For dlsym(), a return value of NULL does not necessarily indicate
an error [1].
Therefore, to avoid using stale (or NULL) dlerror() values, we must:
1. clear the previous error state by calling dlerror()
2. call dlsym()
3. call dlerror()
If the return value of dlerror() is not NULL, an error occured.
In ctypes we choose to treat a NULL return value from dlsym()
as a "not found" error. This is the same as the fallback
message we use on Windows, Cygwin or when getting/formatting
the error reason fails.

Dictionary watchers on an object's attributes dictionary
(`object.__dict__`) were not triggered when the managed dictionary used
the object's inline values.
Add PyConfig_Get(), PyConfig_GetInt(), PyConfig_Set() and
PyConfig_Names() functions to get and set the current runtime Python
configuration.
Add visibility and "sys spec" to config and preconfig specifications.
_PyConfig_AsDict() now converts PyConfig.xoptions as a dictionary.

Return -1 and set an exception on error; return 0 if the iterator is
exhausted, and return 1 if the next item was fetched successfully.
Prefer this API to PyIter_Next(), which requires the caller to use
PyErr_Occurred() to differentiate between iterator exhaustion and errors.

Fix PyEval_GetLocals() to avoid SystemError ("bad argument to
internal function"). Don't redefine the 'ret' variable in the if
block.
Add an unit test on PyEval_GetLocals().
