  Issue #9036: Throughout the code base, Py_CHARMASK is used on 8-bit wide
  signed/unsigned chars or on integers directly derived from those. In all
  cases, it could be replaced by a simple cast to (unsigned char). Reasons
  for the change:

    a) Make the comment more explicit.

    b) If char is unsigned, the cast is optimized away.

    c) If char is unsigned, gcc emits spurious "array subscript
       has type 'char'" warnings.
