Core and Builtins

+- Issue #25843: When compiling code, don't merge constants if they are equal
+ but have a different types. For example, ``f1, f2 = lambda: 1, lambda: 1.0``
+ is now correctly compiled to two different functions: ``f1()`` returns ``1``
+ (``int``) and ``f2()`` returns ``1.0`` (``int``), even if ``1`` and ``1.0``
+ are equal.

- Issue #22995: [UPDATE] Remove the one of the pickleability tests in
_PyObject_GetState() due to regressions observed in Cython-based projects.
