Python.h now also includes <string.h> in the limited C API version 3.11
and newer to fix the Py_CLEAR() macro which uses memcpy().
Add a Py_CLEAR() test in test_cext.
Modify also _Py_TYPEOF to use C23 typeof() if available.
When integrating slots-based module creation is with the inittab,
which currently requires PyModuleDef, it would be convenient to
reuse the the same slots array for the MethodDef.
Allow slots that match what's already present in the PyModuleDef.
- Group the macros
- Roughly order them to put the most important ones first
- Add expansions where it makes sense; especially if there's
an equivalent in modern C or a common compiler

These had a docs-only deprecation notice since the first version of the docs in this repo. Nowadays we call things “soft deprecated” if there's just a note in the docs.
The deprecated directive needs a version, I went with the first one that had the notice (2.0; it's not in 1.6):
- https://docs.python.org/release/2.0/api/memoryInterface.html
- https://docs.python.org/release/1.6/api/memoryInterface.html
Since PEP 445, they are now direct aliases; there are no (additional) binary compatibility concerns over the preferred names.
gh-141004: Document old provisional names for vectorcall & code API
For vectorcall API, the underscore-prefixed provisional names
continue to be available per PEP 590:
https://peps.python.org/pep-0590/#finalizing-the-api
Use `versionadded`, `versionchanged`, and `:no-typesetting:`
to mark this up.
For PyCode API, use `:no-typesetting:` rather than `index::` so that
these are semantically documented as C functions.
* gh-140550: PEP 793 reference documentation
Since the PEP calls for soft-deprecation of the existing initialization
function, this reorganizes the relevant docs to put the new way of
doing things first, and de-emphasize the old.
Some bits, like the tutorial, are left out of this patch. (See the
issue for a list.)
* Promote _PyObject_Dump() as a public function.
* Keep _PyObject_Dump() alias to PyUnstable_Object_Dump()
for backward compatibility.
* Replace _PyObject_Dump() with PyUnstable_Object_Dump().
