Subject: [PATCH] Speedup Line2D marker color setting.

np.any is quite slow, so avoid it if no numpy arrays are involved.

Because all ticks internally use lines, this change already speeds up
```
MPLBACKEND=agg python -mtimeit -s 'from matplotlib.figure import Figure' -- 'Figure().subplots(10, 10)'
```
by ~5%.
