Add a broader "traceback hiding" mechanism #2745

@nicoddemus

Description

@nicoddemus

The current __tracebackhide__ mechanism to hide internal code details from traceback entries is too brittle; some small refactor might start to show internal code details to users.

I propose adding a new __tracebackhideall__ mechanism which when found and set to True will strip all frames below it. This way we can add to __tracebackhideall__ at the module level of a package and any traceback from it will be hidden.
