…getstr}` (pythonGH-134283) * made curses buffer heap allocated instead of stack * change docs to explicitly mention the max buffer size * changing GetStr() function to behave similarly too * Update Doc/library/curses.rst * Update instr with proper return error handling * Update Modules/_cursesmodule.c * change to strlen and better memory safety * change from const int to Py_ssize_t * add mem allocation guard * update versionchanged to mention it was an increase. * explicitly use versionchanged 3.14 as that is its own branch now.
