Uniformize argument names of "call" functions
Issue #28838: Rename parameters of the "calls" functions of the Python C API. * Rename 'callable_object' and 'func' to 'callable': any Python callable object is accepted, not only Python functions * Rename 'method' and 'nameid' to 'name' (method name) * Rename 'o' to 'obj' * Move, fix and update documentation of PyObject_CallXXX() functions in abstract.h * Update also the documentaton of the C API (update parameter names)
