TODO: add a NEWS entry for all these changes.

Copy of Nick Coghlan's comment:

@vstinner For folks consuming source archives (Linux distros, anyone embedding 
Python in a larger application, etc) rather than prebuilt binaries, the build 
process is something that can break, even for Py_BUILD_CORE only changes.

For those folks, when they pull a new source archive, their builds may break, 
especially if they're applying additional downstream patches the way Linux 
distros do.

The NEWS entry for this header file rearrangement should go in the Build 
section (https://github.com/python/cpython/tree/master/Misc/NEWS.d/next/Build) 
rather than the C API section (since these headers aren't part of the public 
API at all), but it should still exist.
