Fred Drake 674dae245a Clarify that PyImport_AddModule() and PyImport_ExecCodeModule() don't
add any package support structure even if a dotted-name is passed for
the module.
Closes SF bug #424106.

Tim Peters 7c321a80f9 The Py_REF_DEBUG/COUNT_ALLOCS/Py_TRACE_REFS macro minefield: added
more trivial lexical helper macros so that uses of these guys expand
to nothing at all when they're not enabled.  This should help sub-
standard compilers that can't do a good job of optimizing away the
previous "(void)0" expressions.

Py_DECREF:  There's only one definition of this now.  Yay!  That
was that last one in the family defined multiple times in an #ifdef
maze.

Py_FatalError():  Changed the char* signature to const char*.

_Py_NegativeRefcount():  New helper function for the Py_REF_DEBUG
expansion of Py_DECREF.  Calling an external function cuts down on
the volume of generated code.  The previous inline expansion of abort()
didn't work as intended on Windows (the program often kept going, and
the error msg scrolled off the screen unseen).  _Py_NegativeRefcount
calls Py_FatalError instead, which captures our best knowledge of
how to abort effectively across platforms.

Fred Drake 68304ccce3 Move reference material on PyArg_Parse*() out of the Extending & Embedding
document to the C API reference.  Move some instructional text from the API
reference to the Extending & Embedding manual.

Fix the descriptions of the es and es# formats for PyArg_Parse*().
This closes SF bug #536516.

Fred Drake 3adf79e3e2 Break the Python/C API manual into smaller files by chapter. This manual
has grown beyond what font-lock will work with using the default (X)Emacs
settings.

Indentation of the description has been made consistent, and a number of
smaller markup adjustments have been made as well.
