PyToCType uses internal function removed from Python 3.13 about pyodbc HOT 3 OPEN

We're not the only ones affected by this regression: python/cpython#111140
pyodbc is mentioned there along with some other projects.

it seems a public function PyLong_AsNativeBytes has been added to do this job, IIUC. See https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/main/Doc/c-api/long.rst for docs on it.

As the error you get - "too few arguments" - implies, the function was re-added after it was removed, but then an extra argument, with_exceptions (an int acting as a boolean), was added in the same commit that introduced PyLong_AsNativeBytes. So for the short term, I think just adding the extra arg to the call would work. For the long term probably a good idea to switch to using the new public function, though. It seems setting with_exceptions to 1 would behave as the function did before (setting it to 0 skips raising an exception when trying to convert a negative int to unsigned).
