gh-127081: add critical sections to dbm objects

[duaneg]

The dbm_* functions are not thread-safe, naturally. Add critical sections to protect their use.

• Issue: Thread-unsafe libc functions #127081

In general, it's easier to add lock_held variations of functions instead of adding inline critical sections with goto. For example:

staticintdbm_something_lock_held(PyObject*self)
{
/* ... */
}
staticintdbm_something(PyObject*self)
{
intresult;
Py_BEGIN_CRITICAL_SECTION(self);
result=dbm_something_lock_held(self);
Py_END_CRITICAL_SECTION();
returnresult;
}

Would you mind switching over to that pattern here?

For sure, that would be much more robust, thanks!

Sorry for the delay, I will review during the PyCon sprint.

LGTM as well

Would you like to update clinic again?
