ThePy_UNUSED() is not implemented for the Windows MSVC compiler.

Example with this function included by Python.h: see#107239 (comment)

static inline unsigned intPyUnicode_IS_READY(PyObject* Py_UNUSED(op)){ return 1; }

Without my change, building a C program withcl /W4 which just includes Python.h emits the warning:

Include\cpython/unicodeobject.h(199): warning C4100: '_unused_op': unreferenced formal parameter

With my change, no warnings are emitted!
