Bug #20150: Memory leak in grapheme clusters
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20150

* Author: peterzhu2118 (Peter Zhu)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: REQUIRED, 3.2: REQUIRED, 3.3: REQUIRED
----------------------------------------
GitHub PR: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/9414

String#grapheme_cluters and String#each_grapheme_cluster leaks memory because if the string is not UTF-8, then the created regex will not be freed.

For example:

```ruby
str = "hello world".encode(Encoding::UTF_32LE)

10.times do
  1_000.times do
    str.grapheme_clusters
  end

  puts `ps -o rss= -p #{$$}`
end
```
