I finally had some time so here's an updated patch (including O(1) deletions).  
I've also added a bunch of notes at the top of odictobject.c.  Some notable 
things left to do:

* address two recently failing tests due to r83881 (issue 17900)
* check for any reference cycles (should be fine)
* validate reentrancy (make sure everything is thread-safe around calls into 
Python)
* make sure subclassing is okay
* compare performance to dict, pure Python OrderedDict

My goal here is to get an effective OrderedDict that we are happy with, while 
recognizing that there is room for optimization.  However, I won't be okay with 
faultiness, so the implementation must be complete.  This has been my mindset 
throughout.
