@dholmes-ora Should we just have `MetadataFactory::free_metadata` call the destructor for `T` right after `deallocate_contents` and immediately before deallocating? The compiler will be smart enough to omit the call for types that are trivially destructible. That would also solve this bug, preserve any performance, and ensure it cannot happen again easily. It is fairly easy to forget to call `release_c_heap_structures`.
