Specialize iteration for the concrete types `list` and `tuple`, since this is faster than iterating over an abstract iterable in compiled code. Duplicate some very hot code in the hopes further improving preformance slightly, through inlining and possibly also better branch prediction. This is a part of a set of micro-optimizations that improve self check performance by ~5.5%.

Specialize iteration for the concrete types
listandtuple, since this is faster than iterating over an abstract iterable in compiled code. Also avoid constructing many temporary lists.Duplicate some very hot code in the hopes further improving performance slightly, through inlining and possibly also better branch prediction.
The approach is similar to what I used in #19459.
