[issue27961] remove support for platforms without "long long"

STINNER Victor added the comment:

Python/pytime.c of Python 3.5 requires a 64-bit integer type and Py_LONG_LONG. Nobody complains, so I'm in favor of dropping all these annoying HAVE_LONG_LONG and just use directly Py_LONG_LONG. It should simplify the code at lot!

By the way, it would be cool to get intmax_t and uintmax_t types in Python (C code). These types are more convenient than having to play with #ifdef or if (value < ..._MAX).
