[Python-Dev] Procedure for adding new public C API

[Masayuki YAMAMOTO]

Thanks Serhiy, I missed adding PyThread_tss_* to Doc/data/refcounts.dat. I
opened a PR to fix it.

> Please don't forgot to perform the following steps when add a  new public
> C API:
>
> * Document it in Doc/c-api/.
>
> * Add an entry in the What's New document.
>
> * Add it in Doc/data/refcounts.dat.
>
> * Add it in PC/python3.def.
>
> If you want to include it in the limited API, wrap its declaration with:
>
>    #if !defined(Py_LIMITED_API) || Py_LIMITED_API+0 >= 0x03080000
>    #endif
>
> (use the correct Python version of introducing a feature in the comparison)
>
> If you don't want to include it in the limited API, wrap its declaration
> with:
>
>    #ifndef Py_LIMITED_API
>    #endif
>
> You are free of adding private C API, but its name should start with _Py
> or _PY and its declaration should be wrapped with:
>
>    #ifndef Py_LIMITED_API
>    #endif
