Changing PyObject_Repr is too course; it affects a broad class of objects other than containers, and it risks unknown impacts to larges swaths of third-party code use this venerable API.  It is also a break with the long established history of recursion detection being a responsibility of the individual types (i.e. the code in sets, lists, dicts, etc.)

The three cases listed here should be fixed individually.
