/// See the [`PyCell` guide entry](https://pyo3.rs/latest/class.html#pycell-and-interior-mutability)

/// As with [`Rc`]`<T>`, cloning it increases its reference count rather than duplicating
/// the underlying object.
///
/// This can be done using either [`Py::clone_ref`] or [`Py`]`<T>`'s [`Clone`] trait implementation.
/// [`Py::clone_ref`] will be faster if you happen to be already holding the GIL.

/// ```rust
/// use pyo3::prelude::*;
/// use pyo3::types::PyDict;

/// # fn main() {
/// Python::with_gil(|py| {
///     let first: Py<PyDict> = PyDict::new(py).into();

///     let fourth = Py::clone(&first);
///     let fifth = first.clone();
///
///     // Disposing of our original `Py<PyDict>` just decrements the reference count.

///
/// # Preventing reference cycles
///
/// It is easy to accidentally create reference cycles using [`Py`]`<T>`.
/// The Python interpreter can break these reference cycles within pyclasses if they
/// [integrate with the garbage collector][gc]. If your pyclass contains other Python
/// objects you should implement it to avoid leaking memory.
///
/// # A note on Python reference counts
///
/// Dropping a [`Py`]`<T>` will eventually decrease Python's reference count
/// of the pointed-to variable, allowing Python's garbage collector to free
/// the associated memory, but this may not happen immediately.  This is
/// because a [`Py`]`<T>` can be dropped at any time, but the Python reference
/// count can only be modified when the GIL is held.
///
/// If a [`Py`]`<T>` is dropped while its thread happens to be holding the
/// GIL then the Python reference count will be decreased immediately.
/// Otherwise, the reference count will be decreased the next time the GIL is
/// reacquired.
///
/// # A note on `Send` and `Sync`
///
/// Accessing this object is threadsafe, since any access to its API requires a [`Python<'py>`](crate::Python) token.
/// As you can only get this by acquiring the GIL, `Py<...>` "implements [`Send`] and [`Sync`].
