[issue25026] (FreeBSD/OSX) Fix fcntl module to accept 'unsigned long' type commands for ioctl(2).

Thanks for the insight Serhiy. A few questions ..

Is clinic code updated based on *.c declarations at build time? If not when/how is the best place/method to run this for our ports/package builds?

Does your suggestion to switch unsigned_int to unsigned_long imply that the following lines are no longer necessary?

-    if (PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "O&Iw#|i:ioctl",
+    if (PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "O&kw#|i:ioctl",

How do we get something like this fixed upstream for FreeBSD/OSX?

If left un-patched, what is the impact on the user/system? Just a warning on console?
