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.
