[New-bugs-announce] [issue29916] No explicit documentation for PyGetSetDef and getter and setter C-API

[Michael Seifert]

New submission from Michael Seifert:

A copy of the struct definition can be found in the typeobject documentation [1]. There is also some explanation of the "closure" function pointer in the extending tutorial [2].

However the struct isn't explicitly defined as "c:type" so the 6 links to it in the documentations go nowhere.

I also submitted a pull request.
