Sam Gross b9d2ee687c gh-129701: Fix a data race in intern_common in the free threaded build (GH-130089)
* gh-129701: Fix a data race in `intern_common` in the free threaded build

* Use a mutex to avoid potentially returning a non-immortalized string,
  because immortalization happens after the insertion into the interned
  dict.

* Use `Py_DECREF()` calls instead of `Py_SET_REFCNT(s, Py_REFCNT(s) - 2)`
  for thread-safety. This code path isn't performance sensistive, so
  just use `Py_DECREF()` unconditionally for simplicity.

The Python C API
================

The C API is divided into these sections:

1. ``Include/``: Limited API
2. ``Include/cpython/``: CPython implementation details
3. ``Include/cpython/``, names with the ``PyUnstable_`` prefix: API that can
   change between minor releases
4. ``Include/internal/``, and any name with ``_`` prefix: The internal API

Information on changing the C API is available `in the developer guide`_
