Log Message:
1.5 more microseconds, this time by going to Pyrex.  Execution time is down
to 6.01 for the test, which means the overhead is now a mere 5.25 uS!
I also split the dispatch code out of protocols._speedups and into a new
dispatch._speedups module.  I think I'm now officially done trying to trim
time off the "fast path", and can now turn towards optimizing expression
calculation times, at least once I come up with an appropriate test.  But
before that, it'd probably be a good idea to rationalize the built-in
errors for "no methods" and "ambiguous methods" so that chained methods
can detect when the next method is absent or ambiguous, and so that error
messages contain more helpful information.  Then finishing the method
combiner framework, and adding pattern matching support should probably
come before optimizing expression calculation and the other dispatch
functions (like dispatch_by_mro).
