Rehabilitated the fast-path richcmp code, and sped it up. It wasn't

helping for types that defined tp_richcmp but not tp_compare, although
that's when it's most valuable, and strings moved into that category
since the fast path was first introduced.  Now it helps for same-type
non-Instance objects that define rich or 3-way compares.

For all the edits here, the rest just amounts to moving the fast path from
do_richcmp into PyObject_RichCompare, saving a layer of function call
(measurable on my box!).  This loses when NESTING_LIMIT is exceeded, but I
don't care about that (fast-paths are for normal cases, not pathologies).

Also added a tasteful <wink> label to get out of PyObject_RichCompare, as
the if/else nesting in this routine was getting incomprehensible.
