[issue29045] Outdated C api doc about Windows error
New submission from Xiang Zhang:
https://docs.python.org/3.7/c-api/exceptions.html#c.PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrW... it stills refers to PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilenameObject but this function doesn't exist since Py3.4. I didn't find when and why it's deleted.
And https://docs.python.org/3.4/c-api/exceptions.html#c.PyErr_SetFromWindowsErr raises OSError instead of WindowsError.

Eryk Sun added the comment:
PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilenameObject was never implemented. See issue 11210.
Since 3.3 WindowsError is simply an alias for OSError. See PEP 3151.

Ohh, thanks for the info. I don't find the implementation in 2.7 either.

The documentation still has two references to PyErr_SetFromWindowsErrWithFilenameObject, which is not a defined function in the C API.
