Lists of "negative" length are also empty, and that's the case we special-case later in an inline function, so use the same condition for consistency and easy C compiler optimisation.

Some code I have uses lxml. When I compile and run lxml with LLVM-12's undefined behaviour sanitizer, I see this:
```
lxml/4.6.3/cython_parts=etree.c/etree.c:191228:65: runtime error: applying zero offset to null pointer
    #0 0x7faedc799e7c in __Pyx_PyList_GetSlice lxml/4.6.3/cython_parts=etree.c/etree.c:191228

```
which implies that Cython's generating undefined behaviour.

Making an early exit from the modified function (essentially by hoisting an early exit from one level lower in the stack) avoids this.

CI: Use same capital case package name spelling as other dependencies do. Seems like pip can get confused about this (maybe just temporarily).

This is used by some optimisations for builtins that call C-API functions directly but need to convert None arguments to NULL or special integer values in order to mimic the original Python interface.

Also add and backport the CPython macros for None checks (and True/False, while we're at it):

Fixes a bug introduced by https://github.com/cython/cython/commit/ae4ade8daeae206db68583f2f4b9c1cbce9cba75 for PyPy.

PR 4703 was an incomplete backport of the changes needed for #3554 and generates incorrect C code.

This reverts commit d395a56f.

Use "\x20" instead of a plain space at the end of a doctest output line to make it easier to edit. Some editors strip off trailing whitespace.

It causes issues while profiling or debugging where global variables can end up inadvertently changed.

The condition should only evaluate to True when assigning __dict__, but it currently does for _, d, i, etc. as well as resulting in the following potential issues:

* Non-member are being assigned to the object instead of raising.
* The one-field rule can be bypassed.
* Valid members that pass the condition are being assigned raw and are never cast to the specified type.

The presence of this generic special method should not prevent Cython from making a class pickleable.

Disable "CYTHON_UPDATE_DESCRIPTOR_DOC" for Pyston. It was previously only enabled for CPython and should only have been enabled additionally for recent PyPy versions.

Stop using "PyBytesObject.ob_shash" in Py3.11, where it is deprecated. It was just an optimisation that isn't very important for byte strings any more.

Closes https://github.com/cython/cython/issues/4721

Add exception handling for `libcpp::stack::push`

Since cimporting directly from "cpython" has long been deprecated.

e.g. https://github.com/cython/cython/issues/4707

Acquire the GIL in nogil functions only when strictly needed on function exit, e.g. for cleaning up temp variables from with-gil blocks or adding tracebacks.
