[issue8413] String interpolation doesn't work with sys.version_info

Brian Curtin <curtin at acm.org> added the comment:

A side effect of this change is that it kills the ability to have a PyStructSequence which has a smaller visible size than the total number of items. For example, sys.getwindowsversion used to have 5 items in the sequence and 4 items accessible by name only (for backwards compatibility) -- now it's a 9 item tuple.
