Fix obscure breakage (relative to 2.3) in listsort: the test for list
mutation during list.sort() used to rely on that listobject.c always NULL'ed ob_item when ob_size fell to 0. That's no longer true, so the test for list mutation during a sort is no longer reliable. Changed the test to rely instead on that listobject.c now never NULLs-out ob_item after (if ever) ob_item gets a non-NULL value. This new assumption is also documented now, as a required invariant in listobject.h. The new assumption allowed some real simplification to some of the hairier code in listsort(), so is a Good Thing on that count.
