Object destruction order needs to be managed manually here to
avoid an occasional segfault at _rthread_mutex_timedlock() with
the following callstack:

        XS_DBI_dispatch()
        XS_DBD__SQLite__st_DESTROY()
        sqlite_st_destroy()
        sqlite3_finalize()
        _rthread_mutex_timedlock()

...on OpenBSD 7.3 (Perl 5.36, DBD::SQLite 1.70v0, DBI 1.643p0,
sqlite 3.41.0).  I'm not sure exactly where the bug is, but I
suspect it's something inherent in Perl's unpredictable
destruction order at process teardown (something I've had to
workaround in the past when dealing with XS extensions).

There's no downloadable debug-* OpenBSD packages to ease
debugging for these components, either.
