  Avoid symbol conflicts with `md5_*' symbols in third party extensions

Bug description:
  SRU

  We link most extensions as built-ins into the python binary. the md5_*
  symbols cause a conflict with external libs/extensions.  So just use
  the _Py-* namespace for these. See the Debian report for details.

  These are internal functions for the md5 module. Renaming them to the
  _Py_* namespace avoids the conflict.  There should not be any case
  where these are intentionally referenced. At least in the archive
  there are no known references, so the regression potential is limited
  to external binaries, and there it should be minimal to non-existing
  as well.
