[Python] Disable PyExtensionType autoload #38607

Description

@pitrou

Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform.

PyExtensionType autoload is really a misfeature. It creates Python-specific extension types and using ExtensionType is almost the same complexity.

We should therefore disable PyExtensionType autoloading and deprecate PyExtensionType instantiation.
