In gh-102744 we added is_core_module() (in Python/import.c), which relies on 'get_core_module_dict()(also added in that PR). The problem is that_PyImport_FixupBuiltin(), which ultimately calls is_core_module(), is called on the builtins module before interp->builtins_copyis set. Consequently, the builtins module isn't considered a "core" module while it is getting "fixed up" and its module defm_copy` get set. Under isolated interpreters this causes problems since sys and builtins are allowed even though they are still single-phase init modules. (This was discovered while working on gh-101660.)

The solution is to stop relying on get_core_module_dict() in is_core_module().
