As the dtor uses `mem.xfree()` to free the buffer, but read() has used malloc/realloc/free so far. This was only an issue with an enabled GC.
I guess that wasn't a real issue before -lowmem, as most File instances were living on the heap and NOT finalized at shutdown without enabled GC. Anyway, a File cannot mem.xfree() a backend buffer allocated with C malloc; fix it by NOT transferring the buffer ownership to the File and freeing the buffer immediately after writing the object file.
When writing it to file, the File took buffer ownership and freed the data immediately after writing it. Finalization of `*global.params.moduleDeps` with an enabled GC would have tried to free it again, as its buffer was still dangling.
