In a free-threaded build, if allocating the thread-local bytecode cache fails after the code-object cache has been created, the initializer destroys the first cache and returns an error without clearing its pointer. Failed construction then invokes the unwinder's deallocator, which destroys the same cache again and can crash the profiling process instead of propagating MemoryError.
(cherry picked from commit b577a54)

Failed construction then invokes the unwinder's deallocator, which destroys the same cache again and can crash the profiling process instead of propagating `MemoryError`.
