Discussion item: Limited contexts for tp_traverse and tp_destroy

Mark has proposed limited contexts for these slots: https://github.com/markshannon/New-C-API-for-Python/blob/main/DesignRules.md#all-functions-to-take-an-opaque-context

It would help with the numpy port if we could have e.g. ctx->Mem_Free available to tp_destroy; or ctx->Field_Load, ctx->Global_Load, ctx->Type and ctx->Is available to tp_traverse
