Since adding new operator is a syntax-level change, it needs a PEP. It is better to start with discussing on the Python-ideas mailing list (https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/). Let's see if this idea will be accepted favorably. BTW, the ceiling division can be expressed as -(-a // b) or -(a // -b).
