Some of these leaks were introduced by the factory constructor for Array objects (f049ff3bc04daead8c3bb9f06e89e71e2054c82a) but a few others have been around for far longer. This leak was fixed by introducing a ``ArrayCache`` object which has two purposes * Retains ownership of all created ``Array`` objects and destroys them when the ``ArrayCache`` destructor is called. * Mimic the caching behaviour for symbolic arrays that was introduced by f049ff3bc04daead8c3bb9f06e89e71e2054c82a where arrays with the same name and size get "uniqued". The Executor now maintains a ``arrayCache`` member that it uses and passes by pointer to objects that need to construct ``Array`` objects (i.e. ``ObjectState``). This way when the Executor is destroyed all the ``Array`` objects get freed which seems like the right time to do this. For Kleaver the ``ParserImpl`` has a ``TheArrayCache`` member that is used for building ``Array`` objects. This means that the Parser must live as long as the built expressions will be used otherwise we will have a use after free. I'm not sure this is the right design choice. It might be better to transfer ownership of the ``Array`` objects to the root ``Decl`` returned by the parser.
