RecursionError with hundreds of consecutive type comments

[correctmost]

Steps to reproduce

The following code triggers a RecursionError in astroid:

a=1 #type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b#type:a=b
