[Backport 3.3] [Bug #20691] Fix use-after-free in WeakKeyMap#clear (ruby#11443)

Fix use-after-free in WeakKeyMap#clear

[Bug #20691]

If the WeakKeyMap has been marked but sweeping hasn't started yet and we
cann WeakKeyMap#clear, then there could be a use-after-free because we do
not call rb_gc_remove_weak to remove the key from the GC.

For example, the following code triggers use-after-free errors in Valgrind:

    map = ObjectSpace::WeakKeyMap.new

    1_000.times do
      1_000.times do
        map[Object.new] = nil
      end

      map.clear
    end

Output from Valgrind:
