* Add math.isqrt function computing the integer square root.
* Code cleanup: remove redundant comments, rename some variables.
* Tighten up code a bit more; use Py_XDECREF to simplify error handling.
* Update Modules/mathmodule.c

* Add proof sketch
* Updates from review.
* Correct and expand documentation.
* Fix bad reference handling on error; make some variables block-local; other tidying.
* Style and consistency fixes.
* Add missing error check; don't try to DECREF a NULL a
* Simplify some error returns.
* Another two test cases:
- clarify that floats are rejected even if they happen to be
squares of small integers
- TypeError beats ValueError for a negative float
* Documentation and markup improvements; thanks Serhiy for the suggestions!
* Cleaner Misc/NEWS entry wording.
* Clean up (with one fix) to the algorithm explanation and proof.
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.
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".
