save(): Fix for SF bug #494904: Cannot pickle a class with a
metaclass, reported by Dan Parisien. Objects that are instances of custom metaclasses, i.e. whose ob_type is a subclass of PyType_Type, should be pickled the same as new-style classes (objects whose ob_type is PyType_Type). This can't be done through the existing dispatch switches, and the __reduce__ trick doesn't work for these, since it finds the unbound __reduce__ for instances of the class (inherited from PyBaseObject_Type). So check explicitly using PyType_IsSubtype().
