Expose the type of struct/union field descriptors (_ctypes._CField) as ctypes.CField. (This is mainly to make it easier to refer to it -- for typing and documentation. Creating CFields manually is not supported.)

Add attributes for easier introspection:

• name & type, as defined in _fields_
• byte_size & byte_offset, specify the chunk of memory to read/write
• bit_size & bit_offset, which specify the shift & mask for bitfields
• is_bitfield & is_anonymous booleans

The existing offset remains, as an alias for byte_offset.
The existing size is unchanged. Usually it is the same as byte_size, but for bitfields, it contains a bit-packed combination of bit_size & bit_offset.

Update the repr() of CField.

Use the same values internally as well. (Except bit_size, which might overflow Py_ssize_t for very large types. Instead, in C use bitfield_size, which is 0 for non-bitfields and thus serves as is_bitfield flag. Different name used clarity.)
Old names are removed from the C implementation to ensure a clean transition.
For simplicity, I keep byte_size in CFieldObject for now, even though it's redundant: it's the size of the underlying type.

Add a generic test that ensures the values are consistent, and that we don't have overlapping fields in structs. Use this check throughout test_ctypes, wherever a potentially interesting Structure or Union is created. (Tests for how simple structs behave after they're created don't need the checks, but I erred on the side of adding checks.)

Lift the restriction on maximum field size that was temporarily added in GH-126938. The max size is now Py_ssize_t.

This PR does not yet touch cfield.c getters & setters: the bit-packed “size” argument is computed and passed to those.
