Comment:

 In order to get the behavior to match, I had to call `sorted(set(S))` on
 the base set `S` when using `itertools`. On using the output from GAP, I
 had to do `map(tuple, eval(ans))` because that returned lists (or
 sometimes strings). I've given the choice to the user to decide on which
 algorithm. Here are some timings (with GAP already running):
 {{{
 sage: %timeit unordered_tuples([1,2,3],2,algorithm='itertools')
 10000 loops, best of 3: 31.9 µs per loop
 sage: %timeit unordered_tuples([1,2,3],2,algorithm='gap')
 1000 loops, best of 3: 1.65 ms per loop
 sage: %timeit eval(gap.eval( "UnorderedTuples(%s,%s)"%([1,2,3],ZZ(2)) ))
 1000 loops, best of 3: 1.65 ms per loop

 sage: %timeit unordered_tuples([1,2],6)
 10000 loops, best of 3: 31.4 µs per loop
 sage: %timeit unordered_tuples([1,2],6,algorithm='gap')
 100 loops, best of 3: 2.33 ms per loop
 sage: %timeit eval(gap.eval( "UnorderedTuples(%s,%s)"%([1,2],ZZ(6)) ))
 100 loops, best of 3: 2.06 ms per loop

 sage: %timeit unordered_tuples(range(30), 6)
 1 loops, best of 3: 590 ms per loop
 sage: %timeit eval(gap.eval( "UnorderedTuples(%s,%s)"%(range(30),ZZ(6)) ))
 # I got bored after a minute and killed it
 }}}
 So even with everything, there is a major speedup. Now once this gets
 replaced with libgap (#16719), we'll have to rerun timings.
