I'd like to remove docstring from code object at all. func.__doc__ can be set by MAKE_FUNCTION or STORE_ATTR. Pros are: * Code objects can be bit smaller than adding co_doc. * Many code objects don't have docstrings. (e.g. lambdas, somprehensions, and PEP 649) * We can strip docstring on runtime and free some memory.
