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 Python C API ================ The C API is divided into these sections: 1. ``Include/``: Limited API 2. ``Include/cpython/``: CPython implementation details 3. ``Include/cpython/``, names with the ``PyUnstable_`` prefix: API that can change between minor releases 4. ``Include/internal/``, and any name with ``_`` prefix: The internal API Information on changing the C API is available `in the developer guide`_ .. _in the developer guide: https://devguide.python.org/c-api/
