Rename struct.unpack() 2nd parameter to "buffer"
Issue #29300: Rename struct.unpack() second parameter from "inputstr" to
"buffer", and use the Py_buffer type.
Fix also unit tests on struct.unpack() which passed a Unicode string instead of
a bytes string as struct.unpack() second parameter. The purpose of
test_trailing_counter() is to test invalid format strings, not to test the
buffer parameter.

Issue #29300: Convert _struct module to Argument Clinic
* The struct module now requires contiguous buffers.
* Convert most functions and methods of the _struct module to Argument Clinic
* Use "Py_buffer" type for the "buffer" argument. Argument Clinic is
responsible to create and release the Py_buffer object.
* Use "PyStructObject *" type for self to avoid explicit conversions.
* Add an unit test on the _struct.Struct.unpack_from() method to test passing
arguments as keywords.
* Rephrase docstrings.
* Rename "fmt" argument to "format" in docstrings and the documentation.
As a side effect, functions and methods which used METH_VARARGS calling
convention like struct.pack() now use the METH_FASTCALL calling convention
which avoids the creation of temporary tuple to pass positional arguments and
so is faster. For example, struct.pack("i", 1) becomes 1.56x faster (-36%)::
Issue #29368: The extend() method is now called instead of the append()
method when unpickle collections.deque and other list-like objects.
This can speed up unpickling to 2 times.

Issue #29383: reduce temporary interned unicode
add_methods(), add_members(), and add_getset() used PyDict_SetItemString()
to register descriptor to the type's dict.
So descr_new() and PyDict_SetItemString() creates interned unicode from same
C string.
This patch takes interned unicode from descriptor, and use PyDict_SetItem()
instead of PyDict_SetItemString().
