Don't call PyErr_NewException() if an exception is set, or type_call() would
fail with an assertion error.

assertion error if they are called with an exception set (PyErr_Occurred()).

As PyEval_EvalFrameEx(), they may clear the current exception and so the caller
looses its exception.

type_call() with an exception set

with an assertion error if they are called with an exception set
(PyErr_Occurred()).

If these functions are called with an exception set, the exception may be
cleared and so the caller looses its exception.

Add also assertions to PyEval_CallObjectWithKeywords() and call_function() to
check if the function succeed with no exception set, or the function failed
with an exception set.

the last call to the step() method of a user function

PyObject_Repr() can removes the current exception. For example, module_repr()
calls PyErr_Clear() if calling loader.module_repr(mod) failed.

_PyDict_GetItemId() is more efficient: it only builds the Unicode string once.
Identifiers (dictionary keys) are now created at Python initialization, and if
the creation failed, Python does exit with a fatal error.

Before, PyDict_GetItemString() failure was not handled: structseq_new() could
call PyObject_GC_NewVar() with a negative size, and structseq_dealloc() could
also crash.

PyList_Append() (called by PyArena_AddPyObject()) can fail because of a
MemoryError for example.

PyObject_IsSubclass() can fail and raise a new exception!

Type "o" format of Py_BuildValue() is invalid: it must be "O".

It was easy to miss the call to type->tp_init because it was done in a long
conditional expression. Split the long expression in multiple lines to make the
debug step by step easier.

and ignores exceptions raised during the call

Pass the MemoryError exception to the caller, instead of using empty keys.

As PyDict_GetItem(), PyDict_GetItemString() suppresses all errors that may
occur for historical reasons.
