a macro if Py_LIMITED_API is not set or set to the value between 0x03050400
and 0x03060000 (not including) or 0x03060100 or higher. Added functions
PySlice_Unpack() and PySlice_AdjustIndices().
PyArg_VaParse() and PyArg_VaParseTupleAndKeywords() were not available in
limited API. PyArg_ValidateKeywordArguments(), PyArg_UnpackTuple() and
Py_BuildValue() were not available in limited API of version < 3.3 when
PY_SSIZE_T_CLEAN is defined.

It got messed up when I merged my private 3.5.3 release
changes with new work happening in the 3.5 main branch.
(3.5 main branch was in "3.5.3rc1", my branch was "3.5.3+",
and Mercurial helpfully merged the two in a kind of nonsense way.)
Issue #29259, #29263. methoddescr_call() creates a PyCFunction object, call it
and the destroy it. Add a new _PyMethodDef_RawFastCallDict() method to avoid
the temporary PyCFunction object.
Issue #29234: Inlining _PyStack_AsTuple() into callers increases their stack
consumption, Disable inlining to optimize the stack consumption.
Add _Py_NO_INLINE: use __attribute__((noinline)) of GCC and Clang.
It reduces the stack consumption, bytes per call, before => after:
test_python_call: 1040 => 976 (-64 B)
test_python_getitem: 976 => 912 (-64 B)
test_python_iterator: 1120 => 1056 (-64 B)
=> total: 3136 => 2944 (- 192 B)
Issue #29233: Replace the inefficient _PyObject_VaCallFunctionObjArgs() with
_PyObject_FastCall() in call_method() and call_maybe().
Only a few functions call call_method() and call it with a fixed number of
arguments. Avoid the complex and expensive _PyObject_VaCallFunctionObjArgs()
function, replace it with an array allocated on the stack with the exact number
of argumlents.
It reduces the stack consumption, bytes per call, before => after:
test_python_call: 1168 => 1152 (-16 B)
test_python_getitem: 1344 => 1008 (-336 B)
test_python_iterator: 1568 => 1232 (-336 B)
Remove the _PyObject_VaCallFunctionObjArgs() function which became useless.
Rename it to object_vacall() and make it private.
Issue #28838: The documentation is of the Python C API is more complete and
more up to date than this old comment.
Removal suggested by Antoine Pitrou.
Issue #28870: Add a new _PY_FASTCALL_SMALL_STACK constant, size of "small
stacks" allocated on the C stack to pass positional arguments to
_PyObject_FastCall().
_PyObject_Call_Prepend() now uses a small stack of 5 arguments (40 bytes)
instead of 8 (64 bytes), since it is modified to use _PY_FASTCALL_SMALL_STACK.
Rewrite all comments to use the same style than other Python header files:
comment functions *before* their declaration, no newline between the comment
and the declaration.
Reformat some comments, add newlines, to make them easier to read.
Quote argument like 'arg' to mention an argument in a comment.
