This is an oversight in the test and this can lead to a case where the GC upon noticing that the returned `Socket` instance isn't referenced may garbage collect that instance and thus the `Cleaner` may end up closing the underlying file descriptor. When that happens, the expectations of the test don't hold and thus the test fails as noted in the linked issue.

This should prevent the GC from garbage collecting the instance and at the same time `close()` the returned `Socket` in a deterministic manner.

Marked as reviewed by syan (Committer).

After git apply the patch from https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/22093 and run the test 10k times, all test passed.
