... (unsigned long and unsigned int) to avoid an undefined behaviour with
Py_TPFLAGS_TYPE_SUBCLASS ((1 << 31). PyType_GetFlags() result type is now
unsigned too (unsigned long, instead of long).
* Simplify the code: replace 4 steps with one unique step using the
_PyUnicodeWriter API. PyUnicode_Format() has the same design. It avoids to
store intermediate results which require to allocate an array of pointers on
the heap.
* Use the _PyUnicodeWriter API for speed (and its convinient API):
overallocate the buffer to reduce the number of "realloc()"
* Implement "width" and "precision" in Python, don't rely on sprintf(). It
avoids to need of a temporary buffer allocated on the heap: only use a small
buffer allocated in the stack.
* Add _PyUnicodeWriter_WriteCstr() function
* Split PyUnicode_FromFormatV() into two functions: add
unicode_fromformat_arg().
* Inline parse_format_flags(): the format of an argument is now only parsed
once, it's no more needed to have a subfunction.
* Optimize PyUnicode_FromFormatV() for characters between two "%" arguments:
search the next "%" and copy the substring in one chunk, instead of copying
character per character.
sporadic crashes in multi-thread programs when several long deallocator
chains ran concurrently and involved subclasses of built-in container
types.
Note that the trashcan functions are part of the stable ABI, therefore
they have to be kept around for binary compatibility of extensions.

Because of this change, a couple extension modules compiled for 3.2.4
(those which use the trashcan mechanism, despite it being undocumented)
will not be loadable by 3.2.3 and earlier. However, extension modules
compiled for 3.2.3 and earlier will be loadable by 3.2.4.

PyImport_ImportModuleLevel() with a 'level' of 0 instead of -1 as the
latter is no longer a valid value.
Also added a versionchanged note for PyImport_ImportModuleLevel() just
in case people don't make the connection between changes to
__import__() and this C function.
Fix also its value on Windows and Linux according to its documentation:
"adjustable" indicates if the clock *can be* adjusted, not if it is or was
adjusted.
In most cases, it is not possible to indicate if a clock is or was adjusted.
