Neal Norwitz ee3a1b5244 Variation of patch # 1624059 to speed up checking if an object is a subclass
of some of the common builtin types.

Use a bit in tp_flags for each common builtin type.  Check the bit
to determine if any instance is a subclass of these common types.
The check avoids a function call and O(n) search of the base classes.
The check is done in the various Py*_Check macros rather than calling
PyType_IsSubtype().

All the bits are set in tp_flags when the type is declared
in the Objects/*object.c files because PyType_Ready() is not called
for all the types.  Should PyType_Ready() be called for all types?
If so and the change is made, the changes to the Objects/*object.c files
can be reverted (remove setting the tp_flags).  Objects/typeobject.c
would also have to be modified to add conditions
for Py*_CheckExact() in addition to each the PyType_IsSubtype check.

/* List object interface */
/*
Another generally useful object type is an list of object pointers.
This is a mutable type: the list items can be changed, and items can be
added or removed. Out-of-range indices or non-list objects are ignored.
*** WARNING *** PyList_SetItem does not increment the new item's reference
count, but does decrement the reference count of the item it replaces,
if not nil. It does *decrement* the reference count if it is *not*
inserted in the list. Similarly, PyList_GetItem does not increment the
returned item's reference count.
