bpo-45383: Get metaclass from bases in PyType_From* (GH-28748)
This checks the bases of of a type created using the FromSpec
API to inherit the bases metaclasses.  The metaclass's alloc
function will be called as is done in `tp_new` for classes
created in Python.

gh-87961: Remove outdated notes from functions that aren't in the Limited API (GH-93581)
* Remove outdated notes from functions that aren't in the Limited API

Nowadays everything that *is* in the Limited API has a note added
automatically.
These notes could mislead people to think that these functions
could never be added to the limited API. Remove them.

* Also remove forgotten note on tp_vectorcall_offset not being finalized

gh-60074: add new stable API function PyType_FromMetaclass (GH-93012)
Added a new stable API function ``PyType_FromMetaclass``, which mirrors
the behavior of ``PyType_FromModuleAndSpec`` except that it takes an
additional metaclass argument. This is, e.g., useful for language
binding tools that need to store additional information in the type
object.

gh-93202: Always use %zd printf formatter (#93201)
Python now always use the ``%zu`` and ``%zd`` printf formats to
format a size_t or Py_ssize_t number. Building Python 3.12 requires a
C11 compiler, so these printf formats are now always supported.

* PyObject_Print() and _PyObject_Dump() now use the printf %zd format
  to display an object reference count.
* Update PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T comment.
* Remove outdated notes about the %zd format in PyBytes_FromFormat()
  and PyUnicode_FromFormat() documentations.
* configure no longer checks for the %zd format and no longer defines
  PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T macro in pyconfig.h.
* pymacconfig.h no longer undefines PY_FORMAT_SIZE_T: macOS 10.4 is
  no longer supported. Python 3.12 now requires macOS 10.6 (Snow
  Leopard) or newer.

type than PyUnicode_FromKindAndData().

The limited API version 3.11 no longer casts arguments to expected
types.

* Modules/getpath.py sets safe_path to 1 if a "._pth" file is
  present.

bpo-46906: Add PyFloat_Pack8() to the C API (GH-31657)
Add new functions to pack and unpack C double (serialize and
deserialize):

* PyFloat_Pack2(), PyFloat_Pack4(), PyFloat_Pack8()
* PyFloat_Unpack2(), PyFloat_Unpack4(), PyFloat_Unpack8()

Document these functions and add unit tests.

Rename private functions and move them from the internal C API
to the public C API:

* _PyFloat_Pack2() => PyFloat_Pack2()
* _PyFloat_Pack4() => PyFloat_Pack4()
* _PyFloat_Pack8() => PyFloat_Pack8()
* _PyFloat_Unpack2() => PyFloat_Unpack2()
* _PyFloat_Unpack4() => PyFloat_Unpack4()
* _PyFloat_Unpack8() => PyFloat_Unpack8()

Replace the "unsigned char*" type with "char*" which is more common
and easy to use.
