Stack from ghstack:
RRefContext is a conventional singleton, used by rref.cpp. At module teardown
time, it's not defined whether rref_context.cpp or rref.cpp will be destroyed first.
We were observing a SIGSEGV because RRefContext is destroyed before a dangling
~UserRRef() call is able to execute. Particularly, the underlying
ctx.agent()->getWorkerInfo(ownerId_) call failed.
This change just avoids the SIGSEGV by forcing an intentional leak, though we still
need to deal with why there's a dangling UserRref at module destruction time.
