Summary: Py_BuildValue (C/API): "K" format

Initial Comment:
In section
"5.5 Parsing arguments and building values"
at the C/API documentation.
At the description of Py_BuildValue's format strings,
the "K" format char is not mentioned, though it is
implemented.

Here's a possible text to add:

"K" (integer) [unsigned PY_LONG_LONG]
    Convert a C unsigned long long to a python int object.

and maybe add a
    (New in version 2.3)
I don't know if it's new from 2.3 or something. I know
that for PyArg_ParseTuple it says that for "K"

Before I found that "K" is implemented out I used the
"N" format and PyLong_FromLongLong, which is far less
elegant :)

Thanks,
Yair.
