data races in decimal module with global context

Reproducer:

import decimal
from threading import Thread, Barrier

context = decimal.Context()
context.prec = 28

barrier = Barrier(10)

def race():
    barrier.wait()
    decimal.Decimal('1.0', context=context)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    while True:
        threads = [Thread(target=race) for _ in range(10)]
        for thread in threads:
            thread.start()
        for thread in threads:
            thread.join()

SUMMARY: ThreadSanitizer: data race _decimal.c:615 in dec_addstatus
==================

I discovered this while adding thread safety support to msgspec. Running its test suite under pytest-run-parallel leads to similar data races as present above from the minimal reproducer.
