[issue17223] Initializing array.array with unicode type code and buffer segfaults

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor added the comment:

"It was discussed to add new formats for UCS1, UCS2 and UCS4 formats to the array module, but nobody implemented the idea. The "u" format is kept unchanged (use Py_UNICODE / wchar_t) for backward compatibility with Python 3.2."

See also issue #13072 for this discussion.
