Re-acquire GIL earlier in gdbpy_parse_and_eval

Tom de Vries filed a bug about an intermittent gdb DAP failure -- and
coincidentally, at the same time, Alexandra Hájková sent email about a
somewhat similar failure.

After looking into this for a while (with no results) using ASan and
valgrind, I found that setting PYTHONMALLOC=malloc_debug found the bug
instantly.

The problem is that gdbpy_parse_and_eval releases the GIL while
calling parse_and_eval, but fails to re-acquire it before calling
value_to_value_object.  This is easily fixed by introducing a new
scope.

I wonder whether the test suite should unconditionally set
PYTHONMALLOC=malloc_debug.
