Add blog post on free-threaded Python halfway mark

[ngoldbaum]

Adds a blog post on the current status of the free-threaded Python project.

@nascheme you mentioned that you'd like to look this over a couple weeks ago.

Text styling

• The blog is written with plain language (where relevant).
• If there are headers, they use the proper header tags in order to do so (with only one level-one header).
• All links describe where they link to (for example, check the Quansight labs website).
• Any kind of styling that the author uses (for example, bold for emphasis) is consistent throughout the blog.

Non-text contents

• Blog post featured image is in PNG or JPEG format, not SVG.
• All content is represented as text (for example, images need alt text and videos need captions or descriptive transcripts).
• If there are emojis, there are not more than three in a row.
• Don't use flashing gifs or videos.
• If it were to be read as plain text, the blog still makes sense and no information is missing.
