bpo-24416: Return named tuple from date.isocalendar() (GH-20113)

{date, datetime}.isocalendar() now return a private custom named tuple object
IsoCalendarDate rather than a simple tuple.

In order to leave IsocalendarDate as a private class and to improve what
backwards compatibility is offered for pickling the result of a
datetime.isocalendar() call, add a __reduce__ method to the named tuples that
reduces them to plain tuples. (This is the part of this PR most likely to cause
problems — if it causes major issues, switching to a strucseq or equivalent
would be prudent).

The pure python implementation of IsoCalendarDate uses positional-only
arguments, since it is private and only constructed by position anyway; the
equivalent change in the argument clinic on the C side would require us to move
the forward declaration of the type above the clinic import for whatever
reason, so it seems preferable to hold off on that for now.
