Description:
------------
When fast_shutdown in shutdown_executor() is non-zero (which is the normal case when PHP isn't compiled with --enable-debug), string keys added to the class table for aliased classes are not freed. This results in a leak of 32 bytes on 64 bit Linux for each call of class_alias().

This isn't an issue on master due to https://github.com/php/php-src/commit/8e01026b829f51d80d62648db9d81263454b2988, but it appears that all other 7.x branches are currently affected. That commit is tied up in a bunch of other GC refactoring, so simply cherry picking it to, say, PHP-7.2 results in other problems. (Not to mention the ABI break it would entail.)

Test script:
---------------
<?php

class C {}
class_alias(C::class, 'foo');

Expected result:
----------------
