* Fix tests to mach error message on PyPy

Shorten PYBIND11_EMBEDDED_MODULE macro implementation by using PYBIND11_CATCH_INIT_EXCEPTIONS (#2579)

* tests: New test for ctypes buffers (pybind#2502)

* fix: fix buffer_info segfault on views with no stride (pybind11#2502)

* Explicit conversions in buffer_info to make clang happy (pybind#2502)

* Another explicit cast in buffer_info constructor for clang (pybind#2502)

* Simpler implementation of buffer_info constructor from Py_buffer.

* Move test_ctypes_buffer into test_buffers

* Comment on why view->strides may be NULL (and fix some whitespace)

* Use c_strides() instead of zero when view->strides is NULL.

c_strides and f_strides are moved from numpy.h (py::array)
to buffer_info.h (py::detail) so they can be used from the
buffer_info Py_buffer constructor.

* Increase ctypes buffer test coverage in test_buffers.

* Split ctypes tests and skip one which is broken in PyPy2.

* WIP: module -> module_ without typedef

* refactor: allow py::module to work again

* feat: import check as a common function

* docs: add cmake to docs
