This is useful for checking that an object can be freed directly by
reference counting, without requiring gc to break reference cycles.
GC is disabled inside the context manager.

Parameters
----------
func : callable
Callable to create object to check
\\*args : sequence
positional arguments to `func` in order to create object to check
\\*\\*kwargs : dict
keyword arguments to `func` in order to create object to check
Examples
--------
