`PY_VERSION_HEX` should be used when comparing version numbers, for example `PY_VERSION_HEX >= 0x03080000`. Avoid `PY_MAJOR_VERSION >= 3 && PY_MINOR_VERSION >= 8` because that is true for 3.8-3.12, but also for 4.8-4.12 and so on. Hoist the comment from `PY_VERSION_HEX`'s definition in `patchlevel.h` to docs in `apiabiversion.rst`.
