Optimize slots: avoid temporary PyMethodObject

Issue #29507: Optimize slots calling Python methods. For Python methods, get
the unbound Python function and prepend arguments with self, rather than
calling the descriptor which creates a temporary PyMethodObject.

Add a new _PyObject_FastCall_Prepend() function used to call the unbound Python
method with self. It avoids the creation of a temporary tuple to pass
positional arguments.

Avoiding temporary PyMethodObject and avoiding temporary tuple makes Python
slots up to 1.46x faster. Microbenchmark on a __getitem__() method implemented
in Python:

Median +- std dev: 121 ns +- 5 ns -> 82.8 ns +- 1.0 ns: 1.46x faster (-31%)

Two variants:
Variants:
- lookup_maybe() returns NULL without raising an exception
when the _PyType_Lookup() call fails;
- lookup_method() always raises an exception upon errors.
- lookup_maybe_method() and lookup_method() are similar to
lookup_maybe(), but can return unbound PyFunction
to avoid temporary method object. Pass self as first argument when
unbound == 1.
- _PyObject_LookupSpecial() exported for the benefit of other places.
- _PyObject_LookupSpecial() expose lookup_maybe for the benefit of
other places.
