Sam Gross 3ea488aac4 gh-124218: Use per-thread refcounts for code objects (#125216)
Use per-thread refcounting for the reference from function objects to
their corresponding code object. This can be a source of contention when
frequently creating nested functions. Deferred refcounting alone isn't a
great fit here because these references are on the heap and may be
modified by other libraries.

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`_
