PySequence_In is not documented #127896
Description
Documentation
PySequence_In is part of the limited C-API, and has no document. PEP 3100 ( https://peps.python.org/pep-3100/ ) says this function is "To be removed," but it has not been removed in the latest version, so documentation seems to be needed.

New applications shouldn't use it, we just keep it for the limited API. I'm not sure we need to encourage more usage by documenting it.

It's exactly equivalent to
PySequence_Contains.The docs should mention that it's deprecated, and show the preferred spelling.

No idea what the precedent is here, but I suspect that it should be soft deprecated for compatibility reasons.

Formally, it's not deprecated yet;)
Maybe not. Search on the Github shows only few projects, which use this. On another hand, support this has 0 maintenance burden.
