according to http://bugs.python.org/issue28298:

make array 'Q', 'L' and 'I' accept big intables (objects that have __int__) as elements
add to test_array tests to verify this change, and tests to verify that int types arrays don't accept floats as elements
while we are in test_array, remove checks whether long long is available

(I ran the test module again, and on my Windows 10, the same tests failed with
and without my patches. However, on my Ubuntu 16.04 VM, none of the tests
failed.)
