/********************* String Literals ****************************************/
/* This structure helps managing static strings. The basic usage goes like this:
   Instead of doing

       r = PyObject_CallMethod(o, "foo", "args", ...);

   do

       _Py_IDENTIFIER(foo);
       ...
       r = _PyObject_CallMethodId(o, &PyId_foo, "args", ...);

   PyId_foo is a static variable, either on block level or file level. On first
   usage, the string "foo" is interned, and the structures are linked. On interpreter
   shutdown, all strings are released (through _PyUnicode_ClearStaticStrings).

   Alternatively, _Py_static_string allows choosing the variable name.
   _PyUnicode_FromId returns a borrowed reference to the interned string.
   _PyObject_{Get,Set,Has}AttrId are __getattr__ versions using _Py_Identifier*.

/* Trashcan mechanism, thanks to Christian Tismer.

When deallocating a container object, it's possible to trigger an unbounded
chain of deallocations, as each Py_DECREF in turn drops the refcount on "the
next" object in the chain to 0.  This can easily lead to stack overflows,
especially in threads (which typically have less stack space to work with).

A container object can avoid this by bracketing the body of its tp_dealloc
function with a pair of macros:

static void
mytype_dealloc(mytype *p)
{
    ... declarations go here ...

    PyObject_GC_UnTrack(p);        // must untrack first
    Py_TRASHCAN_BEGIN(p, mytype_dealloc)
    ... The body of the deallocator goes here, including all calls ...
    ... to Py_DECREF on contained objects.                         ...
    Py_TRASHCAN_END                // there should be no code after this
}

CAUTION:  Never return from the middle of the body!  If the body needs to
"get out early", put a label immediately before the Py_TRASHCAN_END
call, and goto it.  Else the call-depth counter (see below) will stay
above 0 forever, and the trashcan will never get emptied.

How it works:  The BEGIN macro increments a call-depth counter.  So long
as this counter is small, the body of the deallocator is run directly without
further ado.  But if the counter gets large, it instead adds p to a list of
objects to be deallocated later, skips the body of the deallocator, and
resumes execution after the END macro.  The tp_dealloc routine then returns
without deallocating anything (and so unbounded call-stack depth is avoided).

When the call stack finishes unwinding again, code generated by the END macro
notices this, and calls another routine to deallocate all the objects that
may have been added to the list of deferred deallocations.  In effect, a
chain of N deallocations is broken into (N-1)/(PyTrash_UNWIND_LEVEL-1) pieces,
with the call stack never exceeding a depth of PyTrash_UNWIND_LEVEL.

Since the tp_dealloc of a subclass typically calls the tp_dealloc of the base
class, we need to ensure that the trashcan is only triggered on the tp_dealloc
of the actual class being deallocated. Otherwise we might end up with a
partially-deallocated object. To check this, the tp_dealloc function must be
passed as second argument to Py_TRASHCAN_BEGIN().
