This PR makes the following (currently illegal) syntax legal:

def f():
    return *(1, 2), *(3, 4)

This eliminates an inconsistency between the target of a return and the target of a simple assignment: the following syntax is already legal:

def f():
    x = *(1, 2), *(3, 4)
    return x

Shouldn't we just close this? This has already been done.
