pythongh-112529: Track if debug allocator is used as underlying alloc…
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
…ator

The GC implementation for free-threaded builds will need to accurately
detect if the debug allocator is used because it affects the offset of
the Python object from the beginning of the memory allocation. The
current implementation of `_PyMem_DebugEnabled` only considers if the
debug allocator is the outer-most allocator; it doesn't handle the case
of "hooks" like tracemalloc being used on top of the debug allocator.

This change enables more accurate detection of the debug allocator by
tracking when debug hooks are enabled.
