_testcapi uses legacy single-phase initialization, which prevents us from being able to use it in subinterpreter tests. Historically, _testcapi was kept as single-phase because we needed a module to test single-phase init, but since we now have _testsinglephase, we can move it to multi-phase init.
This is currently blocking #136004, as _testcapi is needed for one of the tests.
