   Move PyUnicode_WCHAR_KIND outside PyUnicode_Kind enum

What's the rationale for that change? It's a valid kind value, after
all, and the C convention is that an enumeration lists all valid values
(else there wouldn't be a need for an enumeration in the first place).

PyUnicode_KIND() only returns PyUnicode_1BYTE_KIND, PyUnicode_2BYTE_KIND or PyUnicode_4BYTE_KIND. Outside unicodeobject.c, you are not supposed to see PyUnicode_WCHAR_KIND.

For switch/case, it avoids the need of adding a dummy PyUnicode_WCHAR_KIND case (or a default case).
