[Python-ideas] OrderedDict for kwargs and class statement namespace

Just wanted to put out some feelers for the feasibility of these two
features:

* have the **kwargs param be an OrderedDict rather than a dict
* have class definitions happen relative to an OrderedDict by default
rather than a dict, and still overridable by a metaclass's __prepare__().

Both of these will need OrderedDict in C, which is getting close (issue
#16991).
