[New-bugs-announce] [issue13341] Incorrect documentation for "u" PyArg_Parse format unit

[Ilya Novoselov]

New submission from Ilya Novoselov <ilya.novoselov at gmail.com>:

Documentation states that u format unit returns "buffer of 16-bit Unicode (UTF-16) data" while it returns pointer to internal buffer of unicode data, which is either UCS-16 or UCS-32
