gh-142927: Hide _sync_coordinator frames from profiler output - #143337

When running scripts via "python -m profiling.sampling run", the internal _sync_coordinator module appears in stack traces between runpy and user code. These frames are implementation details that clutter the output and provide no useful information to users analyzing their program's behavior. The fix adds a filter_internal_frames function that removes frames from _sync_coordinator.py anywhere in the call stack. This is applied in both the base Collector._iter_all_frames method and directly in GeckoCollector which bypasses the iterator. Tests cover all collector types: pstats, flamegraph, collapsed stack, and gecko formats.
