`atexit` module breaks refleak check

Bug report

Bug description:

If the test registers a callback with atexit module, refleak test will consider it a leak.

    def test_refleak(self):
        atexit.register(lambda: None)

This is the root cause of the buildbot failure of https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/139185. It's a couple of coincidences that caused the seemingly unrelated issue. Basically, clearing the module cache in test_zipimport made the module-level code in rlcompleter, which includes a register to atexit, run more than once.

There are a few possible approaches to fix this, but I did not find the solution that I'm immediately happy with.

I consider this a test framework bug as this should be a valid behavior. The ideal solution is to keep the atexit callbacks before running test in a loop and restore it after. However, atexit does not provide such an interface, public or private. You can either clear it or run it. The callbacks are stored in a state of the interpreter and we don't have any access to it.

Without that, we either need to somehow calculate the allocated memory by atexit, or hope that no one writes a test that writes to atexit. Of course there might be other ways that I did not think of.

Start with the refleak test framework and the test_refleak example that registers an atexit callback. Inspect how test_zipimport clearing the module cache causes rlcompleter's module-level registration to run repeatedly, and review linked PRs gh-139305 and gh-139357 for existing work. Done means valid atexit registrations no longer appear as refleaks.
