@colesbury -- As you implemented tstate refcounts, I'd like to hear your opinion on this. Do you think using reference counting before finalization is a good idea? |

I realize that this only fixes concurrent deletion, but not concurrent mutation. Silly me. |

This extends the
refcountfield to affectPyThreadState_Deleteand friends, letting us keep a thread state alive for slightly longer. This mechanism is far from being robust, because we're still not preventing the thread state from being cleared or other bad things, but it's a really nice start.We could go the route of letting the reference count field prevent any finalization happening to the thread state, but I want to hear opinions on this approach first.
