// We restrict ourselves to the limited API, so that a single build can be
// ABI-compatible with a wide range of Python versions.
//
// The build system will define Py_LIMITED_API as appropriate (see BUILD). We
// only want to define it for our distribution packages, since we can do some
// extra assertions when Py_LIMITED_API is not defined.  Also Py_LIMITED_API is
// incompatible with Py_DEBUG.

// Ideally we could restrict ourselves to the limited API of 3.7, but this is
// a very important function that was not officially added to the limited API
// until 3.10.  Without this function, there is no way of getting data from a
// Python `str` object without a copy.
//
// While this function was not *officially* added to the limited API until
// Python 3.10, In practice it has been stable since Python 3.1.
//   https://bugs.python.org/issue41784
//
// On Linux/ELF and macOS/Mach-O, we can get away with using this function with
// the limited API prior to 3.10.
