATA.__str__)
# Output: <method-wrapper '__str__' of MyEnum object at 0x7f9a099a5e90>

NOTE: I'm creating subinterpreters passing the isolated=False flag, which uses the Legacy init config.
I first noticed the error on MacOS, then reproduced using Docker with various Python versions.

I hope this is enough to get to the source of the issue.

Appreciate all your work and effort on building Python, thank you!

まず、提供された _xxsubinterpreters reproducer を enum._simple_enum とともに実行し、サブインタープリター内外で MyEnum.DATA.str を比較します。関連する CPython runtime と enum のエントリポイントを追跡し、その後、影響を受ける Python バージョン全体で動作が期待される文字列変換と一致することを確認します。issue には、最初に確認すべきリンク済み PR が多数列挙されています。
