* clang-tidy fixes (automatic)
* Add `is_redundant_value_and_holder()` and use to avoid forcing `__init__` overrides when they are not needed.
* Streamline implementation and avoid unsafe `reinterpret_cast<instance *>()` introduced with PR #2152
The `reinterpret_cast<instance *>(self)` is unsafe if `__new__` is mocked,
which was actually found in the wild: the mock returned `None` for `self`.
This was inconsequential because `inst` is currently cast straight back to
`PyObject *` to compute `all_type_info()`, which is empty if `self` is not
a pybind11 `instance`, and then `inst` is never dereferenced. However, the
unsafe detour through `instance *` is easily avoided and the updated
implementation is less prone to accidents while debugging or refactoring.
* Fix actual undefined behavior exposed by previous changes.
It turns out the previous commit message is incorrect, the `inst` pointer is actually dereferenced, in the `value_and_holder` ctor here:
f3e0602802/include/pybind11/detail/type_caster_base.h (L262-L263)

* Update pytest (which removes their dependency on py)
The py library through 1.11.0 for Python allows remote attackers to conduct a ReDoS (Regular expression Denial of Service) attack via a Subversion repository with crafted info data, because the InfoSvnCommand argument is mishandled.
The particular codepath in question is the regular expression at py._path.svnurl.InfoSvnCommand.lspattern and is only relevant when dealing with subversion (svn) projects. Notably the codepath is not used in the popular pytest project. The developers of the pytest package have released version 7.2.0 which removes their dependency on py. Users of pytest seeing alerts relating to this advisory may update to version 7.2.0 of pytest to resolve this issue. See https://github.com/pytest-dev/py/issues/287#issuecomment-1290407715 for additional context.

* Use `py::set_error()` everywhere possible (only one special case, in common.h).
Overload `py::set_error(py::handle, py::handle)`.
Change back to `static py::handle exc = ... .release();`
Deprecate `py::exception<>::operator()`
* Add `PYBIND11_WARNING_DISABLE` for INTEL and MSVC (and sort alphabetically).
* `PYBIND11_WARNING_DISABLE_INTEL(10441)` does not work.
For ICC only, falling back to the recommended `py::set_error()` to keep the testing simple.
It is troublesome to add `--diag-disable=10441` specifically for test_exceptions.cpp, even that is non-ideal because it covers the entire file, not just the one line we need it for, and the value of exercising the trivial deprecated `operator()` on this one extra platform is practically zero.
* Fix silly oversight.
* NVHPC 23.5.0 generates deprecation warnings. They are currently not treated as errors, but falling back to using `py::set_error()` to not have to deal with that distraction.

* resolve clang-tidy warning
* Use existing constructor instead of adding a static method. Thanks @Skylion007 for pointing out.
* Add `format_descriptor<PyObject *>`
Trivial addition, but still in search for a meaningful test.
* Add test_format_descriptor_format
* Ensure the Eigen `type_caster`s do not segfault when loading arrays with dtype=object
* Use `static_assert()` `!std::is_pointer<>` to replace runtime guards.
* Add comments to explain how to check for ref-count bugs. (NO code changes.)
* Make the "Pointer types ... are not supported" message Eigen-specific, as suggested by @Lalaland. Move to new pybind11/eigen/common.h header.
* Change "format_descriptor_format" implementation as suggested by @Lalaland. Additional tests meant to ensure consistency between py::format_descriptor<>, np.array, np.format_parser turn out to be useful only to highlight long-standing inconsistencies.
* resolve clang-tidy warning
* Account for np.float128, np.complex256 not being available on Windows, in a future-proof way.
* Fully address i|q|l ambiguity (hopefully).
* Remove the new `np.format_parser()`-based test, it's much more distracting than useful.
* Use bi.itemsize to disambiguate "l" or "L"
* Use `py::detail::compare_buffer_info<T>::compare()` to validate the `format_descriptor<T>::format()` strings.
