don't use a slot wrapper from a different special method (closes #14658)
This also alters the fix to #11603. Specifically, setting __repr__ to object.__str__ now raises a recursion RuntimeError when str() or repr() is called instead of silently bypassing the recursion. I believe this behavior is more correct.
