PERF: MultiIndex equals method got 20x slower
### 

- [X] I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

- [X] I have confirmed this issue exists on the [latest version](https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/whatsnew/index.html) of pandas.

- [ ] I have confirmed this issue exists on the master branch of pandas.


### Reproducible Example

from dateutil import tz
import pandas as pd
from time import time

dates = pd.date_range('2010-01-01', periods=1000, tz=tz.tzutc())
index = pd.MultiIndex.from_product([range(100), dates])
index2 = index.copy()
start_time = time()
index.equals(index2)
used_time = time() - start_time
print("Took", int(used_time*1000), "milliseconds")

### Prior Performance

This issue did not exist in pandas 1.2.5. The timing measured by the script with pandas 1.2.5 on my computer is about 30 milliseconds, while the timing in pandas 1.3.1, 1.3.2 and 1.3.3 is about 600 ms. Thus there has been a 20x increase in run time. This severely impacts the performance of our application. A section of our code that used to take about 30 seconds, now takes about 10 minutes (that code uses `pd.concat` a lot, which in turn calls `MultiIndex.equals`).
