A few miscellaneous helpers.
PyObject_Dump(): New function that is useful when debugging Python's C
runtime. In something like gdb it can be a pain to get some useful
information out of PyObject*'s. This function prints the str() of the
object to stderr, along with the object's refcount and hex address.
PyGC_Dump(): Similar to PyObject_Dump() but knows how to cast from the
garbage collector prefix back to the PyObject* structure.
[See Misc/gdbinit for some useful gdb hooks]
none_dealloc(): Rather than SEGV if we accidentally decref None out of
existance, we assign None's and NotImplemented's destructor slot to
this function, which just calls abort().
