[issue26280] ceval: Optimize list[int] (subscript) operation similarly to CPython 2.7

Zach Byrne added the comment:

Here's a patch that looks likes Victor's from the duplicate, but with tuples covered as well. I ran some straight forward micro benchmarks but haven't bothered running the benchmark suite yet. Unsurprisingly, optimized paths are faster, and the others take a penalty.
