[New-bugs-announce] [issue33829] C API: provide new object protocol helper

[Bartosz Gołaszewski]

New submission from Bartosz Gołaszewski <bartekgola at gmail.com>:

If we want to call an object's method from C code and pass it the args and kwargs tuples unchanged, we need to first retrieve the callable object using PyObject_GetAttrString(), then call it using PyObject_Call().

I would like to propose wrapping the two calls in a new helper.
