SF #904720 : dict.update should take a 2-tuple sequence like dict.__init_
...
(Championed by Bob Ippolito.)
The update() method for mappings now accepts all the same argument forms
as the dict() constructor. This includes item lists and/or keyword
arguments.

Fine tune the speed/space trade-off for overallocating small lists.
...
The Py2.3 approach overallocated small lists by up to 8 elements.
The last checkin would limited this to one but slowed down (by 20 to 30%)
the creation of small lists between 3 to 8 elements.
This tune-up balances the two, limiting overallocation to 3 elements
(significantly reducing space consumption from Py2.3) and running faster
than the previous checkin.
The first part of the growth pattern (0, 4, 8, 16) neatly meshes with
allocators that trigger data movement only when crossing a power of two
boundary. Also, then even numbers mesh well with common data alignments.

Further SET_LINENO reomval fixes. See comments in patch #587933 .
...
Use a slightly different strategy to determine when not to call the line
trace function. This removes the need for the RETURN_NONE opcode, so
that's gone again. Update docs and comments to match.
Thanks to Neal and Armin!
Also add a test suite. This should have come with the original patch...
