Initialize the Python interpreter. No other pybind11 or CPython API functions can be
called before this is done; with the exception of `PYBIND11_EMBEDDED_MODULE`. The
optional parameter can be used to skip the registration of signal handlers (see the
Python documentation for details). Calling this function again after the interpreter
`Python documentation`_ for details). Calling this function again after the interpreter
has already been initialized is a fatal error.
If initializing the Python interpreter fails, then the program is terminated. (This
is controlled by the CPython runtime and is an exception to pybind11's normal behavior
of throwing exceptions on errors.)
