gh-135755: Document __future__.* and CO_* as proper Sphinx objects (GH-135980)

* Turn the __future__ table to list-table.
  This'll make it easier to add entries that need longer markup
* Semantic markup for __future__ feature descriptions.
* Document CO_* C macros.

Code Object Flags
-----------------
Code objects contain a bit-field of flags, which can be retrieved as the
:attr:`~codeobject.co_flags` Python attribute (for example using
:c:func:`PyObject_GetAttrString`), and set using a *flags* argument to
:c:func:`PyUnstable_Code_New` and similar functions.
Flags whose names start with ``CO_FUTURE_`` correspond to features normally
selectable by :ref:`future statements <future>`. These flags can be used in
:c:member:`PyCompilerFlags.cf_flags`.
Note that many ``CO_FUTURE_`` flags are mandatory in current versions of
Python, and setting them has no effect.
The following flags are available.
For their meaning, see the linked documentation of their Python equivalents.

.. c:var:: int CO_FUTURE_DIVISION
This bit can be set in *flags* to cause division operator ``/`` to be
interpreted as "true division" according to :pep:`238`.
The "``PyCF``" flags above can be combined with "``CO_FUTURE``" flags such
as :c:macro:`CO_FUTURE_ANNOTATIONS` to enable features normally
selectable using :ref:`future statements <future>`.
See :ref:`c_codeobject_flags` for a complete list.
