The tp_dictoffset and Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_WEAKREF flag

[nybblista]

From the tp_dictoffset slot documentation:

"It is an error to set both the Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_WEAKREF bit and tp_dictoffset."

I think the Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_WEAKREF flag is being used incorrectly in this context. Do you mean the Py_TPFLAGS_MANAGED_DICT flag?

I agree that it looks like a typo (cc @vstinner)
