[New-bugs-announce] [issue46962] Fix docstrings that do not honor --without-doc-strings

[Oleg Iarygin]

New submission from Oleg Iarygin <oleg at arhadthedev.net>:

To support `--without-doc-strings`, all docstrings must be wrapped into `PyDoc_STRVAR` or `PyDoc_STR` (PEP 7). However, there are 18 occurrences in code and 10 in C API documentation that do not follow this rule. The documentation is important too because it should not teach people the wrong things.

To find the occurrences I searched for `(?:^\s*.tp_doc = "|" \/\* tp_doc \*\/$)` and`^(?:static\s+)?const\s+char\s+[^=]+=\s*"`.
