* Add feature controlling the global reference pool to enable avoiding its overhead. * Document reference-pool feature in the performance guide. * Invert semantics of feature to disable reference pool so the new behaviour becomes opt-in * Remove delayed reference count increments as we cannot prevent reference count errors as long as these are available * Adjust tests to be compatible with disable-reference-pool feature * Adjust tests to be compatible with py-clone feature * Adjust the GIL benchmark to the updated reference pool semantics. * Further extend and clarify the documentation of the py-clone and disable-reference-pool features * Replace disable-reference-pool feature by pyo3_disable_reference_pool conditional compilation flag Such a flag is harder to use and thereby also harder to abuse. This seems appropriate as this is purely a performance-oriented change which show only be enabled by leaf crates and brings with it additional highly implicit sources of process aborts. * Add pyo3_leak_on_drop_without_reference_pool to turn aborts into leaks when the global reference pool is disabled and the GIL is not held

Cloneing pointers into the Python heap has been moved behind the py-clone feature, as it must panic without the GIL being held as a soundness fix.
