* Add :func:`ctypes.util.struct` for generating :class:`~ctypes.Structure` types
from an annotation-based syntax, similar to how the :mod:`dataclasses` module
is used.
(Contributed by Peter Bierma in :gh:`104533`.)
* Add :func:`ctypes.util.wrap_dll_function` for generating function pointers
through a function signature.
