        AGGRESSIVE TEST: Try to reproduce DBC handle segfault during shutdown.
    
        This test aggressively attempts to trigger the segfault described in the stack trace
        by creating many DBC handles and forcing Python to shut down while they're still alive.
    
        Current vulnerability: DBC handles (Type 2) are NOT protected during shutdown,
        so they will call SQLFreeHandle during finalization, potentially accessing
        the already-destructed static ENV handle.
    
        Expected with CURRENT CODE: May segfault (this is the bug we're testing for)
        Expected with FIXED CODE: No segfault
