// Cast an function to the PyCFunction type to use it with PyMethodDef.

// This macro can be used to prevent compiler warnings if the first parameter
// uses a different pointer type than PyObject* (ex: METH_VARARGS and METH_O
// calling conventions).
//
// The macro can also be used for METH_FASTCALL and METH_VARARGS|METH_KEYWORDS
// calling conventions to avoid compiler warnings because the function has more
// than 2 parameters. The macro first casts the function to the
// "void func(void)" type to prevent compiler warnings.
//
// If a function is declared with the METH_NOARGS calling convention, it must
// have 2 parameters. Since the second parameter is unused, Py_UNUSED() can be
// used to prevent a compiler warning. If the function has a single parameter,
// it triggers an undefined behavior when Python calls it with 2 parameters
// (bpo-33012).
