I had two reasons to change PyCode_CheckLineNumber to
_PyCode_CheckLineNumber: First, its behavior is changing without its
signature changing. Without a name change, that could break users
silently (if there are any codesearch missed). Second, I think it's an
internal function which we should feel free to change again if it makes
the implementation cleaner. In order to let people change it at will, it
should start with "_Py".
