Sam Gross 19f96f99fe gh-148393: Use acquire load for _ma_watcher_tag in dict notify event (gh-148509)
The watcher-bits read in _PyDict_NotifyEvent needs to use acquire to
synchronize with the release from PyDict_Watch so that the callback
publication is visible before the callback is invoked.

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`_
