My views on individual slots:
Not a function, shouldn't be used with PyType_Slot:
* tp_dict - I'd add a PyType_GetDict if there is a need to get this
* tp_mro - I'd add a PyType_GetMRO if there is a need to get this
(There are existing slots that aren't functions; I'd like to deprecate them in the long term.)
internal use only, do not expose:
* tp_cache
* tp_subclasses
* tp_weaklist
* tp_as_*
Not part of limited API, do not expose:
* tp_vectorcall
Can be exposed if we deem all of the related API stable:
* bf_getbuffer
* bf_releasebuffer
