gh-136769: Include fixed-width integers in the fundamental data types table (#136784)

Fixed-sized types, like ``c_int32``, are currently missing from the fundamental data types table
in the ``ctypes`` documentation. This commit adds them, and  notes that ``c_[u]int8`` is an alias
of ``c_[u]byte``.
