Users of PySequence_GET_FAST() should get the length of the sequence using
PySequence_Size(), not PyObject_Size(): the later considers the mapping methods as well as the sequence methods, which is not needed here. Either should be equally fast in this case, but PySequence_Size() offers a better conceptual match.
