module: fix leak of vm.SyntheticModule
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Previously we maintain a strong persistent reference to the
ModuleWrap to retrieve the ID-to-ModuleWrap mapping from
the HostImportModuleDynamicallyCallback using the number ID
stored in the host-defined options. As a result the ModuleWrap
would be kept alive until the Environment is shut down, which
would be a leak for user code. With the new symbol-based
host-defined option we can just get the ModuleWrap from the
JS-land WeakMap so there's now no need to maintain this
strong reference. This would at least fix the leak for
vm.SyntheticModule. vm.SourceTextModule is still leaking
due to the strong persistent reference to the v8::Module.
