"Argument Clinic How-To" misses generate_global_objects step #97956

Documentation

Right now our How-To Clinic guide does not mention that it is required to run python Tools/scripts/generate_global_objects.py command to generate global objects used by _Py_ID(), like in here:

 #define NUM_KEYWORDS 1 static struct { PyGC_Head _this_is_not_used; PyObject_VAR_HEAD PyObject *ob_item[NUM_KEYWORDS]; } _kwtuple = { .ob_base = PyVarObject_HEAD_INIT(&PyTuple_Type, NUM_KEYWORDS) .ob_item = { &_Py_ID(only_keys), }, // <--- Here! }; #undef NUM_KEYWORDS

With this command the build fails.
I will send a PR to update docs today.
