bpo-42006: Stop using PyDict_GetItem, PyDict_GetItemString and _PyDict_GetItemId. (GH-22648)

These functions are considered not safe because they suppress all internal errors
and can return wrong result.  PyDict_GetItemString and _PyDict_GetItemId can
also silence current exception in rare cases.

Remove no longer used _PyDict_GetItemId.
Add _PyDict_ContainsId and rename _PyDict_Contains into
_PyDict_Contains_KnownHash.
