Same for Cython, although I guess we wouldn't do more than shipping the 
necessary declarations and (likely) also enable auto-coercion between the 
libmpdec decimal type (struct?) and CPython's decimal type, in the same way 
that we do it for byte strings.

Thus, a public header file with the necessary type checking and 
packing/unpacking C-API functions would be nice and also sufficient for now.
