bpo-32388: Remove cross-version binary compatibility requirement in tp_flags (GH-4944)

It is now allowed to add new fields at the end of the PyTypeObject struct without having to allocate a dedicated compatibility flag in tp_flags.

This will reduce the risk of running out of bits in the 32-bit tp_flags value.

introducing new functionality between major revisions (to avoid mid-version
changes in the PYTHON_API_VERSION).
These flags are used to change expected features and behavior for a
particular type.
Arbitration of the flag bit positions will need to be coordinated among
