I want to rename PyUnicode_AsUnicode() and change its result type (Py_UNICODE* 
=> wchar_t*). The result will be a "borrowed reference", ie. you don't have to 
free the memory, it will be done when the Unicode string will be destroyed (by 
Py_DECREF).

The problem is that Py_UNICODE type is now deprecated.
