Hi Phil,

Do you plan on adding support for the free-threaded python that's available
in python 3.13?

Some context, in the free threaded python, the GIL is disabled.  The
feature is in experimental support, but other projects such as numpy and
django already support it.

If there is an experimental build, I would be happy to help test.
