[issue7018] Recommend "*" over "#" in getargs.c typecodes

[Antoine Pitrou]

Antoine Pitrou <pitrou at free.fr> added the comment:

This only really applies in 2.x, actually. In 3.x, "#" should be
discouraged for another reason: it is overly strict and will only accept
pure read-only objects (which don't have a bf_releasebuffer method);
even bytearrays will be rejected.
