I said for the iterator. Not for the main class. I would not bother if
`iter(IntegerLists(10^100))` just failed. It should be very fast for small
entries. I guess that one option would be to use Nathann strategy in
#18137 with fused Cython type (here `unsigned int` and `mpz_t`). But I
remember that it was nearly impossible to make it work as attributes of an
extension class.
