The proposed PR optimizes "from ... import ..." from non-package modules.

$ ./python -m perf timeit 'from locale import getlocale'
Unpatched:  Mean +- std dev: 811 ns +- 27 ns

Currently _bootstrap._handle_fromlist() is called which does nothing if the module is not a package, but adds an overhead of calling a Python function. The PR moves this check out of _handle_fromlist and avoid calling it if not needed.
