gh-148144: Initialize visited on copied interpreter frames (#148143)
_PyFrame_Copy() copied interpreter frames into generator and frame-object storage without initializing the visited byte. Incremental GC later reads frame->visited in mark_stacks() on non-start passes, so copied frames could expose an uninitialized value once they became live on a thread stack again. Reset visited when copying a frame so copied frames start with defined GC bookkeeping state. Preserve lltrace in Py_DEBUG builds.
