I can't quite untangle all the documents linked from this PR, so let me ask
here :-). Does this mean that python 2.x extension wheels now can and
should declare whether they're assuming the 16- or 32-bit Unicode ABI
inside the abi field? And if so, should PEP 513 be updated to allow for
both options to be used with manylinux1? (Right not manylinux1 just
implies/requires a UCS4 build, for older pythons where this matters.)
