requires building pyctype.o into pgen

(memoryviews don't support complex structures right now)

This should fix the test_py3kwarn failure on OS X.  test_support.import_module
also requires this.

Based on a patch by Meador Inge.

 - rename to _test_structmembersType to avoid the class being automatically
   called by test_capi

 - allow space for trailing NUL in inplace_member field of all_structmembers

 - use T_STRING_INPLACE instead of T_INPLACE_STRING as keyword argument
   to _test_structmembersType initializer

 - don't attempt to initialize inplace_member field if T_STRING_INPLACE
   argument wasn't supplied.
