gh-82062: Fix support of parameter defaults on methods in extension modules (GH-115270)
Now inspect.signature() supports references to the module globals in
parameter defaults on methods in extension modules.  Previously it was
only supported in functions.  The workaround was to specify the fully
qualified name, including the module name.

README.txt

Tests in this directory are compiled into the _testcapi extension.
The main file for the extension is Modules/_testcapimodule.c, which
calls `_PyTestCapi_Init_*` from these functions.

General guideline when writing test code for C API.
* Use Argument Clinic to minimise the amount of boilerplate code.
* Add a newline between the argument spec and the docstring.
* If a test description is needed, make sure the added docstring clearly and succinctly describes purpose of the function.
* DRY, use the clone feature of Argument Clinic.
* Try to avoid adding new interned strings; reuse existing parameter names if possible. Use the `as` feature of Argument Clinic to override the C variable name, if needed.
