Bug #20688: Use-after-free in WeakMap and WeakKeyMap
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20688#change-109497

* Author: peterzhu2118 (Peter Zhu)

* Backport: 3.1: DONTNEED, 3.2: DONTNEED, 3.3: REQUIRED
----------------------------------------
GitHub PR: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/11421

We cannot free the weakmap_entry before the ST_DELETE because it could hash the key which would read the weakmap_entry and would cause a use-after-free. Instead, we store the entry and free it on the next iteration.

For example, the following script triggers a use-after-free in Valgrind:

```ruby
weakmap = ObjectSpace::WeakMap.new
10_000.times { weakmap[Object.new] = Object.new }
```

```
