[issue10640] SystemError on pickling bytes >= 4GB

[Hagen Fürstenau]

New submission from Hagen Fürstenau <hagen at zhuliguan.net>:

Pickling a bytes object of length >= 2**32 results in a "SystemError: error return without exception set".

If pickling large bytes objects isn't supported, this should be documented and a helpful exception be raised.
