This commit rewrites the docstring for int() to incorporate the documentation
changes made in issue #16036. It also switches the docstrings for int(),
str(), range(), and slice() to use multi-line signatures.
* Formatting string, int, float and complex use the _PyUnicodeWriter API. It
avoids a temporary buffer in most cases.
* Add _PyUnicodeWriter_WriteStr() to restore the PyAccu optimization: just
keep a reference to the string if the output is only composed of one string
* Disable overallocation when formatting the last argument of str%args and
str.format(args)
* Overallocation allocates at least 100 characters: add min_length attribute
to the _PyUnicodeWriter structure
* Add new private functions: _PyUnicode_FastCopyCharacters(),
_PyUnicode_FastFill() and _PyUnicode_FromASCII()
The speed up is around 20% in average.
PyLong_AsDouble() and PyLong_AsUnsignedLongLong() now raise TypeError (rather
than SystemError) when passed a non-integer argument, matching the behavior of
all the other PyLong_As*() functions.
types. Added a new API function, PyUnicode_TransformDecimalToASCII(),
which transforms non-ASCII decimal digits in a Unicode string to their
ASCII equivalents.
(instances of int, float, complex, decimal.Decimal and
fractions.Fraction) that makes it easy to maintain the invariant that
hash(x) == hash(y) whenever x and y have equal value.

Issue #8259: Get rid of 'outrageous left shift count' error when
left-shifting an integer by more than 2**31 on a 64-bit machine. Also
convert shift counts to a Py_ssize_t instead of a C long.

Issue #8014: Fix PyLong_As<c-integer-type> methods not to produce an
internal error on non-integer input: they now raise TypeError instead.
This is needed for attributes declared via PyMemberDefs.
