Calling inherited BaseType.specialization_name() on a
MemoryViewSliceType generates a name like "Pyx_memviewslice", which
meant, for example, that generated utility code could have a name like

    __pyx_convert_from_py__Pyx_memviewslice

which would collide with utility code generated for other memoryviews
that might have other base types. That would mean something like

    def test_memviews_diff(a,b):
        cdef vector[double[:]] aa = a
        cdef vector[int[:]] bb = b

would first have a compile error (function redefinition due to how
utility code is currently generated) and second, if only one such
utility function were emitted instead of one for each memoryview base
type, have problems with any type-specific generated code, e.g.

    // generated inside __Pyx_PyObject_to_MemoryviewSlice,
    // which is called from __pyx_convert_vector_from_py___Pyx_memviewslice
    // note __Pyx_TypeInfo_double
    retcode = __Pyx_ValidateAndInit_memviewslice(axes_specs, 0,
                                                 PyBUF_RECORDS, 1,
                                                 &__Pyx_TypeInfo_double, stack,
                                                 &result, obj);

By adding the dtype tag to the name string returned by
specialization_name(), distinct utility code functions are generated (at
least in the case above) and thus there is no name collision.

always create a new IntNode for the step value in iter-range optimisation as we overwrite its value later

Optimized reversed range with constant negative steps.

extend reversed iteration tests, including disabled tests for negative step values that fail when enabled

Use PySequence_List, PySequence_Tuple

Cython array import naming conflict

do not depend on reversed(range()) bounds having a numeric type and just use whatever spanning type we find

Optimized reversed-range call when constants are inside of the range.
