[issue8215] getargs.c in Python3 contains some TODO and the documentation is outdated

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <victor.stinner at haypocalc.com> added the comment:

The PEP 3118 describes some points about discontigious buffers, but there is no module nor third party libraries supporting them.

PIL 1.1.7 (the last version) doesn't support the buffer API (an image can not be "exported" as a buffer, but PIL accepts a buffer as input in some functions).
