CO_VARARGS (4) and CO_VARKEYWORDS (8) are bitmask flags, but they were used directly as increment values for the argument count via `&`. This caused co_varnames[:argcount] to slice beyond the actual arguments when the function body contained enough local variables. Fix by wrapping the bitmask results in bool(), so they contribute at most 1 to the argcount. Closes #14492 (cherry picked from commit f976bb6)
