/// Marker type that indicates that the GIL is currently held.

/// This is used to indicate that the operation accesses/modifies the Python interpreter state,
/// and thus can only be called if the Python interpreter is initialized and the
/// Python global interpreter lock (GIL) is acquired. The lifetime `'p` represents the lifetime of
/// holding the lock.
///
/// Note that the GIL can be temporarily released by the Python interpreter during a function call
/// (e.g. importing a module), even when you're holding a GILGuard. In general, you don't need to
/// worry about this because the GIL is reacquired before returning to the Rust code:
///
/// ```text
/// `Python` exists   |=====================================|
/// GIL actually held |==========|         |================|
/// Rust code running |=======|                |==|  |======|
/// ```
///
/// This behaviour can cause deadlocks when trying to lock a Rust mutex while
/// holding the GIL:
///
///  * Thread 1 acquires the GIL
///  * Thread 1 locks a mutex
///  * Thread 1 makes a call into the Python interpreter which releases the GIL
///  * Thread 2 acquires the GIL
///  * Thread 2 tries to locks the mutex, blocks
///  * Thread 1's Python interpreter call blocks trying to reacquire the GIL held by thread 2
///
/// To avoid deadlocking, you should release the GIL before trying to lock a mutex, e.g. with

    ///   `Python` token which that reference was originally created with. If the returned values
    ///   from these methods are owned references they will inherit the same lifetime. As a result,
    ///   Rust's lifetime rules may allow them to outlive the `GILPool`, even though this is not
