A large contribution from Dave Kuhlman describing what each of the slots
...
in the type object is used for, for many of the more commonly used slots.
Thanks!
(But there is still a lot more to write on this topic.)
Markup and organizational changes by your friendly neighborhood
documentation czar.

Lots of new text and example code on embedding Python in C, contributed
...
by Albert Hofkamp. Some editing has been done for style and markup
consistency.
This also supplies an example of importing modules and calling a function
defined in the module, so this closes SF bug #440037 as well.
(The long example code was moved to a separate file so that it would
format properly.)

Fix up a few style nits -- avoid "e.g." and "i.e." -- these make
...
translation more difficult, as well as reading the English more
difficult for non-native speakers.

Added new parser markers 'et' and 'et#' which do not recode string
...
objects but instead assume that they use the requested encoding.
This is needed on Windows to enable opening files by passing in
Unicode file names.

Markup nit: For the Python documents, we use \empt instead of \textit.

There was a real leak in the "export a C API" example; fix that one.

(There are too many initspam() functions; they need to be renamed
post-beta.)

There is no longer a -X option to the interpreter, so remove the comments
...
on how PyErr_NewException() behaves in that case.
Clarify why an owned reference is kept in an extension module's
variable that refers to the result of PyErr_NewException(); one reader
thought that was a leak.
Clean up some tabs and simplify some markup.

Special case the "s#" PyArg_Parse() token for Unicode objects:
...
"s#" will now return a pointer to the default encoded string data
of the Unicode object instead of a pointer to the raw UTF-16
data.
The latter is still available via PyObject_AsReadBuffer().
