bpo-39028: Performance enhancement in keyword extraction (GH-17576)

All keywords should first be checked for pointer identity. Only
after that failed for all keywords (unlikely) should unicode
equality be used.
The original code would call unicode equality on any non-matching
keyword argument. Meaning calling it often e.g. when a function
has many kwargs but only the last one is provided.

Slightly improve the speed of keyword argument parsing with many kwargs by strengthening the assumption that kwargs are interned strings.
