Immortalization:
The following indicates the immortalization strategy depending on the amount
of available bits in the reference count field. All strategies are backwards
compatible but the specific reference count value or immortalization check
might change depending on the specializations for the underlying system.
Proper deallocation of immortal instances requires distinguishing between
statically allocated immortal instances vs those promoted by the runtime to be
immortal. The latter should be the only instances that require
cleanup during runtime finalization.

/*
In 64+ bit systems, an object will be marked as immortal by setting all of the
lower 32 bits of the reference count field, which is equal to: 0xFFFFFFFF
Using the lower 32 bits makes the value backwards compatible by allowing
C-Extensions without the updated checks in Py_INCREF and Py_DECREF to safely
increase and decrease the objects reference count. The object would lose its
immortality, but the execution would still be correct.
Reference count increases will use saturated arithmetic, taking advantage of
having all the lower 32 bits set, which will avoid the reference count to go
beyond the refcount limit. Immortality checks for reference count decreases will
be done by checking the bit sign flag in the lower 32 bits.

/*
The macros Py_INCREF(op) and Py_DECREF(op) are used to increment or decrement
reference counts. Py_DECREF calls the object's deallocator function when
the refcount falls to 0; for
objects that don't contain references to other objects or heap memory
this can be the standard function free(). Both macros can be used
wherever a void expression is allowed. The argument must not be a
NULL pointer. If it may be NULL, use Py_XINCREF/Py_XDECREF instead.
The macro _Py_NewReference(op) initialize reference counts to 1, and
in special builds (Py_REF_DEBUG, Py_TRACE_REFS) performs additional
bookkeeping appropriate to the special build.
We assume that the reference count field can never overflow; this can
be proven when the size of the field is the same as the pointer size, so
we ignore the possibility. Provided a C int is at least 32 bits (which
is implicitly assumed in many parts of this code), that's enough for
about 2**31 references to an object.
XXX The following became out of date in Python 2.2, but I'm not sure
XXX what the full truth is now. Certainly, heap-allocated type objects
XXX can and should be deallocated.
Type objects should never be deallocated; the type pointer in an object
is not considered to be a reference to the type object, to save
complications in the deallocation function. (This is actually a
decision that's up to the implementer of each new type so if you want,
you can count such references to the type object.)

/* Safely decref `op` and set `op` to NULL, especially useful in tp_clear
* and tp_dealloc implementations.
*
* Note that "the obvious" code can be deadly:
*
* Py_XDECREF(op);
* op = NULL;
*
* Typically, `op` is something like self->containee, and `self` is done
* using its `containee` member. In the code sequence above, suppose
* `containee` is non-NULL with a refcount of 1. Its refcount falls to
* 0 on the first line, which can trigger an arbitrary amount of code,
* possibly including finalizers (like __del__ methods or weakref callbacks)
* coded in Python, which in turn can release the GIL and allow other threads
* to run, etc. Such code may even invoke methods of `self` again, or cause
* cyclic gc to trigger, but-- oops! --self->containee still points to the
* object being torn down, and it may be in an insane state while being torn
* down. This has in fact been a rich historic source of miserable (rare &
* hard-to-diagnose) segfaulting (and other) bugs.
*
* The safe way is:
*
* Py_CLEAR(op);
*
* That arranges to set `op` to NULL _before_ decref'ing, so that any code
* triggered as a side-effect of `op` getting torn down no longer believes
* `op` points to a valid object.
*
* There are cases where it's safe to use the naive code, but they're brittle.
* For example, if `op` points to a Python integer, you know that destroying
* one of those can't cause problems -- but in part that relies on that
* Python integers aren't currently weakly referencable. Best practice is
* to use Py_CLEAR() even if you can't think of a reason for why you need to.
*
* gh-98724: Use a temporary variable to only evaluate the macro argument once,
* to avoid the duplication of side effects if the argument has side effects.
*
* gh-99701: If the PyObject* type is used with casting arguments to PyObject*,
* the code can be miscompiled with strict aliasing because of type punning.
* With strict aliasing, a compiler considers that two pointers of different
* types cannot read or write the same memory which enables optimization
* opportunities.
*
* If available, use _Py_TYPEOF() to use the 'op' type for temporary variables,
* and so avoid type punning. Otherwise, use memcpy() which causes type erasure
* and so prevents the compiler to reuse an old cached 'op' value after
* Py_CLEAR().
