_PyTrash_begin and _PyTrash_end do not have implementation #128910

Description

@sobolevn

We only have this left for _PyTrash_begin and _PyTrash_end:

~/Desktop/cpython2  main ✗                                                                
» ag _PyTrash_begin .
Misc/NEWS.d/3.9.0a5.rst
1217:PyThreadState attributes, but call new private _PyTrash_begin() and

Include/cpython/object.h
479:PyAPI_FUNC(int) _PyTrash_begin(PyThreadState *tstate, PyObject *op);
» ag _PyTrash_end .  
Misc/NEWS.d/3.9.0a5.rst
1218:_PyTrash_end() functions which hide implementation details.

Include/cpython/object.h
480:PyAPI_FUNC(void) _PyTrash_end(PyThreadState *tstate);                  

Source:

They don't even have implementations. Looks like that they used to be called from Py_TRASHCAN_BEGIN and Py_TRASHCAN_END in 3.9:

But, they are unused since #117763 in ~3.11

What should we do?

  1. Nothing
  2. Remove them
  3. Raise deprecation warning when they are called (but they return void, it would be hard to do)
