[New-bugs-announce] [issue28771] Update documented signatures of tp_get/setattr

[Martin Panter]

New submission from Martin Panter:

https://docs.python.org/3.7/c-api/typeobj.html#c.PyTypeObject.tp_getattr

tp_getattr and tp_setattr take a non-const char pointer in their signatures, but the documentation points to PyObject_GetAttrString() etc which were changed to take const char pointers a long time ago: revision 2f19b981ac24.

This patch fixes the documentation of those two methods for Python 3. There could be more fixes needed for Python 2.
