I just noticed the code removes *all* PUT opcodes, regardless if they
are needed or not. So, this code can only be used if there's no GET in
the stream (which is unlikely for a large stream). I believe Collin
made this trade-off for performance reasons. However, it wouldn't be
hard to make the current code to work like pickletools.optimize().
