Move creation of a tuple for var-positional parameter out of
_PyArg_UnpackKeywordsWithVararg().
Merge _PyArg_UnpackKeywordsWithVararg() with _PyArg_UnpackKeywords().
Add a new parameter in _PyArg_UnpackKeywords().
The "parameters" and "converters" attributes of ParseArgsCodeGen no
longer contain the var-positional parameter. It is now available as the
"varpos" attribute. Optimize code generation for var-positional
parameter and reuse the same generating code for functions with and without
keyword parameters.
Add special converters for var-positional parameter. "tuple" represents it as
a Python tuple and "array" represents it as a continuous array of PyObject*.
"object" is a temporary alias of "tuple".
Like #28744 but for the Tools directory.

The original tool wasn't working right and it was simpler to create a new one, partially re-using some of the old code. At this point the tool runs properly on the master. (Try: ./python Tools/c-analyzer/c-analyzer.py analyze.) It take ~40 seconds on my machine to analyze the full CPython code base.
Note that we'll need to iron out some OS-specific stuff (e.g. preprocessor). We're okay though since this tool isn't used yet in our workflow. We will also need to verify the analysis results in detail before activating the check in CI, though I'm pretty sure it's close.
