Register a cleanup function to be called by \code{Py_Finalize()}. The
cleanup function will be called with no arguments and should return no
value. At most 32 cleanup functions can be registered. When the
registration is successful, \code{Py_AtExit} returns 0; on failure, it

completed before the cleanup function, no Python APIs should be called
