The documentation incorrectly stated that numeric group arguments
must be in the range [1..99]. This limit was removed in Python 3.5
(bpo-22437). Replace with "a positive integer" since the next
sentence already documents the IndexError for out-of-range values.
Add TYPE_FROZENDICT to the marshal module.
Add C API functions:
* PyAnyDict_Check()
* PyAnyDict_CheckExact()
* PyFrozenDict_Check()
* PyFrozenDict_CheckExact()
* PyFrozenDict_New()
Add PyFrozenDict_Type C type.

Adds `prefixmatch` APIs to the re module as an alternate name for our long existing `match` APIs to help alleviate a common Python confusion for those coming from other languages regular expression libraries.
These alleviate common confusion around what "match" means as Python is different than other popular languages regex libraries in our use of the term as an API name. The original `match` names are **NOT being deprecated**. Source tooling like linters, IDEs, and LLMs could suggest using `prefixmatch` instead of match to improve code health and reduce cognitive burden of understanding the intent of code when configured for a modern minimum Python version.
See the documentation changes for a better description.
Discussions took place in the PR, in the issue, and finally at https://discuss.python.org/t/add-re-prefixmatch-deprecate-re-match/105927

To avoid duplicate content in the Enum HOWTO and
API documentation which is not automatically synced,
the section about supported __dunder__ and _sunder
names is moved from HOWTO to API docs.
