In `extending/newtypes_tutorial.rst` the following phrase appears:


"[...], containing a pointer to a type object and a reference count (these can be accessed using the macros :c:macro:`Py_REFCNT` and c:macro:`Py_TYPE` respectively)."

I believe it should read "using the macros :c:macro:`Py_TYPE` and c:macro:`Py_REFCNT` respectively" to follow the same order in which the fields are described.

I'll put forward a patch. It seems this phrase goes way back a few python versions, but I'm tagging 3.11 here only.
