This fixes a number of block-related issues in the codebase, as noted below. This is a breaking change. The API is changing to support these fixes.
Our flags had an off-by-one which meant our copy/dispose helpers were never being called. This caused other issues too like the refcount system not working properly so blocks would leak.
We were heap allocating a block but setting it as a stack allocated block. The proper behavior is to allocate it on the stack then let the ObjC runtime handle the copying via the compiler-rt.
Add manual copy/release helpers for blocks in case blocks are being passed around Zig code. This is needed because the Zig compiler won't automatically instrument the code like LLVM does for C-family languages.
Our copy helper that called
_Block_object_assignwas passing the wrong pointer value for the first parameter meaning reference counts weren't being incremented properly.
