Python 3.14: test_ki_protection_doesnt_leave_cyclic_garbage fails

[musicinmybrain]

The sed command below comments out orjson from test-requirements.txt since it’s not yet installable on Python 3.14. Otherwise, this can be reproduced by simply running the tests in a Python 3.14.0a4 virtualenv:

$ git clone https://github.com/python-trio/trio.git
$ cd trio
$ uv venv _e --python 3.14
Using CPython 3.14.0a4 interpreter at: /usr/bin/python3.14
Creating virtual environment at: _e
Activate with: source _e/bin/activate
$ . _e/bin/activate
(_e) $ uv pip install -e .
(_e) $ sed -r -i 's/^orjson/# &/' test-requirements.txt
(_e) $ uv pip install -r test-requirements.txt
(_e) $ python -m pytest
[…]

This was originally reported in Fedora.

It looks like this may be caused by python/cpython#125603.

A proposed fix exists in python/cpython#125640, so this may be solved upstream in CPython before 3.14.0 final.

Well hopefully we don't need to do anything! (maybe we should drop the dependency on orjson? it seems to just be to load mypy cache faster -- though it's fine to manually override like you did)

[CoolCat467]

It's supposed to be mypy[fastercache], but fails on pypi because orjson is programmed in rust and uses the C api

[jakkdl]

if that's the only fail I think it's time we add a <3.14 specifier to orjson and xfail(sys.version_info>=(3,14), strict=True) to the test and start running 3.14 in CI 🚀

edit: probably a bunch of the --run-slow too due to tooling being behind, but we all love to maintain those :))

How does #3211 look?
