Memory leak on interpreter shutdown when reference cycle exists between `structseq` type and its instance

Bug report

Bug description:

Environment

• Commit/Branch: main (rev: 2d9fb5f2f70b18ce9e5d9f7f76fd5ef3f118d838)
• OS: Linux
• Build flags:

  CC=clang CXX=clang++ LDFLAGS='-fuse-ld=lld' ./configure --with-address-sanitizer --with-undefined-behavior-sanitizer --with-pydebug && make -j$(nproc)
  

Steps to reproduce

Run:

./python -c "import time; t = time.gmtime(); type(t).refcyle = t;"

Note: Explicitly breaking the cycle avoids the leak:

./python -c "import time; t = time.gmtime(); type(t).refcyle = t; del type(t).refcyle"

Expected behavior

The garbage collector or interpreter finalization breaks the reference cycle during shutdown; no memory leaks reported by LeakSanitizer.

Actual behavior

LeakSanitizer detects memory leaks (indirect leaks of the type, its dict, descriptors, and the instance):

Empieza con el reproducer en el ASan/UBSan pydebug build y, después, inspecciona Objects/structseq.c y las rutas de asignación en Objects/typeobject.c, Python/gc.c y Modules/timemodule.c. Compara el comportamiento con el PR enlazado gh-157179. Se considera terminado cuando el ciclo ya no produce fugas de LeakSanitizer durante el apagado del intérprete.
