gh-124375: Avoid calling `_PyMem_ProcessDelayed` on other thread states (#124459)
This fixes a crash when running the PyO3 test suite on the free-threaded build. The `qsbr` field is initialized after the `PyThreadState` is added to the interpreter's linked list -- it might still be NULL. Instead, we "steal" the queue of to-be-freed memory blocks. This is always initialized (possibly empty) and protected by the stop the world pause.
