Core and builtins
-----------------
+- Limit the nested depth of a tuple for the second argument to isinstance()
+ and issubclass() to the recursion limit of the interpreter.
+ Fixes bug #858016 .
+
- Optimized dict iterators, creating separate types for each
and having them reveal their length. Also optimized the
methods: keys(), values(), and items().
