KeyboardInterrupt about test for REPL was directly captured by the test program

Bug report

Bug description:

When I was writing test for PR #128467

# under class TestPyReplCompleter(line ≈ 806) Lib/test/test_pyrepl/test_pyrepl.py
 def test_completion_menu_cleared_after_KeyboardInterrupt(self):
 events = itertools.chain(
 code_to_events("int."),
 [
 Event(evt="key", data="\t", raw=bytearray(b"\t")),
 Event(evt="key", data="\t", raw=bytearray(b"\t")),
 Event(evt="key", data="\x03", raw=bytearray(b"\x03")), # Ctrl+C
 ],
 )

 namespace = {}
 reader = self.prepare_reader(events, namespace)
 output = multiline_input(reader, namespace)

 self.assertEqual(clean_screen(reader.screen), "int.") # asser condition isn't good now

I found the KeyboardInterrupt caused by Event(evt="key", data="\x03", raw=bytearray(b"\x03")) will be directly captured by the test program itself

# result of ".\python.bat -m test test_pyrepl.test_pyrepl -v"
== Tests result: INTERRUPTED ==

1 test omitted:
 test_pyrepl.test_pyrepl

Test suite interrupted by signal SIGINT.

Total duration: 1.3 sec
Total tests: run=0
Total test files: run=0/1
Result: INTERRUPTED

So I added a traceback in the test function

 def test_completion_menu_cleared_after_KeyboardInterrupt(self):
 events = itertools.chain(
 code_to_events("int."),
 [
 Event(evt="key", data="\t", raw=bytearray(b"\t")),
 Event(evt="key", data="\t", raw=bytearray(b"\t")),
 Event(evt="key", data="\x03", raw=bytearray(b"\x03")), # Ctrl+C
 ],
 )

 namespace = {}
 reader = self.prepare_reader(events, namespace)

 try:
 output = multiline_input(reader, namespace)
 except KeyboardInterrupt:
 traceback.print_exc()

 self.assertEqual(clean_screen(reader.screen), "int.")

I also added traceback.print_exc() in Lib/_pyrepl/simple_interact.py(line ≈ 164)(the user-facing REPL)

 except KeyboardInterrupt:
 traceback.print_exc() # here
 r = _get_reader()
 if r.input_trans is r.isearch_trans:
 r.do_cmd(("isearch-end", [""]))
 if r.cmpltn_menu_choices:
 r.cmpltn_reset()
 r.pos = len(r.get_unicode())
 r.dirty = True
 r.refresh()
 r.in_bracketed_paste = False
 console.write("\nKeyboardInterrupt\n")
 console.resetbuffer()

recompile and run

At the same time, the related error in the test is

So the KeyboardInterrupt in test did not behave correctly as if the user pressed Ctrl+C, but was directly captured by the test program

@cfbolz Hi there, I've seen you in several REPL-related issues both in CPython and PyPy repositories. You must be an expert in this area. I wonder if you have any insights on this current issue?

This is being fixed by #131509.

@ambv Hello, since hearing the good news that this issue has been fixed, I've been trying to write tests again for my first CPython PR #128467. However, after several days of attempts, I still haven't been able to do it. It seems a bit too difficult for me to handle the KeyboardInterrupt, and you appear to be an expert in this area. I was wondering if I could get some help and guidance from you.
