Check if interpreter is finalizing in ~ThreadStateCreator #414

Calling PyEval_AddPendingCall while the interpreter is finalizing can lead to a segfault due to the implementation in CPython of PyEval_AddPendingCall. This is a somewhat hacky fix to just check if it's finalizing before we try and schedule the cleanup.

I say somewhat hacky, cause it's still possible to race between checking and actually calling PyEval_AddPendingCall and end up segfaulting, but in practice so far this fix has completely solved our segfaulting issues. Arguably the most ideal fix here would be to fix this call in CPython to not segfault when the interpreter is shutting down, and just terminate the thread like it now does with the locking API

Fixes #411

* Replace C_RECURSION_LIMIT with Py_C_RECURSION_LIMIT.
* Add Py_C_RECURSION_LIMIT for Python 3.12 and older.
* Disable GREENLET_USE_CFRAME on Python 3.13.
* Define Py_BUILD_CORE to include pycore_frame.h.
* Don't test old Python on macos-latest. GitHub Action macos-latest
  was updated to arm64 which only supports recent Python versions.
  Continue testing old Python versions on Ubuntu.
* Fix make-manylinux: set /greenlet as safe directory
Appears to hang. It was a refcounting test so those can be flaky and version dependent anyway.
