Downcall stubs are never freed

XMLWordPrintable

      Downcall stubs/native invokers are currently never free. After creation they are stored in a cache, and they stay there for the lifetime of the VM.

      We could implement a weak reference cache where the values are NativeEntryPoints, and then register those NativeEntryPoints with a cleaner that frees the downcall stub when the NativeEntryPoint becomes unreachable.
