Subject: [PATCH 1/2] object: Prevent use-after-free in signal connections
Objects trace their signal connections in order to keep the closures
alive during garbage collection. When invalidating a signal connection,
we must do so in an idle function, since it is illegal to stop tracing a
GC-thing in the middle of GC.
However, this caused a possible use-after-free if the signal connection
was invalidated, and then the object itself was finalized before the idle
function could be run.
This refactor avoids the use-after-free by cancelling any pending idle
invalidations in the object's finalizer, and invalidating any remaining
signal connections in such a way that no more idle functions are
scheduled.
