`sqlite3.Row()` crashes when given a `Cursor` whose `__init__` was not called

[aisk]

Crash report

What happened?

sqlite3.Row() reads cursor->description without checking that the cursor was initialized, so a NULL slot segfaults the interpreter:

❯ python3

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import sqlite3
... sqlite3.Row(sqlite3.Cursor.__new__(sqlite3.Cursor), ())
...
