In Doc/c-api/structures.rst, I planned to give a high-level explanation of the vectorcall protocol (basically a short version of PEP 590). Right now this is not really explained. That's why I defined vectorcallfunc there.

Do you still think that this is a good idea?

I don't think c-api/structures is a good place, since vectorcall is not a structure.
But perhaps a new chapter on calling under "Abstract Objects Layer" would make sense – calling takes up half of c-api/object already.
