Outdated post PEP-709 comment in Python/codegen.c

[Eclips4]

Bug report

Bug description:

After the implementation of https://peps.python.org/pep-0709/, this comment looks wrong:

cpython/Python/codegen.c

Lines 4079 to 4090 in 57e3c59

	/* List and set comprehensions and generator expressions work by creating a
	nested function to perform the actual iteration. This means that the
	iteration variables don't leak into the current scope.
	The defined function is called immediately following its definition, with the
	result of that call being the result of the expression.
	The LC/SC version returns the populated container, while the GE version is
	flagged in symtable.c as a generator, so it returns the generator object
	when the function is called.
	Possible cleanups:
	- iterate over the generator sequence instead of using recursion

Haven't checked in the code yet but generator expressions do not seem to be concerned by the inlining:

Generator expressions are currently not inlined in the reference implementation of this PEP. In the future, some generator expressions may be inlined, where the returned generator object does not leak.

I will take a look :)

We need to handle backport patch as well.
