glob module; they are now about 3--6 times faster.

Directly pass NULL rather than an empty string.

Don't pass "()" format to PyObject_CallXXX() to call a function without
argument: pass NULL as the format string instead. It avoids to have to parse a
string to produce 0 argument.

It is unused. It also forces a 16-byte alignment, which creates problems because

Other changes:

* Rewrite _Py_normalize_encoding() as a C implementation of
  encodings.normalize_encoding(). For example, " utf-8 " is now normalized to
  "utf_8". So the fast path is now used for more name variants of the same
  encoding.
* Avoid strcpy() when encoding is NULL: call directly the UTF-8 codec
