[docs] Mention how to get/set a bigint PyLong via the C API (GH-101270)
We don't need direct C APIs to get at a bigint representation of PyLong but we
do want the few people who need to understand how.

gh-99249: Clarify "read-only" slots tp_bases & tp_mro (GH-99342)
These slots are marked "should be treated as read-only" in the
table at the start of the document.  That doesn't say anything about
setting them in the static struct.

`tp_bases` docs did say that it should be ``NULL`` (TIL!). If you
ignore that, seemingly nothing bad happens. However, some slots
may not be inherited, depending on which sub-slot structs are present.
(FWIW, NumPy sets tp_bases and is affected by the quirk -- though to
be fair, its DUAL_INHERIT code probably predates tp_bases docs, and
also the result happens to be benign.)

This patch makes things explicit.
It also makes the summary table legend easier to scan.

gh-96746: Docs: Clear up Py_TPFLAGS_DISALLOW_INSTANTIATION inheritance (GH-99002)

The flag is not inherited, but its effect -- a NULL tp_new -- is.

Drop hints for people who come here wanting to “disallow instantiation”.

Fix types in buffer/memoryview docs (GH-98118)
The definition of obj in the `Py_buffer` struct is as a PyObject*
ec091bd47e/Include/pybuffer.hGH-L22

PyMemoryView_GET_BASE returns `.obj` - thus its return type
should be a PyObject* (or at least a void*). It definitely
doesn't return `Py_buffer`
