Follow-up of the issue #29311 "Argument Clinic: convert dict methods".

The dict.update() method hs a special prototype:

   def update(arg=None **kw): ...

I don't think that Argument Clinic supports it right now, so I propose to first optimize dict_update() to use METH_FASTCALL.

Attached patch is a first step: convert kwnames tuple to a dict.

A second step would be to avoid the temporary dict and update the dict using args + kwnames directly.
