fix: test_message_iterator.py hangs on Python 3.12

Starting with Python 3.12, `None` is immortal: its refcount operations
are NO-OP and sys.getrefcount() will return a static value of UINT_MAX
on 64-bit and UINT_MAX >> 2 on 32-bit.

This basically transform `test_try_again_many_times` in an almost
infinite loop and hangs the testsuite.

Detect this by checking if the refcount on `None` is incremented after
assigning to a variable and skip the test if it's not the case.

See PEP-0683[1] for the gory details.
