bpo-40204, doc: Fix syntax of C variables (GH-21846)
For example, fix the following Sphinx 3 errors:

Doc/c-api/buffer.rst:102: WARNING: Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name. [error at 5]
  void \*obj
  -----^

Doc/c-api/arg.rst:130: WARNING: Unparseable C cross-reference: 'PyObject*'
Invalid C declaration: Expected end of definition. [error at 8]
  PyObject*
  --------^

The modified documentation is compatible with Sphinx 2 and Sphinx 3.

Larry Hastings 2a727916c5 Issue #20226: Major improvements to Argument Clinic.
* You may now specify an expression as the default value for a
  parameter!  Example: "sys.maxsize - 1".  This support is
  intentionally quite limited; you may only use values that
  can be represented as static C values.
* Removed "doc_default", simplified support for "c_default"
  and "py_default".  (I'm not sure we still even need
  "py_default", but I'm leaving it in for now in case a
  use presents itself.)
* Parameter lines support a trailing '\\' as a line
  continuation character, allowing you to break up long lines.
* The argument parsing code generated when supporting optional
  groups now uses PyTuple_GET_SIZE instead of PyTuple_GetSize,
  leading to a 850% speedup in parsing.  (Just kidding, this
  is an unmeasurable difference.)
* A bugfix for the recent regression where the generated
  prototype from pydoc for builtins would be littered with
  unreadable "=<object ...>"" default values for parameters
  that had no default value.
* Converted some asserts into proper failure messages.
* Many doc improvements and fixes.

Larry Hastings 83a9f48699 Issue #14328: Add keyword-only parameters to PyArg_ParseTupleAndKeywords.
They're optional-only for now (unlike in pure Python) but that's all
I needed.  The syntax can easily be relaxed if we want to support
required keyword-only arguments for extension types in the future.

Eli Bendersky 906b88fb2a Issue #12380: PyArg_ParseTuple now accepts a bytearray for the 'c' format.
As a side effect, this now allows the rjust, ljust and center methods of
bytes and bytearray to accept a bytearray argument.
