Incorrect error handling for APIs that can raise exceptions

[erlend-aasland]

For example, in the collation callback two str objects (string1 and string2) are created using PyUnicode_FromStringAndSize. Error handling should happen directly after each call to PyUnicode_FromStringAndSize:

cpython/Modules/_sqlite/connection.c

Lines 1870 to 1875 in 0cb6b9b

	string1 = PyUnicode_FromStringAndSize((const char*)text1_data, text1_length);
	string2 = PyUnicode_FromStringAndSize((const char*)text2_data, text2_length);
	if (!string1 || !string2) {
	goto finally; /* failed to allocate strings */
	}

Other cases where error handling is not done immediately after the API has been used:

• gh-105375: Improve error handling in compiler_enter_scope() #105494
