bpo-37540: vectorcall: keyword names must be strings (GH-14682)



The fact that keyword names are strings is now part of the vectorcall and `METH_FASTCALL` protocols. The biggest concrete change is that `_PyStack_UnpackDict` now checks that and raises `TypeError` if not.

    Keyword arguments are passed the same way as in the vectorcall protocol:
    there is an additional fourth :c:type:`PyObject\*` parameter
    which is a tuple representing the names of the keyword arguments
+   (which are guaranteed to be strings)
    or possibly *NULL* if there are no keywords.  The values of the keyword
    arguments are stored in the *args* array, after the positional arguments.
