There are newly documented restrictions on tp_traverse:
The traversal function must not have any side effects.
It must not modify the reference counts of any Python
objects nor create or destroy any Python objects.
* Add several functions that are guaranteed side-effect-free,
with a _DuringGC suffix.
* Use these in ctypes
* Consolidate tp_traverse docs in gcsupport.rst, moving unique
content from typeobj.rst there

* Make Py_{SIZE,IS_TYPE,SET_SIZE} regular functions in stable ABI
Group them together with Py_TYPE & Py_SET_TYPE to cut down
on repetitive preprocessor macros.
Format repetitive definitions in object.c more concisely.
Py_SET_TYPE is still left out of the Limited API.
Return -1 and set an exception on error; return 0 if the iterator is
exhausted, and return 1 if the next item was fetched successfully.
Prefer this API to PyIter_Next(), which requires the caller to use
PyErr_Occurred() to differentiate between iterator exhaustion and errors.

Add Py_GetConstant() and Py_GetConstantBorrowed() functions.
In the limited C API version 3.13, getting Py_None, Py_False,
Py_True, Py_Ellipsis and Py_NotImplemented singletons is now
implemented as function calls at the stable ABI level to hide
implementation details. Getting these constants still return borrowed
references.
Add _testlimitedcapi/object.c and test_capi/test_object.py to test
Py_GetConstant() and Py_GetConstantBorrowed() functions.
The new `PyList_GetItemRef` is similar to `PyList_GetItem`, but returns
a strong reference instead of a borrowed reference. Additionally, if the
passed "list" object is not a list, the function sets a `TypeError`
instead of calling `PyErr_BadInternalCall()`.

This reverts commit 37e4e20eaa.
Add PyUnicode_AsUTF8() function to the limited C API.
multiprocessing posixshmem now uses PyUnicode_AsUTF8() instead of
PyUnicode_AsUTF8AndSize(): the extension is built with the limited C
API. The function now raises an exception if the filename contains an
embedded null character instead of truncating silently the filename.
The PySys_Audit() function was added in Python 3.8 by the PEP 578
"Python Runtime Audit Hooks".
Add also PySys_AuditTuple() to the limited C API, function added
to Python 3.13.
Move non-limited "PerfMap" C API from Include/sysmodule.h to
Include/cpython/sysmodule.h.
Add PyMem_RawMalloc(), PyMem_RawCalloc(), PyMem_RawRealloc() and
PyMem_RawFree() to the limited C API.
These functions were added by Python 3.4 and are needed to port
stdlib extensions to the limited C API, like grp and pwd.

If the timeout is greater than PY_TIMEOUT_MAX,
PyThread_acquire_lock_timed() uses a timeout of PY_TIMEOUT_MAX
microseconds, which is around 280.6 years. This case is unlikely and
limiting a timeout to 280.6 years sounds like a reasonable trade-off.
The constant PY_TIMEOUT_MAX is not used in PyPI top 5,000 projects.
* pycore_pythread.h is now the central place to make sure that
_POSIX_THREADS and _POSIX_SEMAPHORES macros are defined if
available.
* Make sure that pycore_pythread.h is included when _POSIX_THREADS
and _POSIX_SEMAPHORES macros are tested.
* PY_TIMEOUT_MAX is now defined as a constant, since its value
depends on _POSIX_THREADS, instead of being defined as a macro.
* Prevent integer overflow in the preprocessor when computing
PY_TIMEOUT_MAX_VALUE on Windows:
replace "0xFFFFFFFELL * 1000 < LLONG_MAX"
with "0xFFFFFFFELL < LLONG_MAX / 1000".
* Document the change and give hints how to fix affected code.
* Add an exception for PY_TIMEOUT_MAX name to smelly.py
* Add PY_TIMEOUT_MAX to the stable ABI
* Add PyDict_GetItemRef() and PyDict_GetItemStringRef() functions.
Add these functions to the stable ABI version 3.13.
* Add unit tests on the PyDict C API in test_capi.
* Convert PyObject_DelAttr() and PyObject_DelAttrString() macros to
functions.
* Add PyObject_DelAttr() and PyObject_DelAttrString() functions to
the stable ABI.
* Replace PyObject_SetAttr(obj, name, NULL) with
PyObject_DelAttr(obj, name).
* Add tests on PyImport_AddModuleRef(), PyImport_AddModule() and
PyImport_AddModuleObject().
* pythonrun.c: Replace Py_XNewRef(PyImport_AddModule(name)) with
PyImport_AddModuleRef(name).
When Python is built in debug mode (if the Py_REF_DEBUG macro is
defined), the Py_INCREF() and Py_DECREF() function are now always
implemented as opaque functions to avoid leaking implementation
details like the "_Py_RefTotal" variable or the
_Py_DecRefTotal_DO_NOT_USE_THIS() function.
* Remove _Py_IncRefTotal_DO_NOT_USE_THIS() and
_Py_DecRefTotal_DO_NOT_USE_THIS() from the stable ABI.
* Remove _Py_NegativeRefcount() from limited C API.
