[issue27945] Various segfaults with dict

[INADA Naoki]

INADA Naoki added the comment:

I modified the patch to avoid incref&decref when pair is not list, because tuple is common for such case.
But I can't get back original performance.

(python 2.7 is modified version of patch)

master: ......................................... 1.47 ms +- 0.06 ms
python2.7: ......................................... 1.55 ms +- 0.06 ms

Median +- std dev: [master] 1.47 ms +- 0.06 ms -> [python2.7] 1.55 ms +- 0.06 ms: 1.05x slower

Median +- std dev: [patched] 1.56 ms +- 0.08 ms -> [python2.7] 1.55 ms +- 0.09 ms: 1.01x faster
Not significant!
