[issue22996] Order of _io objects finalization can lose data in reference cycles

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

I think that reference loop breaker should be smarter. If we have a loop

    A ⇄ B → C → D

then the order of the finalization of A and B is not defined, but B should be finalized before C and C before D. This should fix unintentional issues with chained io classes because they have no back references.
