hash.c: Do not use the fast path (rb_yield_values) for lambda blocks
As a semantics, Hash#each yields a 2-element array (pairs of keys and values). So, `{ a: 1 }.each(&->(k, v) { })` should raise an exception due to lambda's arity check. However, the optimization that avoids Array allocation by using rb_yield_values for blocks whose arity is more than 1 (introduced at b9d29603375d17c3d1d609d9662f50beaec61fa1 and some commits), seemed to overlook the lambda case, and wrongly allowed the code above to work. This change experimentally attempts to make it strict; now the code above raises an ArgumentError. This is an incompatible change; if the compatibility issue is bigger than our expectation, it may be reverted (until Ruby 3.0 release). [Bug #12706]
