Log: Fix bug #80072: Root live tmpvars after GC

Another reproducer without unserialize():

$a[]=&$a == $a=&$b > gc_collect_cycles();

Description:
------------
<?php
$s = 'O:8:"stdClass":1:{s:1:"x";r:1;}';
unserialize($s) % gc_collect_cycles();

This leaks the cyclic object, as we destroy TMPVAR operands with zval_ptr_dtor_nogc(). The
unserialize() implementation manually registers a GC root for the return value, but the
gc_collect_cycles() call here drops it again, because the cycle is not dead at the time of the call
yet.

This is oss-fuzz #25441.
