It's not possible to stop tracing an object in the middle of GC. However, by using JS::ExposeObjectToActiveJS(), it is possible to mark an object as reachable for the duration of one GC. This is exactly what we need for closures, to keep the closure's callable object from disappearing while GC is going on. This requires adding a method, prevent_collection(), to GjsMaybeOwned. This method is only valid in non-rooted mode. It also requires a bit of GC API magic to avoid running afoul of some debug-mode assertions. SpiderMonkey master at least has an official API for one of these bits of magic, which we can switch to in SpiderMonkey 59. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=786668
