Document behaviour of single-phase init. Call it "legacy". Reorganize PyModule docs. Move PyInit_modulename docs from the tutorial to reference documentation. Move PyMODINIT_FUNC docs from generic macros to the new page. Add doc stubs for `PYTHON_API_VERSION` & `PYTHON_ABI_VERSION` Remove incorrect refcounts.dat entry for `PyModuleDef_Init`. This removes the "Return value: Borrowed reference." note. Instead, note that the function sometimes returns a borrowed reference, sometimes as strong one. (IMO, it's best to not think of `PyModuleDef` as a `PyObject` at all, and act like it can't be reference-counted.)

This manual documents the API used by C and C++ programmers who want to write
|
|
extension modules or embed Python. It is a companion to :ref:`extending-index`,
|
|
which describes the general principles of extension writing but does not
|
|
document the API functions in detail.
