Summary: Python object refcount accessors

Initial Comment:
It could be useful for more generic clients of the Python 
core to not have to worry about the actual layout of 
Py_ObjectHEAD and other things. So I propose to add 
the two additional functions:

int PyObject_IncRef(PyObject *ob)
int PyObject_DecRef(PyObject *ob)

Those functions could also be added to the Python 2.2 if 
any bug fix might be pending for it.

What's your objection to the existing Py_INCREF() and 
Py_DECREF()?  Or didn't you know about them?
