Antoine Pitrou f8387af262 Issue #4688: Add a heuristic so that tuples and dicts containing only
untrackable objects are not tracked by the garbage collector. This can
reduce the size of collections and therefore the garbage collection overhead
on long-running programs, depending on their particular use of datatypes.

(trivia: this makes the "binary_trees" benchmark from the Computer Language
Shootout 40% faster)

Jeffrey Yasskin 68d6852006 Backport r69961 to trunk, replacing JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE} with
POP_JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE} and JUMP_IF_{TRUE,FALSE}_OR_POP. This avoids executing
a POP_TOP on each conditional and sometimes allows the peephole optimizer to
skip a JUMP_ABSOLUTE entirely. It speeds up list comprehensions significantly.
