`_PyStaticCode_InternStrings` is called ~800 times during startup.

The _Py_Deepfreeze_Init() function calls _PyStaticCode_InternStrings once for each string.

Creating the interned string dict in one go, from the table of static strings would be much faster.
something like this (error checking omitted, and other liberties taken for brevity)

_Py_CreateInternedDict(PyObject **strs, int n) {
   PyDictKeys *table = make_dict_keys(n);
   for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        table->entries[i].key = table->entries[i].value = strs[i];
        table->entries[i].hashcode = strs[i].hash_code;
        // Fix up size and entries here.
   }
   return new_dict(table);
}

All the hash codes will need to be initialized first, but we probably should do that anyway.

Start by tracing _Py_Deepfreeze_Init() and its calls to _PyStaticCode_InternStrings. Review how the interned string dictionary and string hash codes are initialized, then determine whether the proposed bulk construction preserves the required dictionary state and startup behavior.
