Use _PyArg_CheckPositional() and inlined code instead of
PyArg_UnpackTuple() and _PyArg_UnpackStack() if all parameters
are positional and use the "object" converter.
Fix invalid function cast warnings with gcc 8
for method conventions different from METH_NOARGS, METH_O and
METH_VARARGS in Argument Clinic generated code.
This implements getstate and setstate for the cjkcodecs multibyte incremental encoders/decoders, primarily to fix issues with seek/tell.
The encoder getstate/setstate is slightly tricky as the "state" is pending bytes + MultibyteCodec_State but only an integer can be returned. The approach I've taken is to encode this data into a long, similar to how .tell() encodes a "cookie_type" as a long.

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".
Issue #29286. Run Argument Clinic to get the new faster METH_FASTCALL calling
convention for functions using "boring" positional arguments.
Manually fix _elementtree: _elementtree_XMLParser_doctype() must remain
consistent with the clinic code.
