Description
When checking for-loops for unbalanced dict unpacking, Pylint would compare the length of the targets with the length of the values iterable. However, since the for-loop would iterate the values and unpack each value in turn, Pylint should compare the length of the targets with the length of each value (and not the total length of values).
Closes #8156
