[issue19358] Integrate "Argument Clinic" into CPython build

Does it really need to be automated? We may only regenerate clinic things after a fresh configure (uncompress tarball, rnu configure, make). Or explicitly using a special command, ex: "make clinic" (which would only regenerate clinic things).

(I didn't check how clinic works, so I'm maybe saying something stupid.)
