gdb: switch tuple object helpers to Python limited API equivalents
* PyTuple_GET_ITEM -> PyTuple_GetItem * PyTuple_SET_ITEM -> PyTuple_SetItem * PyTuple_GET_SIZE -> PyTuple_Size Unlike PyTuple_SET_ITEM(), PyTuple_SetItem() returns an integer: 0 on success and -1 on error (e.g. IndexError). The existing code must therefore be updated to handle this new behaviour. Since processing now stops when PyTuple_SetItem() returns an error, some resources (such as newly allocated tuples) must be properly deallocated in error paths. To address this, this patch replaces the use of raw 'PyObject *' pointers with gdbpy_ref<>, a reference-counted wrapper around 'PyObject *', which automatically decrements the reference count on early exit. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23830 Approved-By: Tom Tromey <tom@tromey.com>
