- Limited API needs to be enabled per source file
- Some builds don't support Limited API, so Limited API tests must be skipped on those builds
(currently this is `Py_TRACE_REFS`, but that may change.)
- `Py_LIMITED_API` must be defined before `<Python.h>` is included.
This puts the hoop-jumping in `testcapi/parts.h`, so individual
test files can be relatively simple. (Currently that's only
`vectorcall_limited.c`, imagine more.)
When keyword argument name is an instance of a str subclass with
overloaded methods __eq__ and __hash__, the former code could not find
the name of an extraneous keyword argument to report an error, and
_PyArg_UnpackKeywords() returned success without setting the
corresponding cell in the linearized arguments array. But since the number
of expected initialized cells is determined as the total number of passed
arguments, this lead to reading NULL as a keyword parameter value, that
caused SystemError or crash or other undesired behavior.
Heap types with the Py_TPFLAGS_IMMUTABLETYPE flag can now inherit the
PEP 590 vectorcall protocol. Previously, this was only possible for static types.

Additional note: the `method_check_args` function in `Objects/descrobject.c` is written in such a way that it applies to all kinds of descriptors. In particular, a future re-implementation of `wrapper_descriptor` could use that code.

Add functions with various calling conventions to `_testcapi`, expose them as module-level functions, bound methods, class methods, and static methods, and test calling them and introspecting them through GDB.

When dict subclass overrides order (`__iter__()`, `keys()`, and `items()`), `dict(o)`
should use it instead of dict ordering.
https://bugs.python.org/issue34320
The function '_PyArg_ParseStack()' and
'_PyArg_UnpackStack' were failing (with error
"XXX() takes Y argument (Z given)") before
the function '_PyArg_NoStackKeywords()' was called.
Thus, the latter did not raise its more meaningful
error : "XXX() takes no keyword arguments".
I have compared output between pre- and post-patch runs of these tests
to make sure there's nothing missing and nothing broken, on both
Windows and Linux. The only differences I found were actually tests
that were previously *not* run.
Not all code has been fixed yet; this is just a checkpoint...
The C API still has PyDict_HasKey() and _HasKeyString(); not sure
if I want to change those just yet.
(Championed by Bob Ippolito.)
The update() method for mappings now accepts all the same argument forms
as the dict() constructor. This includes item lists and/or keyword
arguments.
and test_support.run_classtests() into run_unittest()
and use it wherever possible.
Also don't use "from test.test_support import ...", but
"from test import test_support" in a few spots.
From SF patch #662807.
imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name
such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support".
This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the
duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by
Lib/email/test/data).
Now Tim and Jack can have at it. :)
