This is incomplete, but I want to get some version into the next alpha. I am still working on:
Documentation.
More tests.
Implement for floats.
In addition, there's an existing bug with 'n' formatting that carries forward to thousands grouping (issue 5515).

Issue #3139: Make buffer-interface thread-safe wrt. PyArg_ParseTuple,
by denying s# to parse objects that have a releasebuffer procedure,
and introducing s*.
More module might need to get converted to use s*.
........
PyUnicode_AsStringAndSize -> _PyUnicode_AsStringAndSize to mark
them for interpreter internal use only.
We'll have to rework these APIs or create new ones for the
purpose of accessing the UTF-8 representation of Unicode objects
for 3.1.
Use faster PyUnicode_FromEncodedObject() for bytes/bytearray.decode().
Add new PyCodec_KnownEncoding() API.
Add new PyUnicode_AsDecodedUnicode() and PyUnicode_AsEncodedUnicode() APIs.
Add missing PyUnicode_AsDecodedObject() to unicodeobject.h
Fix punicode codec to also work on memoryviews.
Before this change, the following example would output:
>>> b = bytearray(b"hello")
>>> b += "world"
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can't concat bytes to bytearray
