Removed the API to create unbound methods and simplified the API for bound methods. The signature is PyMethod_New(func, instance).
Also removed im_class and renamed im_self to __self__ and im_func to __func__. im_class can be substituted with method.__self__.__class__.
I've also updated some parts of the documenation.

- Renamed structmember.h WRITE_RESTRICTED to PY_WRITE_RESTRICTED to work
around a name clash with VS 2008 on Windows.
+- Unbound methods are gone for good. ClassObject.method returns an ordinary
+ function object, instance.method still returns a bound method object.
+ The API of bound methods is cleaned up, too. The im_class attribute is
+ removed and im_func + im_self are renamed to __func__ and __self__. The
+ factory PyMethod_New takes only func and instance as argument.
