+* Added bindings for `PyList_GetItemRef` on Python 3.13 and newer. Also added
+  `ffi::compat::PyList_GetItemRef` which re-exports the FFI binding on Python
+  3.13 and newer and defines a compatibility shim on older versions. This
+  function returns an owned reference to the item in the list and should be
+  preferred if the list is not known *a priori* to be shared between threads.
