I think this is only valid when PyString_CheckExact is true. A subclass
could override __mod__, right?

I'm somewhat interested to see how a primarily-numeric benchmark
responds to this patch. I'd expect it to get very slightly slower for %
operations. Probably, given that there's an indirect call in the way,
the extra test would hide in the noise, but it's worth checking. What's
a good numeric benchmark suite? `time ./python Lib/test/test_decimal.py`?
