Summary: new patch for fixing skipitem() in getargs.c

Initial Comment:
This patch subsumes #985713 and #853890.

In Python/getargs.c, the function skipitem() has not
been updated with new argument format codes, such as u,
u#, w, w# etc. This is corrected with this patch.

There are two possibilities: either all new codes are
added to the switch statement (this is the file
getargs-skipitem-diff), or the function is rewritten so
that there is no need for a switch (because the pointer
type for va_arg is irrelevant). That solution is in the
file new_skipitem.c.

Remaining issue: I don't know if the '(...)' formatting
code should be handled here.

I used a hybrid solution now. The checking for invalid
characters remains, but the type argument is irrelevant.

Python/getargs.c r2.107 and r2.102.2.4.
