[issue35438] Extension modules using non-API functions

[Eddie Elizondo]

@vstinner: Sorry for not being clear - The intention of this change is two-fold:
1) Simplify the implementation of these functions.
2) Reduce the surface area of the C-API.

Given that the same functionality can be achieved with public functions of the C-API. This is a nice cleanup over the current approach.
