Limit the long_vectorcall arity diagnostic to exact int.

CPython sets long_vectorcall only as the tp_vectorcall of PyLong_Type. A heap subclass does not inherit it, so a call such as class I(int): pass; I(1, 2, 3) goes through long_new. That path uses the Clinic _PyArg_UnpackKeywords parser, which reports int() takes at most 2 arguments (3 given).

This new check runs for every cls except bool. A subclass call therefore reports int expected at most 2 arguments, got 3. Without this check, the binder would return the Clinic message for subclasses.

Add a cls.is(vm.ctx.types.int_type) guard so that only the exact type gets the vectorcall diagnostic.

             return Err(vm.new_arity_type_error(Self::NAME, 0..=2, args.args.len()));

Add an exact-type check to the arity diagnostic condition so it applies only
when cls is vm.ctx.types.int_type; preserve the existing keyword-free and
argument-count checks for that path. Leave subclass calls to use the existing
binder diagnostic.

Limit the str_vectorcall arity diagnostic to exact str.

CPython uses str_vectorcall only for exact str. A subclass call such as class S(str): pass; S(1, 2, 3, 4) goes through unicode_new and its Clinic parser, which reports str() takes at most 3 arguments (4 given). This check runs for every cls, so subclass calls get the vectorcall wording. Add a cls.is(vm.ctx.types.str_type) guard. The same root cause applies to the new int check in crates/vm/src/builtins/int.rs.

🐛 Proposed fix 

-        if func_args.kwargs.is_empty() && func_args.args.len() > 3 {
+        if cls.is(vm.ctx.types.str_type)
+            && func_args.kwargs.is_empty()
+            && func_args.args.len() > 3

Review comment at @crates/vm/src/builtins/str.rs around lines 424 - 426:
Update the arity check in str_vectorcall to run only when cls is the exact str
type, while preserving its existing keyword-free and argument-count conditions.
Apply the same exact-type restriction to the corresponding new int arity check
so subclass calls retain their constructor diagnostics.
