[issue11107] Cache constant "slice" instances

[Stefan Behnel]

Stefan Behnel <scoder at users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

Hmm, ok, but AFAICT, your patch was rejected rather because of the way it approached the problem, not so much because of the issue itself.

Plus, the fact that Python 3 requires slices in more places than Python 2 (which had the lower level getslice protocol) makes this a bigger issue now than it was three years ago.
