-Fix two bugs related to the interaction of weakrefs and the garbage
-collector. The weakrefs in the ``tp_subclasses`` dictionary are needed in
-order to correctly invalidate type caches (for example, by calling
-``PyType_Modified()``).  Clearing weakrefs before calling finalizers causes
-the caches to not be correctly invalidated. That can cause crashes since the
-caches can refer to invalid objects.  This is fixed by deferring the
-clearing of weakrefs to classes and without callbacks until after finalizers
-are executed.

-The second bug is caused by weakrefs created while running finalizers. Those
-weakrefs can be outside the set of unreachable garbage and therefore survive
-the ``delete_garbage()`` phase (where ``tp_clear()`` is called on objects).
-Those weakrefs can expose to Python-level code objects that have had
-``tp_clear()`` called on them.  See GH-91636 as an example of this kind of
-bug. This is fixes be clearing all weakrefs to unreachable objects after
-finalizers have been executed.
