 Merge PR438 from branch '2891-remove-numdict'

 This removes some code in dictutil.py that we weren't using, or which
 could
 be replaced by something simpler. This code is troublesome, because our
 unit
 tests only achieve intermittent coverage, so other (unrelated) PRs are
 failing CI when the coverage appears to go down.

 I tried to improve the tests to reliably cover everything in dictutil.py,
 and
 discovered code that couldn't possibly have worked in the first place. So
 the
 easiest approach was just to delete it all.
