    BoundMethodWeakref objects provide a mechanism for referencing a
    bound method without requiring that the method object itself
    (which is normally a transient object) is kept alive.  Instead,
    the BoundMethodWeakref object keeps weak references to both the
    object and the function which together define the instance method.

    Attributes:
    
    - ``key``: The identity key for the reference, calculated by the
      class's calculate_key method applied to the target instance method.

    - ``deletion_methods``: Sequence of callable objects taking single
      argument, a reference to this object which will be called when
      *either* the target object or target function is garbage
      collected (i.e. when this object becomes invalid).  These are
      specified as the on_delete parameters of safe_ref calls.

    - ``weak_self``: Weak reference to the target object.

    - ``weak_func``: Weak reference to the target function.

    Class Attributes:
        
    - ``_all_instances``: Class attribute pointing to all live
      BoundMethodWeakref objects indexed by the class's
      calculate_key(target) method applied to the target objects.
      This weak value dictionary is used to short-circuit creation so
