There are really two issues here:

- hiding the symbols that *aren't* marked PyAPI_*, consistently across
platforms.
- finding symbols that are currently marked PyAPI_*, but shouldn't be.

The first one is a pretty straightforward technical improvement. The
second one is a longer-term project that could easily get bogged down
in complex judgement calls. So let's worry about them separately. Even
if there are too many symbols marked PyAPI_*, we can still get started
on hiding all the symbols that we *know* should be hidden.
