python-cryptography: drop patch disabling abi3

[lazka]

it should work now after #18238

We could also build pyside6 with Py_LIMITED_API https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/blob/a7a713ce1562ece2006448680176bf6099109876/mingw-w64-pyside6/PKGBUILD

thanks, yeah. This will likely need more patching though, because pyside6 hardcodes MSVC file names from what I can see.

On a second thought, the main reason the limited API exists is to allow wheel builds for pypi, which we don't do, so we don't have much to gain from it unless it allows us to remove patches like in the python-cryptography case here.

I think that one the purposes of py_limited_api is to not rebuild packages with every new release.

[lazka]

true, that as well. Though I personally would try to rebuild it anyway to make sure things are still building fine after a major Python update.

if anyone wants to make it work, feel free :)
